Phenomenal desk..very easy assembly. This desk is perfect if you have kids that constantly mess with your stuff. In our house, if you leave a pen and paper out...the toddler brigade will get to it. This desk closes up almost like a roll top which is a perfect deterrent. The wood it is made out of is very pretty and doesn’t feel cheap. It is very classic looking.

Love this desk so much! Originally bought this for a bay-window area in our apartment that would only support a small desk. Aside from being gorgeous, it's really versatile. If we're ever entertaining, we can just close the top and turn it into a buffet/bar.Now that we're in a larger home, it still works; now as a piece in our front entryway.One small hiccup with assembly was that the screws to attach the legs didn't seem long enough somehow, so I scrapped them and use strong wood glue instead, which worked like a charm. I bought this a year ago and it still looks perfect.

Works beautifully for an inexpensive bill paying desk in my kitchen. It is just the right size. You must assemble it and this takes a bit of time because every screw and hole must line up just right. This took a while to assemble because one screw had to be loosened so the opposite side screw would thread into the hole.

I am happy with this desk. i purchased the Oak colorway. It is a bit more ash in color than a traditional oak which I prefer. It is tall but that works for me as I am using the desk as a cash station for my salon. There is a few construction flaws that are keeping me from giving it a 5 star. It is heavy! (solid!) I was glad the fedex guy brought it up the stairs for me.

I was a little disappointed with the finish. There are spots that look like drip marks, the hinges were not covered completely and needed to be touched up. As mentioned in many of the reviews the drawers do not close properly. One of the drawers actually has a bit of a lip at the back, not flush. I am hoping to have someone try to fix that so the drawer will close completely. Also as mentioned in numerous reviews, the desk is to tall to really function well. I cut an inch and a half off the legs and now it is right where it should be.

The design, color and functionality of the desk I love. It's not built with care and good quality though. The rails for the sliding keyboard portion malfunctions because the side of the desk aren't build parallel to each other. You can tell because there's a crack on one side where it the wood glue didn't hold together. When sliding out the keyboard table the bearing that's slide it come flying off with the little balls all over the floor. Also one of the wooden legs looked marred but it was painted over so didn't happen during shipping. Nice design but poorly executed.
