I put this together all by myself and it was kinda confusing, I ended up building it backwards and had to take the top off and flip it. The drawers are exactly like how everyone says they are, not sturdy and I have to force them to close. You get what you paid for I guess. This is also bigger than what it seems. Very sturdy.
I cant say I shouldnt have noticed. I needed two desks so my twins can do virtual school this fall. As a desk, I assumed it was 28/30 inches tall, but it comes in at a full 32 / yes, as advertised / which is too high, forcing any computer user to crimp their wrists over, use a tall chair, or both. For this oversight I fault myself.
Easy to assemble? Good gawd. If you are an engineer, probably not. If you wonder what the difference is between a screwdriver and a hammer, youll probably invent a few swear words.
My real beef, and maybe its just the two the I ordered: the drawers dont fit. And I dont mean they need a little adjustment and if Id only made fourteen before Id get it.they really dont fit. Once made, I can bang the units into the slides with my fist, but they refuse to budge in or out. Simply too big, making the desk as usable as a piece of plywood stretched over sawhorses, which, by the way, is easy to assemble, has plenty of legroom, and costs about twenty bucks. So, I will spend tomorrow, after putting the desk together today, buying wood and slides and making drawers that fit. Not what I expected.
Look, I know this is mass/produced furniture and it cost a hundred and fifty bucks, but I expect something to at least fit together. By the time I rebox them and haul down to UPS and put up with COVID, its just easier for me to fix it myself. And I have zero confidence in the seller.
Beautiful study desk, and surprisingly sturdy. I had originally bought this as a present for my sister, but ended up keeping it myself. The assembly was mostly easy, even though some of the holes didnt align perfectly. Overall, Im glad I got this! Bought this for Christmas!! Still love it.
Beautiful , sturdy , just perfect . Easy to assemble. The gold is like a bronze yellow gold. The knobs are a different color but are still beautiful. The draws are easy to pull in and out , they dont get stuck like other furniture drawers . Good buy for the money . Ignore my unorganized junk . The bench I bought at target , its not from . It was perfect!
I bought two of these desks, one for each of my daughters room. It has a clean, modern look. Easy to assemble. Doesnt wobble like other desks. Better directions.
Update August 2020: I purchased a second desk for home (first purchase was for work), and while Im still quite happy with the desk, the second one seems to be of a slightly lower quality. One of the drawers doesnt slide very smoothly and makes a grinding noise every time I open and close it. Of all the hundreds of desks Ive looked through on various different sites, this one best suits my needs and the price was right. A four star review seems too low to me, but if I could give 4.5 stars, I would. Even though the holes didnt all match up precisely, I was able to assemble this desk completely by myself at 8 months pregnant. This will make a huge difference for me while out on maternity leave! (And once again, it arrived 1.5 weeks ahead of schedule / yay!)
Original review July 2020: This is a cheap desk, which is apparent by the price tag. That being said, it is a really nice size and feels sturdy. It does everything I need it to do, and the drawers are spacious, if not cheap/feeling. Putting it together was simple and came with all the tools needed. I would definitely recommend it for a small office or home office. Bonus points for arriving a week and a half before I expected it! Very nice.

Good Value
WE absolutely are very pleased with the desk, Easy to assemble for two people and very strong and sturdy and very attractive. Cool!!
Nope. Not again. Money poorly spent.
