First off Wayfair was a very good shopping experience, fast free shipping. First purchase.I bought this desk not expecting much for the price. I bought it because I could not find a L dest to fit the small space anywhere, I looked at all the major sellers. It has really exceeded my expectations. The storage under the center is awesome for your router, modem, and printer. The top looks nice, but i'm sure like most press board it will eventually get roughed up. No problem, the legs are nice and it would be easy to make a nice top with some walnut or reclaimed barn wood. Assembly was a 2 beer project, easy but took a little time. Everything lined up nice for me, others have said not so. One thing you should always do is leave the leg fasteners just a bit loose. Then flip it upside down and mount the top, tighten it good, flip it back over and then tightened all the leg fasteners. Bam Solid. There are a lot of screws, but don't be temped to use an impact gun on this stuff.This review is heavily weighed on price/ value, not to compare it to top of the furniture.It worked out very well for me, very happy with purchase.

First, this is a great side table. It is very sturdy and a perfect size. As you can see in the picture its height is perfect for the arm chair. The only struggle is that the entire thing is pressure fitted together. It will go together even if you think it won’t. You just have to be patient. Love it.

Perfect for what I needed. Able to assemble in roughly an hour. Had a little trouble getting some holes to line up when attaching the top but a little adjusting here and there helped and everything worked out. The shelves underneath are smaller than expected and my printer/scanner wouldn't fit however the desk is large enough for it to rest on top and still comfortably hold multiple monitors and laptop. Great purchase!

I’m a musician, and so far I’ve found this to helpful for my monitors and all of my equipment. I’ve also been able to use this for working at home. My work laptop and personal one are stored on the included shelves. If you live in a small cape cod house like I do, I would highly recommend this desk. It’s sturdy enough and really improved my guest room space.Instructions suck and I actually thought I was missing pieces, but eventually got it together. It does wobble slightly (and I have a lot on my desk), but you get what you pay for and I needed a small L shaped desk to get me through quarantine and not fall apart immediately.

Perfect with a lot of desk space for a small footprint. My 16 year old daughter put it together by herself. As others have said the surface is textured so you need something below your paper to write on. Price was right and delivery was sooner than expected.

Wow! This desk is so what I needed in my WFH space. It’s attractive, functional, stable and nicely colored. Bonus shelves on the bottom where I have put a basket and other desk organizer. Price point is very fair for this desk. BEWARE during assembly my husband dropped a screw then picked up the wrong screwbolt and screwed in one that was too long which ended up going all the way through the top of the particle board desk. This won’t be a problem if you take your time and keep up with your screws. Words to live by... Just saying. Get this desk. For real.

Great value for the price point. I followed the recommendation of keeping all the screws loose until fully assembled then tightening all at once to secure and didnt run into any issues with the two desktop pieces aligning. The top is textured, so if youre planning on writing on the desk, youll need a pad underneath.

This is a great little desk. A little difficult to put together when adding the shelves and top. You also need something to write on (extra sheets of paper for example) because the desktop is textured. Otherwise it fits perfectly and I love it.

The desk is nice and simple to put together. The reason for only 4 stars is a few of the screw-holes on desk top did not align with screws holes on legs. I had to make it work the best I could but it still is sturdy despite not having about 5 screws set in place.

Hey! So I just ordered this desk for my room. It was shipped fast in less than 3 days and it came in a somewhat large package. Mantling it took and hour and a half with me and my friend, it was fairly easy however. One of the screws didn't line up with the hole. But otherwise it was there were no major problems, and it'll be pretty easier having another adult help you build it. Some minor things to take note of is, this desk will take somewhat of a majority of space so look at the specifications (the area; L x W x D) of the desk. Lastly, it's important to take note that the desk is NOT anti-fingerprint, however it will not be so much visible that it will bother you during your multi-tasking, debree and other gunk such as dust may catch on the desk easily.

Ok, ok, ok, I know. This desk is one of the least expensive of its kind on the site. One should not expect great quality. The desktop material feels strangely plastic, but not that big a deal -- its cute I guess. Also, when assembling, the screws did not always line up perfectly with the corresponding holes (3rd world problem, tbh.) Overall, this desk is sturdy, aesthetic, and will do its job for 5-ish years, or until I am willing to spend the funds on my dream desk. So yeah, 3 stars...

The desk itself is as described. It does look cheaper than reviews indicate as well as overall description. Directions for assembly were vague and described parts using letters, but nothing was labeled. The top and shelves are cheap and have a thin covering making it look like wood. My top was damaged, scratched and peeling.

I like how it looks but it was difficult to build because of manufacturing issues. First of all some of the tubes were dented and there was broken styrofoam inside of the box that spilled everywhere. Secondly one of the tubes was missing an indentation that made it possible to put the bolt in. Because of this I had to hammer the tube to make an indentation and tighten the bolt tightly. The holes did not align a lot of the times between the different parts so I had to force them to align with brute strength. I know from building furniture like this that the remedy for that is to have most of the bolts lose until the end and to tighten them all after putting the top boards on (it should have said that in the instructions). I couldn’t do that however since the bolts were barely long enough. Finally the place where the two boards meet is a little sloppy but it’s not a big deal. I like the end product but I wish it would have been packaged and built better because I received a broken desk.

Overall the desk is nice. I needed a lot of space and a sturdy space, which this desk provided. My only real issue is that it is already coming apart from a moderate amount of use in a short amount of time. I use this desk for approximately 8 hours Monday through Friday for about 2 months now, yet the friction from my arms sliding across the table has already began to tear off the siding (see attached photo). This is the kind of durability I would expect from a desk of a third this price.
