Furnishing an office can be a big expense on top of all the equipment you need. As if office equipment wasn’t expensive enough. Anyway, you can achieve furnishing the office inexpensively if you shop around in the right places.
IKEA
One of the suppliers of furnishings is IKEA. If someone says Sweden, people automatically think of IKEA. They are now a major international supplier of home furnishings at inexpensive prices. The only place to buy IKEA products is at IKEA, you won’t find anything on sites like eBay or Amazon.
It’s a great place to start looking to furnish your office and a couple of suggestions for printer stands are the GUSTAV Laptop Table, Birch Veneer and the JONAS Desk with Pull-Out Panel, Birch Veneer.
Both these pieces would make ideal printer tables/stands although neither was designed exclusively for a printer. The GUSTAV Laptop Table, Birch Veneer which has a pull-out work surface and storage space for your laptop. It comes in a choice of birch veneer in black and brown. The dimensions are: 50 3/8″ Length by 16-7/8″ Width by 31 7/8” Height.
There is a cable outlet in the pull-out work surface and the compartment at the back makes it easy to hide and organize cables, chargers and power strips. Easy top clean with a moist cloth and has a nice simple design and would be a very stylish piece to house your printer. It has a lock and key provided and storage space for your papers and cartridges etc.
Another good choice from IKEA is the JONAS Desk with Pull-Out Panel, Birch Veneer, with dimensions of 59-1/2 ” Width by 33-1/2″ Min. Depth/ 53-1/8″ Max. Depth by 28 3/4″ Height. It has a pull-out panel that can be attached to the right-hand or left-hand side of the desk. Again easy clean with a damp cloth.
These are typical of IKEA pieces and although it does not specifically say that these are printer stands or tables, you may use either as such, and are good examples of the kind of range you can expect to find at IKEA, and all very affordable.
The GUSTAV Laptop Table, Birch Veneer is available through IKEA at $149 and the JONAS Desk with Pull-Out Panel, Birch Veneer, a mere $129. IKEA is a great place for stylish and unique designs but when it comes to printer stands you may want to look further afield.

It is common for individuals to look at the different prices of items in magazines and give up on the idea of ever having a fully decorated office.
However, if the homeowner chooses to purchase their pieces of furniture at a more affordable store, they can buy more pieces to complete the room. A printer stand is incredibly beneficial in an office because it keeps the printer somewhere safe, while also eliminating a lot of the mess from wires and office supplies thrown about.
Supplies and accessories can be safely stored underneath the stand and be free from cluttering the desk or other important surfaces. Purchasing a printer stand will save the homeowner a lot of money, while also giving them a brand new piece of furniture that will enjoy for a long time to come.
