I am using a Galant frame + T legs + white Vika Amon table top.
At first, I put my tower casing on the table top. But occupy too much space and clutter. Now I put it below, beside the table leg sitting on a DIY plank with 4 wheels ($4 Daiso).

Its not better, but I bought it cheap $19. It turns yellowish after a year.
You can consider getting the kitchen tops which are water resistant and much easier to maintain. e.g NUMERÄR, PRÄGEL.

not sure if its on display, but you have to go to the "warehouse" area and ask the person by the computer to print out the receipt, pay than go another counter to collect.

All the galant series table tops and legs are on display at tamp branch. Including colors and corner and straight table tops.

No problem. One thing to note though, the actual finish on Galants are not exactly very good, but thats perhaps because I've seen much better finished wood work.

The pieces they have as the demo have the best finish I've ever seen on Galant table tops, but the actual thing I bring home is never close to the finish as their demo.

I'm probably gonna lacquer and sand down my galant table top when I have the time, using my mouse on it without mousepad feels like gliding on road.

Is it due to the colour difference?? There is a dark brown, light brown and white colour, maybe some colour have diff finish.... I take note of the finish, but as long as it is smooth, i'm okay with it... lol, quite a sui-bian person..

u mean demo is better than actual one

can complaint and ask them

Not using this. But I don't like it because there is no support frame except for the back. The table may start to sag under the weight of a computer monitor + bookshelf speakers. especially MALM particleboard which are weak compared to solid wood.

want to get a wall shelve also very hard. all ikea stuff the width is so small... been finding hard to get those wood to put for printer.. scanner.. Zzzzzzzz

bought a grey btw..
actually i like the white but dirty easily...


due toooo many ppl, my item will only delivery on thur

For those with the Galant tables (non L-shaped, normal straight table), can i check with you all if the A-Legs will protrude out of the table's 'area'. Like if the table is 120x60, and height is set to 70, will the legs extend out of the 60cm area, total width will be 60+?
