Knox Espresso Desk

Rating

Purchased this desk a few weeks ago, and Love it. I needed something for a small space but with storage for makeup and odds and ends. I was able to assemble this desk in about an hour; the ease of putting it together was great. The workmanship is very wood, made form solid wood mostly which is great for the price. Like the other reviewers the color form the picture is off, but i actually wanted a darker piece of furniture so was completely satisfied with the color. I would definitely recommend this desk for a small space needing functionality.

I read the reviews before I purchased so I was aware of the dark color, it really is espresso. This is the color I wanted but if I had been expecting the picture color I would have been very disappointed. Very easy to assemble all parts were well marked in packages. Not a high quality piece of furniture but certainly is worth the small price. It arrived in great shape.

Read and understand the dimensions carefully before you buy. Otherwise it's like walking into a Hyundai dealer, driving off with an Accent and wondering why it's not roomy like a Cadillac. There won't be room for much of anything but your laptop. This is a small computer desk only, NOT a computer SLASH writing desk. That being said, it's a well-made, space-efficient computer desk. You will need a stubby screwdriver for the top/hutch, so be prepared, and have one handy. The pieces went together the way they were supposed to, everything fit, there was TONS of extra hardware, so no risk of running out. Overall, I'm very happy w/this desk. The only thing, and it's the reason I gave it 4 and not 5 in the "appearance" category, is that it's not the medium reddish brown the picture shows. Its at least a full shade darker, and more brown-brown than red-brown in color. So, the color is true to the product name--"espresso"--and not to the picture. I prefer the darker, espresso color to the color in the photo, but some people may not. The simple, almost Shaker lines make this very versatile. It will fit in w/modern decor just as easily as it will w/country decor. It ain't big, but this is a sturdy, solid, attractive, well-manufactured piece of furniture.

Good deal for the price. Wood much darker than photograph. Assembly not too difficult. Desk is great for small spaces.

The desk arrived sooner than expected and was easy to put together. One big problem was that one of the legs did not fit using the pre-drilled holes and I had to drill new ones in order to complete the desk. It might be a little crooked but it serves its purpose and the price was very good.
