Nice, Expensive if not on sale. Will buy the matching file cabinet next. Would be helpful if Staples kept the desk in stock. The first Rep I got was terrible, wouldn't back order it for me and told me to keep calling back and to check the computer. It took us 2 1/2 months to get it in stock. Although when I called back to complain about the previous rep The 2nd rep I got was excellent. Quality is great and having the electical in the desk is key. Elegent enough to mix with your good furniture, to add to a Livingroom or any room in the house. It's a keeper.

I highly suggest you DON'T buy this desk. I'm not sure if it is the quality or it is the horrible shipping - but I have had nothing but trouble. I will say, I love the way the desk looks, it was easy to screw in the legs, and it is fantastic having the electrical cord and the extra USB ports.
I actually ordered two of these desks, one for my husband and one for myself. The first desk came damaged and I called Staples, who sent me another. Fortunately that one was OK. The other desk I thought was OK, but it turns out it was damaged too. Underneath, where the pullout keyboard tray is, there was a small crack. Over the next few weeks, this crack spread and then the opening where the keyboard tray was fell out due to the fact that the space was now too wide. Because it had been more than two weeks, Staples would not do anyting about it. I called the manufacturer and they finally agreed to send me a new table top. Sadly, Fed EX brought the table top and every where there was a "Fragile Handle with Care" sticker, the box was damaged. And yes, this table top was damaged too.
If you should buy this, inspect every square inch thoroughly! Pull out the keyboard tray and get underneath the desk and look everywhere!

Comments about Martha Stewart Home Office™ Blair Desk, Walnut Brown:
This is a nice desk. Our first Martha Stewart desk was extremely damaged. We had to return it and get a new one which set us back 3 days. Now that I have a solid desk I am very pleased but I think the filing cabinet could be a little easier to set up.
Comments about Martha Stewart Home Office™ Blair Desk, Walnut Brown:
I purchased this desk for my son who built his own computer with a taller tower and it actually fits underneath this desk. This desk looks great and doesn't take up a lot of space and the keyboard drawer has enough room to store a tablet of paper and pens and pencils.The walnut color actually matches the other furniture color in the room.

Q:
I am unable to get the USB ports to work. The power strip works and is charging my computer but when I plug something into the USB port it does nothing. I plugged the USB cord that comes with the desk into my computer and that seemed to let the USB ports work. However, I would rather get my power source from the wall outlet and not my computer when charging my electronics. Is this a defect or am I using it wrong?
It is possible that the USB Ports are defective. This product carries a 1-year limited warranty by the manufacturer. Please call Staples Customer Support, with your purchase information, for assistance at 1-800-333-3330.

Q:
Does the drawer/keyboard shelf pull out far enough to place a laptop computer on? How far does it stick out from the front of the desk when pulled out?
I apologize for the delay in you answer. I have attempted to contact Whalen, regarding your concern, but was unable to find out if the keyboard drawer will pull out far enough to sit a laptop.

Q:
The dimensions are unclear. There are 2 Depth dimension. I am guessing that the height is 30".
Also the in-store display literature has typos. Martha is usually more attentive to details.
