I want to put a small/tiny computer desk in my bedroom. Enough to fit a monitor and a laptop docking station. Keep in mind I have another room that is an office, but I just want something to dock my laptop, browse stuff, and dump my keys, phones,etc on it...

Must haves
1. Dark/black wood or wood-ish
2. Small
3. Contemporary-ish
4. Relatively inexpensive around $150 or less

Nice to have
1. Made In USA
2. Glass top

Something from staples would suffice except most things are not made in USA. No luck at costco. Something that I wouldn't be afraid to trash a bit.

Looked there. Nothing and it ain't cheap. Some desks are closer to $200 for particle board.

Believe it or not, Amazon

Believe it or not, Amazon sometimes has a good selection of this type of stuff. Worth a look.

And if you pay them $79/year, they will ship you anything in 2 days with no shipping costs. Such a deal.

We looked at Ikea (and all over SD County) for a similar desk and were surprised to see how little they had in the way of very small/compact computer desks.

Believe it or not, Walmart seems to be the best bet, even better than most office supply/furniture stores. The only problem is that they are not likely to be made in the USA -- good luck finding anything that is...we really tried.

Would any of these work?
