This desk is the perfect size and color for where I have placed it in my home (a small corner). The color is a true brown, though as dark as I thought it would be. The shelves are nice to have, as the workspace isn't too large.

I’m leaving my review a few years after purchasing… it still is in use! It has made a few moves and holding up. I’m leaving 4 stars as some of the small pieces have detached. While it doesn’t implicate there structure, it is visible. All said, I would buy it again.

Does this come with the tools required to assemble it?
Yes, it does. It is very easy to assemble but remember when screwing the rails to the underside of the top to use the shorter screws, the long ones could go too far and damage the top. Also, I used wood glue and it is as sturdy as you could possibly need. Very nice little desk.
