This desk has perfect mission styling and was super easy to assemble. Although it is not 100% solid wood, (has some veneers) it seems very well manufactured. The only thing not mentioned in the product description is that there is an opening for mouse and monitor wires in the middle of the desk top. Because of this, if you use the hole instead of hanging the wires off the back, and have a moitor that is not an LCD, it causes you to place the monitor smack in the middle of the desk top, about 8" from the edge of the desk. Even with a LCD, there is only about 12" working space from the front edge of the desk. It leaves a lot of wasted space behind the monitor. Overall though, it's a very high quality desk for the price.
Love the way this looks. Make sure to assemble in the room that you want this in, it did not fit through our door. Had to disassemble some of it, to get it into the room.
I read the other reviews before ordering this, thinking I could handle any assembly issues that were previously mentioned. To my surprise, everything worked out perfectly, with no issues at all. I could see where someone might think some of the holes did not line up, but that is because you have to flex the frame a little to get it in line and square, nothing more than that. This is a beautiful piece of furniture and easily worth twice the price. In fact, I recently saw it in a catalog for $399. I am thinking of ordering another because the first one ended up in my living room, not my guest room where I had planned it to go.
The mission style Oak corner desk is attractive but not functional. Two main problems are: first, the keyboard tray does not pull out far enough to be able to access all keys on even a standard size no-frills keyboard - numbers and function keys are not accessable - at all - without removing the keyboard from the keyboard tray. And, an ergonomically designed key board will not fit on the top surface along with a "now" typical 18" - 20" flat monitor --- defintely does not work to have a keyboard and laptom on the top surface. Second, there is no space under the computer for a tower, or a printer and your feet - one of the three but not two. I would not have purchased this item had I seen it in person!
I bought this desk almost three years ago. I use it every day, sometimes for many hours a day. It has held up beautifully and is a perfect fit for my small home office. It was relatively easy to assemble and has stayed tight and sturdy with no adjustments. The bottom shelves hold my standard CPU, a router and a surge protector with no problem. As with any wood finish, take care.

The Bad: I would have rated this desk higher except for the major hassle required to assemble it. I would only recommend theis kit to people that have assembled a Sauder kit or similar product. It took me 3 hours to assemble the desk. The Good: It does look great when finally assembled. All nuts and bolts were present in the parts bag. It is an oak veneer top with real oak leg and slat assemblies on the sides. I would think it may last 10 years or longer with normal use and wear. It is a good value from Overstock if you overlook the long assembly time & labor involved. I wold think if you bought this corner desk assembled from a local furniture chain you would probably pay $400 for a similar product so you decide is it worth it? Maybe.
This desk is everything we had wanted in a corner computer desk. It's stylish, functional and the price was reasonable. Great product at a great value!
I bought this desk for my husband for Christmas. He loved it and so do I. The instructions could have been written a little bit better, but as far as the desk , after I figured out the instructions it was easy to put together. I did it by myself. It looks great!! I would recommend this to anyone. It's nice to have if space is limited.
Desk is very nice quality. Sturdy and looks rich. We had a slight problem in that the desk was damaged in transit by the shipper but customer service was very helpful and a new item was sent to us within a week of the first delivery.

A good quality desk for the price. Assembly was a bit of a challenge and some of the screws needed to be tightened twice. Ones up it looks good and is very functional. I'd buy it again.

what a deal! this desk was on JCPenney's site for twice the cost. you would still have to assemble either way. we are pleased with the bargain. just add wood glue to the dowels during assembly for longer lasting results. this desk was perfect for us because we did not have a lot of space to work with- yet the desk is large enough for the desktop PC and writing materials. the hidden keyboard drawer keeps everything neat.

really like the desk. Fits right into the corner and takes up less room. The two shelves and pull out drawer are handy. the directiions really sucked. Had a hard time putting it together for the pictures and directions didn't match.

This desk was misrepresented because neither the picture nor the description mentioned a big hole on the desk top. Evidently it is for wires, but it is unsightly and ill placed. I wouldn't have ordered this desk if I had known. Overall, I am very disappointed.

I love the idea of a corner desk because it gives me much more space in my small apartment while still providing an ample surface to work on. Love the shelf on the bottom and the mission-style. The instruction manual was pretty terrible. I didn't have too much trouble putting it together, but I took my sweet time puzzling over the manual because it is sometimes very hard to tell which end fits with which. Nice wood and color. My only problem is my desk chair has scraped up against one of the legs a couple of times, which has put some scrapes on the legs
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? a little darker but good
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. fairly sturdy, especially the desk top. the desk legs can get scraped up easily though
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? pretty accurate
I don't know why some people complained about the directions and the difficulty of putting this together. Honestly, I did it in about an hour, by myself, with two young children climbing all over the place. Each piece was clearly labeled and the directions described and pictured how each piece fit together. I did have a small bit of difficulty figuring out how to make the screw lock-thingys secure, but it was minor. Once assembled, the desk is beautiful and very well made. My husband thought that I paid much more for it than I did. I'm using it for my laptop and the keyboard drawer is perfect for storing a notebook and a few pens. I really love this desk and can't stop admiring it. I'm so glad I decided to go for it!
