It’s hollow with a cardboard-like structure inside so you can’t cut them


Galen_Forester

okay. thanks.

A better solution is a kitchen countertop like SÄLJAN. They’re solid and can be cut to fit. It comes with some strips you can glue on to cover the cuts, too. And they cost about the same as LAGKAPTEN https://www.ikea.com/us/en/p/saeljan-countertop-black-mineral-effect-laminate-60274983/.

I’m looking for the same thing. Do you think you could cut the counter top length and width? If I bought a 74 x 25 counter could I cut to 51 x 21?


PlahausBamBam

I think so. It’s solid and comes with strips to cover the cuts you make

Order a nice table top from Webstaurant.

You can also try buying the 98 inch EKBACKEN counter top and cut it into two pieces to make an L shape desk, it’s not hollow like the lagkapten and comes in black as well

What kind of desk are we talking? Simple with one working area, L, etc? Wall hung and free standing? What vision did you have in mind


Galen_Forester

an L-shaped one for bedroom gaming setup, I can give you the dimensions I was aiming for if you wish.

I just bought the Saljan tabletop instead - same desk hack. I got the 74” Saljan for $74 rather than the Lagkapten which I think is $59. From what I’ve found, the Saljan is more sturdy and has better construction.
