We bought this desk as a placeholder in our office while waiting for a larger desk, and this one will be moved to our walk-in closet for late night consults. It's a really streamlined look, we're very happy.

Great little laptop desk. Just what we were looking for. The assembly instructions took a while to figure out, but in the end it took about 2 hours to completely put together. One set of holes were slightly off and took a little effort to install the screw. All in all, a good desk for the money.

I got this to replace my make-up vanity and I like this little desk a lot. It's small enough to fit in the corner, and it looks great: clean lines, nice wood color, good contemporary style legs... and two large, handy drawers. I'm very pleased with this purchase

Quite sturdy. We have ordered several desks for our office in the past year and none of them were as sturdy for our therapists to do their documentation on. It was also easy to assemble. Would definitely purchase again.

Beautiful desk, and it’s made in Denmark! Scandinavian style. The light beige color matches my bedroom furniture. Love it! It’s small, but will fit a laptop and an additional screen, some papers, and a desk lamp, and that's exactly what I needed. Two years later, in Sept 2022, I bought it this time in white gloss for my daughter's bedroom - and it is gorgeous as well. It has 2 handy drawers for pencils and pens. I put it together in 3.5 hours - figuring out the pull-out drawer assembly was the hardest part, but I figured it out. Definitely recommend!

This turned out to be a really nice desk for the price. It arrived quickly and undamaged. I gave it a good rating only because of the assembly instructions. Especially the drawer section, which was very hard to understand, be patient. Otherwise a decent desk.

Difficult to put together and the directions were hard to follow - pack your patience for this little project - and plan extra time. Overall it does the job for what I bought it for. I bolted a succulent planter (purchased separately) to incorporate it with the rest of the plants at the end of my lanai.

This is the worst item I have purchased from Overstock. There are no labels on the parts hence making it a task to put together. I may have to just return this one.
