Computer Armoire Basics

A computer armoire is a computer desk of sorts, with the area where the computer is housed being enclosed by one or more doors of some kind. Though they can be stylish, beautiful and very functional for hiding away work when it's not needed, there are many things to consider about this sort of computer furniture before you purchase one. These considerations have to do with your needs, your style and the features offered with it - all things that are important to understand.

The first thing to consider about buying a desk are your personal needs. Whether you are buying this for your home or your office, you need to take into account the space you have and the space an armoire will take up. They are like a large cabinet that sometimes stands five-six feet high and usually measure at least four feet wide, so think about that when you're planning space for it.

Another thing to think about is whether your computer and your personal office needs require such a desk. Do you work in an office that doubles as a comfortable sitting/talking area, like a doctor's office, and want the ability to hide away your computer and work in order to focus on that when you need to? Do you use your computer constantly and as an integral part of your day, therefore never needing the choice to cover your monitor? These things have to be taken into account before you should ever shop for a computer armoire.

The last thing to consider when thinking of one is what kind of style you would want. They come in several, from wicker bottom and wicker doors to doors that fold outward to double as cork board or calendar space, to more modern ones for computers that have only one large door and a glass surface for your desk top. Finally, consider the small stuff. Do you need a lot of storage underneath and above your computer, or are you a minimalist kind of person? Will you need it on wheels for easy moving, or will it be in one spot forever?

Taking it all into account can be very helpful when you begin shopping to purchase a computer armoire, as well.
