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.
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 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.
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.
This desk looks beautiful, and is just what my wife was looking for. The legs are solid oak, and the veneer on the MDF top and lower shelves looks beautiful and is finished well There is one trick I learned that makes assembly easier. When screwing in the metal pins that the round cams lock into, turn the pins into their panels only until the smooth "shoulder" of the pin above the threads is flush with the panel, not until they feel tight. This will leave the pin at the correct hight for the cams to lock tightly. If you thread the pins in too far, you risk breaking the cams. Go ahead, guess how I know this. By the way, Lowe's sells replacement cams and pins. As others have noted, the instructions are inadequate, but the desk, once assembled, is a fine value for the price.
I would recommend this product based on the Quality and Price!
The package itself is very heavy. We live in an apartment complex with a package center, so we had to move the 57 lb. box up and down many flights of stairs before we got it inside. On the bright side, we got a 60lb shipment shipped for free. The desk is difficult to put together, but I did it alone. I got help flipping it the two times flipping is required, but otherwise, I was able to do it by myself. Construction and installation took about two hours. It is sturdy, but it's easy to miss the placement of a few fasteners, which can make it wobbly. The quality and color are as they appear. I don't think we'll be able to move it more than once or twice. We use the bottom rails as storage for the PC tower, and haven't had any problems with bending or wobbling. A good purchase for our apartment, especially having just moved in.
This corner desk is well made and attractive and has held up very well. It takes a lot of wear and tear as the computer table for our children, but it still looks as good as the day we put it together. A great purchase.
I needed a corner desk for an office with little room and bought this desk for the fit more than for the style. I was absolutely delighted to find that the style is elegant and expensive looking but at such a low price compared with other desks in the same price range. It is easy to assemble, my teenagers did it in less than an hour and it looks and feels great. I love the color of the wood, which is a rich red oak color. The desk arrived within days of my order. I am a very happy customer and would gladly use this company again.
