This desk came in just a few days after I ordered it! It was easy to assemble. The gold was just like the picture and it’s the perfect size. The wood looks like good quality. I’m hoping to keep this desk for many years and for many uses.

The desk is nice, good quality, sturdy. It is dark wood, darker than I thought it would be from the pictures. I wanted it to be a bit lighter and brighter. The drawer also arrived damaged (it will not open more than a few inches) but it was easy to get a replacement top ordered.

It's very nice. My only complaint is that mine is a bit wobbly. It could be my flooring or that the screws aren't placed/tightened correctly. Who knows? I have a minor scratch on the gold detail that's on the back of the desk, but you aren't able to see it with my monitor covering it.

The desk itself is really beautiful but it is WAY darker in person than in the picture. It's almost like an espresso brown...not a warmer lighter brown like pictured. I will be keeping it but was definitely disappointed in the color

Malheureusement, comme ça été le cas avec plusieurs de mes commandes Wayfair, l’article est arrivé endommagé. Ce n’est pas énorme et pas assez pour un retour mais c’est assez pour que ça devienne fatigant à la longue. Dans ce cas ci, il y avait des égratignures sur le métal et deux poques, une sur le coin du bureau et l’autre sur le tiroir. De plus il était clair qu’il s’agissait d’un retour car certaines pièces n’étaient pas emballées. Le meuble lui même n’est pas aussi beau que sur les photos, la couleur du bois est plus foncée que prévue et les accents or sur le dessus et sur les pattes sont de matériau et de couleur différente. Bref, si je l’avais vu avant de l’acheter je ne l’aurais pas acheté.
