Deal Details
Ikea has the GERTON 61 x 29.5" solid Beech wood tabletop on sale at multiple stores across the US.
https://www.ikea.com/us/en/p/gert...-50106773/

YMMV and IN-STORE B&M only. Stock and prices vary per store.
I found mine at the Draper, UT store for $80, though others have found it cheaper at their local stores ($50 @ Portland, OR & $60 @ Woodbridge, VA).

Official word hasn't come out yet, but rumor has it that this tabletop will soon be discontinued because of the increasing price of wood.

Definitely worth it even at $80, considering that this tabletop had been out of stock at many stores for awhile up until around last month.

Has anyone checked Baltimore or Conshohocken, PA? I live between them so want to know if it is worth the drive.
Was in the Baltimore store this afternoon. There were 13 left in stock for $100 each. Also, if anyone nearby is looking for the Ladda batteries they have on sale, they still have plenty of the Japanese-made AAA's for $3.99. AA's are still $6.49

Can someone confirm if this has metal support in it? I will have to cut off at least 10 inches.

Two metal supports. You can unscrew them and pop them out. If you so wanted you could probably even cut down the supports and reinstall them as well.

AFAIK South Philly is not out of stock. Bought 4 from there yesterday evening (25 were listed on the website at the time and I pulled from a stack of at least 20). They list 15 in stock currently. They rang up $59.99. They are like 60lbs and on a high shelf, so if you aren't reasonably strong or in shape, bring a helper.

Thanks to the member who originally confirmed the price at this location.

Oh, I bought the last 2 that were there on the day I posted the price, so I put OOS on it. They probably restocked.

FYI you can't just use this as a desk as is. You need to either sand it (recommended) or just get a polyurethane topping.

I'm moving to a new home in a couple weeks and will be working from home. I want to build a LARGE corner desk in my new office. The walls I am going to use are 142" x 114", so I'm thinking I could buy 3 of these and put two along the long wall (122"), and 1 along the shorter wall (61" + 29" = 90"). Figure I can just buy a bunch of legs and then maybe bracket the table tops together from underneath?

I only did poly because i didnt have an orbital sander. It's holding up alright with daily usage (only did one coat). If I were to do this again, I would had sanded and 2 coats of poly. The poly SMELLS and will smell for a long time, if you have a garage or shed, you are fine. If you don't then make sure you have proper ventilation.
