I just want to say, last time I saw this up here I pointed people towards the IKEA Bekant desk. Which is a great, and comparable desk. But just yesterday I saw this Arozzi desk in an array of colors at Fry's. I was impressed, the mouse pad that covers the entire desk is nice and much better quality than I expected. The cable cutouts are pretty great too. The approximate 80 dollar difference could easily be worth it for someone who wanted a particular color scheme or general style.

Thanks for the post and the positive feedback about Arena.  Another point, as I mentioned below, unless you live near an Ikea, the Bekant costs a lot to ship.  I live about 45 miles from the nearest Ikea. I added a Bekant to my cart a couple of months ago and they wanted $130 for shipping. That completely changes the equation in terms of price comparison,  too.

Yep, 45.5 miles for me along a path with tolls. 49 without tolls. Living in big ass Texas changes how we view distance. :P

In Southern California we measure it by time.  That 45 miles could take 50 minutes or it could take two hours :) each way.
