Generated example

Eligibility

| Option | Width ≤110cm | Depth ≤60cm | Delivered cost ≤$250 | Overall |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Desk A | 120 cm — Fails | 60 cm — Meets | $150 incl. delivery — Meets | **Fails** |
| Desk B | 100 cm — Meets | 60 cm — Meets | $220 + unknown delivery; qualifies if delivery ≤$30 — Unknown | **Unknown** |
| Desk C | 105 cm — Meets | 55 cm — Meets | $180 incl. delivery — Meets | **Meets** |

Desk A is excluded for width.

Choice and tradeoff

Recommended: Desk C. It is the only option confirmed to meet all three hard constraints, so it's the sole verified eligible choice right now.

Your stated strong preference is adjustable height, which Desk C does not have — Desk B does. Desk B remains a live contender: it meets width and depth, and its price ($220) leaves room under the $250 cap. Its eligibility hinges on one unknown fact — the delivery charge.

Condition for Desk B to become the recommendation: if Desk B's confirmed delivery charge is $30 or less (bringing delivered cost to $250 or under), it becomes eligible, and given your strong stated preference for adjustable height, it would then be the recommended choice over Desk C.

If delivery exceeds $30, Desk B fails the cost cap and Desk C stands as the recommendation, since no other option meets the hard constraints.

Resolve it

Next step: Ask the Desk B seller for the exact delivery charge to your location. If it's $30 or less, Desk B is eligible and preferred; if higher, proceed with Desk C.

Provisional result: Desk C is a safe, fully verified choice today if you need to buy without delay.

What to supply next time: Desk B's confirmed delivery fee (and, if relevant, any change in Desk A's width or Desk C's price).
