Perfect desk for my elementary school child during COVID. She has a small bedroom and the cubbies provided ample storage for supplies and books without taking up any more of her limited floor space. For an adult, I think it would feel too cramped though.

Quality is average for the price. Using it for a kids craft/work space so I didn’t want to spend a ton since it will likely get marker/glue/etc on it. I’m overall happy with it. Didn’t take long to out together but it didn’t line up as well as I would have liked when screwed in place (see second photo). Hopefully it won’t effect the strength of it).

I like the design of this desk but there are some things to keep in mind when assembling. First, the glue provided is not nearly enough, so make sure you have some of you own on hand. Second, I had to use an awl and an electric drill to install the back pieces. Third, pay close attention to where you place the wooden pegs on the six shelving pieces, it does matter. Read the instructions all the way through before starting. Not difficult if you have the right tools.

It‘s just like the pictures and wasn’t too hard to assemble. It’s not the MOST sturdy, but it does the job and I don’t feel like it could give out at any moment. The only thing that I would change is that I wish they used screws with white tops instead of black ones for the backboarding of the shelves, but it’s not in very visible spots anyway. The desk provides a lot of room to store things while remaining small and not taking up too much space, which is perfect for my bedroom. Overall I’m very happy with my purchase.

I've been wanting a desk like this for years for my craft table and I just couldn't spend more than $300 on a craft desk, then I came across this one and thought, "wow this is perfect!" Until it arrived and three boards were damaged and missing some assembly tools. The instructions weren't all that helpful on some pages where they didn't say which size dowels were needed so I had to basically make a guess. Customer service was very simple to call and request missing and broken pieces in order to finish the project, they were more than happy to send the requested items free of charge. Putting the desk together took longer than I wanted because I had to wait for new boards to come in the mail. (7-14 business days) Once the desk was put together it was very wobbly but once you drill the backings on all the backsides that are needed, the desk becomes more solid and does not wobble anymore.

We received it and though the box was damaged, everything was fine. Other reviews commented on the glue and they are absolutely correct. There is not nearly enough and it does not appear to be a wood glue. I encourage people to buy wood glue and some Q-tips for applying glue to the hole where the peg is going to go and the peg itself. The instructions do not include helpful hints such as that. Also, the instructions call for #5 pegs once putting the desk together. The #5 pegs are too long for this part of the project and I needed to cut the pegs to the appropriate lengths. There are enough pegs but you will need a measuring tape, pencil and a fine-toothed saw. Overall a fine desk for the money. It took me 2.5 hours from opening the box to completion.

The item fits my little nook area perfectly. Was simple to put together. And in usual Wayfair fashion, arrived earlier than promised. However, I only rated it a 3 because while it looks good, it is very shaky and we followed instructions perfectly. I thought adding books would help keep it stable, but it’s still shaky. I think I have to buy brackets and try to add stability on my own.

The quality wax not the best! :( there were not enough pegs for assembly, so I had to go buy some. Also, the holes were not drilled properly, so the pieces didn't fit together well sometimes. One of the top shelves was cut incorrectly (or was the wrong piece), and it caused the side to stick out from the front edge (see pictures).

Very light (flimsy) made of cheap material, feels like hollow pieces. One part/board is longer that is supposed to be so when you put the pieces together, the top of the table is not aligned, there's a space in between no matter how you crunch them together. Assembly is okay, it took us more than an hour to finish. I just hope it will last for at least a year.

Ummm where are the instructions Not here, and do I use my own screws Well it did not come with that either. I am very upset this is not worth 50, let alone the 300 and something I paid.

Pedestal

The pedestal base is designed to perfection and are suitable for socializing or ad-hoc working. They are also perfect for café areas. This base has a central column designed to maximize leg space.

The base is also comfortable to sit at. The pedestal tables are a go-to on all sorts of projects, because it's easy to nestle them into corners and avoid the hassle of working around table legs. The base makes the desk to be heavy. Almost all tables supported on a single pedestal are delicate. They are top-heavy and can sometimes lack adequate bracing.
