I received the package earlier than expected. The box was loosely taped but 5 stars because the edges were padded with foam. All parts where included and nothing was damaged. I choose this desk because you can use the desk from both sides and did not use the drawer that came with it. I like the open shelf for the computer and leaving the top clear. It took a fair amount of time to put together but one person can do it. I would recommend this desk.

This desk is exactly what I was looking for! Quick delivery and I was able to assemble the desk by myself. I thought it was going to have more of a grey tone but in person it is a very nice brown (which I prefer anyways!).

Fantastic find! I've purchased several different furniture pieces from your site and I've yet to be let down or disappointed in a single item so far. Love the look and design of the desk. The entire purchase experience was really good and everything went well. There's honestly nothing I can say about the chair that could be viewed as negative. I did hire someone to put it together for me, but it didn't seem to be problematic in the least. Excellent choice!

Great desk. Nice size, sturdy and like the cubbies. Helps keep desktop clear. I agree with ALL the other reviews as far as assembly instructions. They are sparse, pictorial only and also incorrect. However, my husband had the desk together in under 2 hours and we love it. Works well for us and in the room.

Was needing a desk for my home office and this purchase, after reading reviews, turned out to be great.Pros:- General build of desk was extremely easy. Despite instructions having zero written direction (only pictures), the desk itself is very easy to put together.- There are minimal pieces, so easy to track items. Bags of screws are all labeled by numbers, as well as pieces to the desk- Surface is smooth- could not find any defects in product- The open spaces on the back of the desk are great to hide cordsCons:- Despite the desk being easy to put together, the sliding drawer was by far the most difficult and similar to other reviewers, I struggled a lot with this. You are provided with tracks (what the drawer slides on), however there are no pre-drilled holes in the wood for the tracks and it is NOT easy to drill holes. I had an electric drill and still had trouble, but managed, after much aggression and muscle, to get the 4 nails in. - It's also very difficult to determine where on the wood the tracks should be screwed in, so you'll have to a bit creative and measure a few things. Once the tracks are on, it was also challenging (with at least just one person) to drill the sliding track portion to the drawer itself. I actually never successfully did this, so the drawer is currently sitting in the slot (looks fine). - I think i was shorted two large screws, however i bought those at the hardware storeOverall, id give the desk a great rating and have received a number of compliments!

I love the style of this desk. It was easy to put together; HOWEVER, you must be cognizant of which direction to place the short boards in the middle. I realized way too late that the circular attachment hardware can be seen because I placed the board the wrong way. Only way to fix this, is to take the whole desk apart and start over. I dropped to a 4 star for two reasons...1) directions are pictorial only and hard to decipher, and 2) corner of top of desk was chipped off during shipment.

Perfect for what I was looking for. I received it a couple of days after placing the order. I was able to assemble it myself (I'm a petite person) in about an hour and 15 minutes, and the instructions were easy to follow. The other reviews about the desk being heavy are accurate, I had to slide the box into the room I needed to assemble it in and then use precision in trying to line the top pieces up. Happy with the results!

I LOVE this desk, however... I am not the best at putting things together and the directions came with no written explanation. I could figure everything out except for the special screws... Otherwise it took me about two hours to put together the entire thing, but I left out the drawer because either there was no place for the screws for the tracks to go into or I could not find the place. So I LOVE my desk... with no drawer. It has quite a lot of storage space for a "writing" desk. Pros: beautiful and lots of storage and desk top spaceCons: Putting it together

Great look and helpful to have the open shelves. I have mine flush against the wall so I store old albums in the back one but the front two shelves are nice to have. Only issue is packaging of item and shipping: corners were not well protected and got damaged in transit on several pieces. We worked around it but they should add those little corner foam inserts to avoid this issue.

I am giving this product 4 stars instead of 5 because it was so hard to assemble. The instructions were worthless and I messed up multiple times while putting it together. Overall, I love the piece now that I have it together - but if there were better assembly instructions it definitely would've been worth 5 stars.

The product looks great. It's heavy and sturdy. It's a great product that definitely adds to the personality of the space you put it in. Make sure you put it on a very flat surface otherwise it will wobble a lot. The insturctions to put it together are pretty bad. I had to move back a few steps while putting it together in order to get it right. All in all, 3 stars.

This product is poorly put together. The welds aren't well don on the legs and the fiberboard cracks and chips easily. Mine was chipped when it arrived and when putting it together, the screws poked all the way through the bottom side-luckily it can't be seen. All of the pieces weren't labeled and the assembly instructions were vague causing me to move and remove pieces. It was time consuming and frustrating for such a small piece.
