I paid to have it installed but the entire desk comes in one piece the only thing you have to install is the three piece leg sections in the drawer handles. I could’ve easily done that so I wasted $125. But the desk is beautiful very spacious specially if you like to use two and three monitors. The two side drawers are very large deep there’s no plug-ins though. Which I don’t mind the space in the front to put your knickknacks is also an extra plus.

Absolutely beautiful desk! Loved that the table top was already built. It was SO EASY to assemble! We had a nightmare with a purchase from another retailer with a similar looking desk (but different colour etc) and it was horrible (from missing parts to needing complete assembly of EVERYTHING.) I’m so glad I returned that desk and found this one from Ashley. Thank you!

The desk is just as pictured; it is sturdy, has ample desktop space for multiple computers or to spread items out, and has good weight to it. It fits nicely in our upstairs "loft area" to create an office. We also bought the matching bookshelf for additional storage. We finally have a "grown up" office that will aid in our work from home, particularly during COVID-19. I highly recommend this piece and the line it comes from.

Although the desk was larger than I anticipated (check dimensions) it is a beautiful piece. I have a dedicated office so this wasn't an issue for me. If you are planning to put it in the corner of a room be sure to measure. I gave 4 stars instead of 5 because there is no place for a keyboard. I Since this is an office desk, I would have expected it. Also the drawer handle sticks out a couple of inches and may be uncomfortable for some because it rests right at your abdomen area.

Desk was delivered in good condition Assembly needs 2 people to get upstairs and turned over assembly was very easy to do I did not give a 5 star rating as the top was a little rough but solved the issue with a couple coats of clear coat finish I bought the desk because it was the only one I found with drawers and a large cable storage area in the back so I can hid all the cables and not have that web of wires to get my feet caught in and my wife likes what will be a clean look

The quality & aesthetics of the desk are not the issue. It is the height of the desk that is part of the issue. Is doesnt matter what height your chair is at either your feet dangle or your elbow is on the edge of the desk cutting off your circulation. Further, you cannot use this with a desk chair that has arms as it bites into the drawers as every chair I looked at is too wide to fit. Further when are able to pull the armless chair close enough so your elbow does not fall off the desk the drawer handle bites into your stomach. I am of average height & weight and only really bought it because of the display ledge in the front as it sits in the middle of the room. Im 5'7" and my husband is 6'2" and has the same issues that I have with this desk. Move on & find a lower height desk - look at the specs this desk is the tallest of any & you wouldn't think an inch or two would make such a big difference.
