Large Storage Workstation

We love it! It looks awesome, has tons of space for everything and everything is hidden. The drawers are fully extendable so it comes out all the way. Great feature. It took 2 of us about 3 hours to put together. The instructions are daunting. However, the end product is perfect. Only wish it had pre-drilled holes towards the top of the monitor area for the shelf. There are about 7 pre-drilled holes for the pegs but the highest hole was still too low for our monitor. In order to use the shelf, we drilled our own holes which was a bit strenuous. But it was worth it.

I am very pleased with this desk. I was a little apprehensive at first because of the size, the secretary style and because it is hard to tell the exact color online. The size is actually listed incorrectly. This desk is not 67 inches high. It is only 50 inches high which I was happy about. The style is different for me. I have never had a secretary style desk before. When the door/desk is open, it measures 42 iches from the back to where you are seated in front. Luckily we have an open area for the desk. If you have a small area it may not work for you. It took a little getting used to, and we make an effort not to lean on it ( just in case) but after a few days we love it. It makes for better posture as well. The color is beautiful. We were most apprehensive about that but It matches perfectly to our entertainment center that we were trying to match from the picture online. It's listed as dark walnut. It can even be called espresso. The assembly took my husband ( alone.... because I hate that kind of thing ) about 2 1/2 -3 hours. It was worth it. It is such a gorgeous piece of furniture and so sturdy. I looked in many stores and online for days before purchasing this item. Anything comparable to this piece cost more than double the price and shipping was ridiculous. I am extremely pleased and would recommend this piece.

I was not familiar with "rubber wood" and thought this was going to be some kind of pressed board or composite wood product. I have subsequently learned that rubber wood is a beautiful natural hardwood. I am using this as a sewing cabinet since the only things sold on the market are very expensive and yet cheap looking. This item looks great and is sturdy, roomy and well built.I have purchased and assembled furniture before and must say this was BY FAR the best assembly yet. All of the components were properly aligned and drilled; however the instructions could have been a bit more clear. I am a petite woman and was able to assemble this unit without help (with the exception of attaching the flip down door) in approximately 4 1/2 hours. I am THRILLED with another great purchase from Overstock!

I ordered this desk several months ago for my home office/sitting room., but just got around to putting it together. Like many of the previous reviews, I agree that the desk is a challenge to put together. It took my son's and I 2.5 hours to put it together. There are a were about two steps that were not clear and it is really important to check to make sure you have all the pieces facing in the right direction. Once we got past the challenges, the assembly process moved fairly quick. I agree that the drop down is large and I don't feel comfortable applying any pressure. Like one other post, I am going to look at attaching piano hinges. I was not able to use the selves as my monitor sits too high, but I really appreciate having everything stored neatly away. This is a heavy piece of furniture and an excellent value. I would have rated it five starts, except the directions are challenging and the assembly is so time consuming.
