There is a lot of character packed into this little desk. I love how it looks old but it's not 'beat up' old. The craftsman could have been a bit more careful with the staining, but overall the workmanship is good quality. I like that it’s small enough to move around, because I like to rearrange my furniture. I’ve got a set of ‘fake book boxes’ that are displayed on top, a candle and a Hummel figurine. My bills and junk mail are stashed in the drawer out of sight until I’m ready to go thru them. Keeps the clutter under control in a very tasteful way!

My husband purchased this for me for Christmas. I have been wanting this for 2 years and finally pulled the trigger. I am not disappointed. when it was dropped of in our driveway, it was packaged great. No chips or cracks. It comes in 2 pieces, desk and legs. The directions were not very helpfull, however easy to figure out and set up. I have been loving this, using my laptop on this desk. Fits nice. I would recommend this to anyone.

Highly recommend!I was looking for a small desk for myself in our bed room with traditional style furniture. This table is absolutely best addition. The color is the same as on the picture, they did a good job there.Arrived in one box. Very very easy to put together. My husband usually do things like that but this time he wasn't home and it took 10 min for me to get it together. The only thing to know is it is heavy. Good quality and beautiful color, just use sliders or someone's help to move it.Excellent costumers service too! Answered all my questions, very helpful.Overall I wish every purchase on-line is as pleasant and easy as this one.THANK YOU!!!

I'm very happy with my new desk. I bought it as a Christmas present for myself and was very excited when I opened the box. It is a very sturdy piece of furniture and it arrived without any scratches. All I had to do was put the legs on which was very easy. My nieces had fun finding the 5 hidden drawers. The desk fits in beautifully with all my antique furniture and is large enough to do simple crafts on.

I did my greatest writing at this desk and miss still everyday. I felt at peace sitting there for hours writing my master pieces. Of which I write no more. I pray someday I will have it once again for me to write my final writing with something for everyone in it. The greatest one yet! I will keep trying as I may to get the money to get me another one. My grandfather clock and this desk were stolen at the same time. Someday <3

This desk is a story of pros and cons. Perhaps it's best to review by listing them.Pros:Excellent packaging. Despite some box dings in shipping, all parts were intact.Excellent aesthetic design. It's just a beautiful piece.Excellent parts fit. All drawers fit without being too loose or tight.Cubbies and hidden compartments. A pleasant surprise!Cons:The holes for the bolts weren't deep enough. I had to use a drill to deepen them.The wood is not a superior grade. Think kit furniture.The stain was incompletely applied. A furniture touchup pen is needed.Despite three bolts each, the leg joins are a structural weak point. DO NOT drag on carpet. Lift to move.As the stain is light and the wood is a little soft, I am going to get a piece of Lexan cut to fit the writing surface.I would still recommend this desk, but buyer beware - this is not a $2,000 piece of furniture. At its regular price I would rate it as average value. It was a good value at the sale price though.

I was very excited about buying this desk. However, I found out when I received it that it was really quite useless as a secretary desk--the cubbyholes and drawers are too odd-sized for envelopes, bills, or anything one wants to do at a desk. It is very top heavy and when I lifted one side slightly to straighten out a wrinkle in the rug, to my shock and amazement, one of the legs broke off . If you buy this desk, make sure you have four strong people around to lift it all straight up in case you need to smooth out any rugs.
