Bill Payer Desk

I was VERY disappointed in this desk. I have two handles I cannot put on because the screws are not long enough...the wood cracked on the magazine rack for the side and I had to have someone repair it for me for use. File tabs cannot be put on because they hit the top. also had to move screws down on the file guide so the drawer would fit in

This desk provided an ideal way to organize mail and bills while taking up minimum floor space. It was fairly easy to assemble and the completed unit is sturdy and functional. The glides for the hanging hanging folders in the two file drawers are set high in the drawer so folder tabs do extend above the top of the drawers but there is ample space for the folders to hang properly without tabs applied. The top drawer is convenient to hold needed items but there is no drawer stop so it can be pulled out of the cabinet by mistake. The metal glides for the two file drawers work well. The fold up top is sturdy and well constructed and provides ample and convenient space to work on paperwork then fold away when not needed.

I absolutely love this desk. I had been looking for a roll-top or secretary style desk for some time, but they were all so expensive. I didn't even know that a 'bill payer desk' existed until I found it on Overstock.com. I love it. It isn't too big as to take up a lot of room, but is big enough for me to spread out while I am writing my bills. Thank you so much Overstock. You always seem to have just what I am looking for.

This really is an ideal concept for a small space and could be useful. However; assembly was time consuming . We also would recommend that there be two of you to help try to line things up correctly. Unfortunately our piece was not square; anyway, leaving gaps on either side. Also the top drawer was not the same color as the bottom two are. And the leg which holds the desk top was poorly finished. The file drawer does not leave enough room at the top for placing a file "tag/label" on top. The instructions don't warn you to glue the dowels. It is only mentioned on the parts list sheet. Over all, we do not believe it to be worth the price.
