Chairs need more room than the desk does. At 140 cm by 65 cm, plan for a chair behind each used side, and check 73 cm of height against the chairs you already own.

What the tape measure says

The room decides more than the photo.

The ANFALLARE / ALEX desk is 140 cm by 65 cm, standing 73 cm tall. The top is half the story: measure the chairs that go around it and the room left to push them back.

Leave 80 cm behind a pulled-out chair, and check the stair turn against the longest box before delivery day.

At 140 × 65 cm it covers 0.91 square metres of floor, and at 73 cm tall it reads as low and wide in the room.

Wipe spills straight away and use coasters under hot cups. Felt pads under the legs save the floor and the joints.
