This desk is great. It is very sturdy, but somehow I managed to bring the pieces inside on my own (this and the Hutcherson High Boy TV Stand were delivered while I was gone, so I had to ask a friend to stop by and put the boxes in the garage for me). The top of the desk comes preassembled. Your task is just to assemble the legs and put them on. That part was very easy, with clear directions. I would suggest that you have someone help you stand it upright. The color is just as pictured, and the finish is very smooth. I am waiting for the lime green office chair that I picked out on Wayfair.com to come back in stock. Excellent quality. Can't wait to use it!

Great size and construction. Very easy to assemble and the grey color looks just like the color on the screen. There was a slight flaw on the front drawer, but should be easy to repair. I will be recommending this desk to clients!

This table is perfect! the desk portion comes in one piece so you just have to attach the legs. This is great so you don't have to worry about wobbly desk drawers. The design is sleek and looks like the picture. We got a white one and it looks perfect in our work room. Sleek, modern, and chic, definitely worth the money.

This was a gift for my granddaughter and she loves the desk. It is fresh looking, streamlined for her bedroom. It has useable drawers that are sized perfectly for paper, pencils and art supplies. She picked the wood legs to appeal to the natural rustic look she likes. It is functional and beautiful at the same time.

The desk was easy to assemble and looks great! The drawers are not as deep as the desk, but they're still spacious enough for me. I was deciding between the gray and the white color, and I'm glad I went with the gray because it looks great in person. Would highly recommend!

I LOVE MY desk...i got it in the blue color. It looks great. it's very heavy, so you'll need help lifting it out of the box. I was able to put it together myself...it took around 15 minutes. you'll need a screwdriver to install the legs. it's a sturdy piece and I really love it.

The desk looks lovely and is easy to set up. It's heavier than expected, but that's a good thing because it feels more solid. The top of the desk seems to chip easily, so I'm going to purchase a writing pad to keep it looking nice. I would definitely buy again.

This desk is super simple to put together and looks very sleek. My only complaint is that it was packaged with a ton of styrofoam, which definitely preserved the desk but made quite a mess when I was unpacking it from the box. It was also a bit dusty, but that was easy to clean. The drawers are not the full size of the desk, but big enough for a few essentials. Definitely a good purchase.

Love the desk except for the drawers. They could be deeper to give more space to store things. Plus the drawers can't be opened at the same time. The alignment is off so the sides of the drawers but each other.

Firstly, the package came a little beaten up. Was scared to open the box and find out everything broken or scratched but the packaging was good enough to hold the pieces together. About the desk, it was easy to install but there were few chip on the top of the desk and on the side of the desk where grey paint was missing. I wanted to return it and get a better piece but my wife insisted to just keep the product and she can cover spots up.

Loving it! It's the perfect size for this little nook I have in my room, using it as a vanity rather than a desk. The legs are a big uneven and wobbly, but that might be due to uneven floors in my old house rather than the legs themselves.

This desk is great as a computer desk as well as a writing desk. Large enough space where I don't feel crowded. The finish is a nice matte black, easy for a computer mouse to run over without loss of tracking. It's a little higher than I'd like but it seems difficult to find anything shorter than 30 inches high. Easy to assemble but it's kind of heavy so lift it with a friend!

Great construction, easy to put the legs on. I took a star away because I wish there were options for different color finishes for the legs, although the color finishes for the top are many. Drawers are also extremely tiny in relation to the size of the desk. A lot of top space.EDIT***I can't type on this desk! If I put my laptop on it and type, the entire thing shakes a bit and makes a small rattling noise. And I bolted the legs on very tightly. I wouldn't mind the shake if it wasn't accompanied by the noise--it gets very annoying. I suppose it's because the legs are made of a lighter wood than the top, but if you think this would bother you, I'd suggest going with something that has sides and not just legs for more stability and less shaking. Just to clarify, it's built very well, very sturdy, but just has a slight shake. And I'm using it on carpet.

This desk is so cute but it arrived with weird scratches in the paint. Wayfair was great and sent me a new one free of charge without having to send back the first desk. The only thing is....the second desk arrived with more damage than the first one! I decided to just use the first one but as I am using it I notice it scratches super easily and the drawers do not come out smoothly. I really wanted to like this desk but the quality just is not there. Oh well..
