Hello lemmy, I dropped a monitor and it hit the corner of the furniture. Luckily furniture survived with minor injuries.

Monitor is 24" 1080p used as 2nd screen in office (Dell P2417H)

Is this trash?

Edit: monitor hit hard from decent height. Im surprised there is no damage on case or plastic LCD cover (not sure is it called like that, I mean the glass like thing that protects the screen)

I did this too a couple of months back. I felt so stupid since it was avoidable. Don’t know how it works where you live, but I was able to use my home insurance to get back like 80% of the purchase price, which made replacing it less painful.

Thx. Unfortunately I have no insurance for items in my house.

Aww, that’s a bummer. :(

Man, check how much it would cost, it's usually so cheap that it's not worth taking a chance that your place burns down and you're left with nothing because your didn't want to spend 20$/month on insurance!

Thank you for being considerate. I have insurance against fire and some other stuff, but didnt pay extra to cover all items I have. I will check again, but afaik normal policies dont cover damage that I caused myself
