Nice desk, read this review for tips
By P. Scott
I am between 3 and 4 stars with this one but am opting for 4.

First of all, this desk looks really nice and has all the features that I wanted in a desk. It has large drawers, an open space on the upper-right below the top to place things that can still be easy to grab yet don't take up desk space. It is a really nice design in the layout respect. Looks-wise, The desktop is a rich brownish (not good at explaining colors) wood that contrasts the black nicely while still matching with the black-theme of the room that it is in. The handles on the drawers are very stylish (rustic looking) and the drawers are butter-smooth.

The one MAJOR downfall is that the wood is NOT treated. This results in 2 issues. First, the desktop bubbles up. I use it as a surface for my computer's mouse and if I run my hand across the area that I use it in, it feels rough with small bumps throughout. However, there are other areas that are unaffected. The only thing I did in that area was use a computer mouse, so it is a little odd. I am also a habitual coaster-user, yet I have noticed one ring from a cup that I must have placed down very briefly. This isnt very noticeable and you'd have to run your hand across the desktop or look at it from an angle to notice. I use a wireless laser mouse and it tracks perfectly on the surface (well any surface) so I couldn't knock it to 3 stars because of that. The second problem you will run into is that the edges of the opening for your desk-chair get worn pretty quickly. This results in an unsightly exposed area where you rub up against it often.

I am not a carpenter or wood-expert but I do respect wood and use coasters, pledge, etc so I knocked it to 4 stars because of the wear issues I mentioned. I do not know if you can treat it someway, but if you can definitely hit the corners that you will be rubbing against a lot as well as the entire top area.

I have owned this desk for about 7 months. If I wanted it to last a couple of years I feel that I would have to pain the corners black that are worn down and exposed.

I would purchase this product again if I had the chance, probably with the consideration of treating it with some type of protectant. It is definitely a classy looking desk and has great styling, coloring, and layout-features that make it a great buy.

Great desk
By N. Sanchez
let me start off with that this desk is a very good desk. The desk is sturdy, has a good build quality, and the design is very nice. For the price I don't think you'll find a desk just as a nice. I've been to the home depot and the desk compares to the ones that were for $200+.

The desk came in perfect condition from fedex with two day shipping. There was not one chip

I finished building the desk in 3 hours without problems; no parts were missing.

I recommend the desk if you plan to use an imac, or mac mini since there is no were you can put a desktop in unless you put that on the side.

Overall this desk is a nice desk with a modern look. I highly recommend the desk.

It's a normal desk and is fine for the money you spend.
By MrMax
I like the look of this desk, and it's not that hard to assemble. However, screws were missing from the assembly packaging and it was too painful and unclear how to request another package of screws from Amazon. It's all very automated and if you get this package without the proper screws, it will be very difficult to talk to a person that can help. I ended up going to Grainger to find replacement / equivalent furniture wood screws. If you think the price is low, it is, but there is a risk that you will get what you pay: a cheap particle board desk with parts missing :(
