Hand-carved Drop-front Secretary Desk

Rating

I was looking for the perfect piece of furniture to organize all the paperwork that always seemed to end up on and around the dinning room. And this was the answer. It holds everything and looks very nice also. The shipping was fast, the assembly was easy, the hardest part was getting it out of the box. It is darker than shown, but still looks great!

I just got my new desk and I'm very impressed with the quality and workmanship of the woodwork especially considering the amount of $ I paid. It is quite sturdy and will hold everything I need to pair down my home office.It is slightly darker in person that the picture, but another reveiwer noted that so I was expecting the color.My only "complaint" if you could call it that, is that the file shelving is not attached and sort of floats around in the inside of the desk.

We are very happy with our beautiful new desk. It arrived the day it was scheduled to arrive and couldn't have been packaged any more protectively. All we had to do was put the legs on! It fits perfectly in the spot we had chosen and is exactly what we were looking for.

Easy to assemble secretary. Small enough to fit anywhere. The color is darker than shown. The carving is nice, the desk fits in with any decor. It has nice pigeon hole area for letters, etc, a nice fold down writing top, and a handy file drawer. I am very pleased with this item.

I had a small space available to me and wanted to fill it with a desk where I could pay bills and park my laptop. As I shopped around on the web, and in brick-and-mortar stores, I got the feeling that I was going to have to choose between an expensive desk in the style I preferred, or a cheaper, kid's desk in a style I was most emphatically not thrilled with. When I found this desk, at this price I thought there had to be a drawback, but so far it's been exactly what I wanted. The look is good, it's the right size, and the price was the best I'd found anywhere for this type of desk. It's fantastically easy to put together, requiring only a few minutes to attach the feet. My unit did come with a significant crack at the back, but as it doesn't show and doesn't compromise the function, I didn't feel it was something that needed to be addressed. However I would advise buyers to check their units before destroying the packing. The wooden insert for bills and such is adequate to my needs, and the drawers (two small and one larger) are good and deep, if not particularly large overall. I'd offer one caution: If you tend to push off on something as you stand up, don't do it on this desk. It's likely to tip forward.
