Scratches and poorly together
Desk is full of storage however scratches extremely easy. My floor mat rubbed against it and now the drawers look like they had been chewed up by a dog. The desk is only a month old. One of the drawers is not staying together. Very disappointed in the quality of this desk. I know it was not going to be a long term desk but I figured at least a year before it fell apart.

Great for the price but…
It’s a low cost item with low quality wood and coating. It is better than most in many ways. But it could be better. And the instructions were better than most but could have easily been better. Some of the different hardware looked identical but wasn’t and I made a big mistake because of it. That should have been noticed as I’m sure I wasn’t the first person to make...

Very Nice Desk
This desk is very pretty and solid. It fit perfectly in the space we had. We really love this desk. I would have given it 5 stars if the laminate did not scratch and chip so easily. You will need a small chair for this desk. Any little bump from an executive sized chair will damage the laminate. Otherwise this is an awesome desk for the cost.

Beautiful desk!
I purchased this desk online and it was more beautiful once set up. I would recommend paying professionals for the set up of the desk because my neighbors took a long time putting it together. It’s very functional and perfect for a small-medium sized corner.

Not as expected
I figured it would be a little wider and the drawers as long as the desk but that was not the case.

Great desk for price
This desk once assembled is very nice! The wood is sturdy and strong the drawers all work perfectly and it looks very nice. The look is important to me as I am now working in my living room! I like the drawer sizes and that one of them is a file drawer. The down side is the assembly... there are many pieces and parts (all numbered and lettered) and it took severa...

Love it!
Easy to understand instructions it took me 2 evenings to put this together by myself. I needed help with the top pieces because they are heavier bit the rest I did myself. I ordered cherry but it looks more dark brown which is actually perfect for me.

Drawers
It's not cherry it's dark brown it took my husband and my son two days to put it together the predrilled holes on the side with the three drawers are wrong causing the top drawer to hit the top of the desk and it and the middle drawer don't stay shut.

Totally happy
The desk was delivered within the promised time and they even have assemblers to come out and put it together. The whole experience was seamless and so easy for me and I really appreciate it! And I love my beautiful new desk!

Meh
I saw a review on here on how easy this desk scratches….very true. Already has several knicks and scratches just from regular use. It was pretty frustrating to put together. Some of the holes didn’t line up for the top part so I just couldn’t use those anchors… I should have just spent a bit more for something nicer.

Fits my dark wood motif.
Difficult to assemble. Took me three days but since I am retired and homebound it gave me something useful to do. An extra persons help when setting the two desktop panels might have kept me from scratching the laminate on one which I repaired (and poorly) with a touch up pen. I cover up the scar with a mouse pad so its not noticeable. I also messed up one of the ...

Adequate for the Money
The desk really looks quite nice when finally put together. I'm fairly good at construction projects but this one took most (read all) of the afternoon to put together.
