What a lovely desk! Great color and cute. The best thing is Being a 76 year old widow, I took the table out of the box and assembled it all myself. My daughter had to stop by to help me put it upright because it’s really sturdy! The packaging was the best I’ve ever dealt with, absolutely no scratches or marks. AND my 17 year old granddaughter loves it! I would definitely buy more or refer to Wayfair again.

What a great desk! Very simple. We got the white it’s very nicely painted. Shiny. Love the legs. Arrived in good condition—has to be put together. We tried to order this desk also under the name Audrey in dk blue but they said it wouldn’t arrive until Feb 5th so we cancelled that desk ordered this one (exact same desk including the dimensions) this ine was on sale!! Worked well all the way around. If I get tired of the white, I’ll paint it with some milk paint.

The desk is beautiful! I’m very pleased with the quality so far. I haven’t assembled it yet but it is a very nice product for the money. …Unfortunately, the delivery wasn’t a good experience. The driver took the package up a flight of winding stairs and set it right by my front door. There is only a small bit of room in front of my door and I wasn’t able to get the huge box inside. I opened the package on my doorstep, dropped one of the drawers and damaged it, and one piece of the hardware was missing. …If you buy the desk, be ready to have a huge box, tons of styrofoam and four pieces of particle board to dispose of. …So it’s not the most environmentally conscious purchase you can make. Five stars for the desk 0 stars for the packaging and delivery.

This was an incredibly good deal and the quality is better than I expected. The color is beautiful in person and as pictured. I know some reviews mentioned damaged parts—maybe they improved their shipping/packing methods because mine was received without issues and was packaged very well. It took longer to unpack it than it did to put together. Shipping was fast.

Picture perfect and super fun! Lightens the mood of any room. Very easy to put together. Yellow is more on the mustard golden side and catches you off guard when you first open the box. After you see the legs you fall in love though. Much better quality than expected at this price point. Perfect size for guest room with still allowing plenty of writing room craft space. Like any piece of wood type furniture I would not write on the desk without several sheets of paper. Treat your furniture how well and there should be minimal issues )

I purchased the yellow desk. Love the color. It came packed well and arrived with no damage. The legs screwed in easily. Solidly built and doesn't wobble. The only problem I had is one of the drawer openings wasn't made well and the drawer won't close all the way. The other is perfect so I assume its an error in fabrication not a problem with all the desks. That being said I would buy it again.

Decent-looking desk feels relatively solid and I like the color (yellow). Super easy to “assemble”. Too bad the desk arrived damaged. The piece of “wood” below one of the drawers is cracked almost all the way through. It’s not super noticeable once the drawer was inserted and I have the other side of the desk facing the door so the area is rather hidden from view, but it’s still annoying that it showed up damaged (but not bad enough to go through the headache of trying to return it). Also, the drawer knobs that come with it are fine but I wanted to change them out to match the aesthetic of the room. FYI, longer machine screws are required because the drawer face is mounted onto the box (which may mean that it will be more sturdy over time, which is good). Just a helpful tip for anyone wanting to change out the hardware.

I like the desk, though don’t love it yet.. One of the drawers came with 2 left drawer slides, had to remove one so the drawer would fit.

All good, expect I found the drawers were a tight fit when actually assembling them into the desk itself. I tried soap and coconut oil to help make it easier to glide in and out, but it probably needs a light sanding. Good value for money, though

Decent desk, with antique legs for sale price of 130. Size is perfect for bedside placement. The drawers are small and are not flush with the frame. They use a central wooden rail so no smooth operation either. Easy 10 min assembly and light weight. The table top is mat finish. Lets see how long the finish survives before scratches start appearing.
