Product Reviews for:

I bought this desk for a few reasons. I wanted something fairly simple for my bedroom that wouldn't take up too much space. I was moving my computer into my room, and needed something to put it on. But I wanted it to look good and not be bulky. I read the reviews after I saw this one and liked the look. I couldn't be happier. First off...it is bigger than I thought, but in a good way. It fits my monitor, keyboard, printer, speakers, router, a lamp and telephone with ease. And there is still room for my coffee, and paperwork. I can use it for my computerwork and paperwork without a problem. There are 2 small drawers in the front for everything I need at the desk. Before I had an old computer desk that was bulky and had no drawers and things were everywhere, so I am content with this. It is taller than I had thought which is nice because the computer chair fits in nicely. I love the red. It is a nice old fashioned red. Not a bright kid color. It is sturdy. It doesn't rock at all. It is constructed nicely and the drawers flow with ease. As for putting it together..that was the best part! I hate having to put things together because they never line up and always seem flimsy. All I had to do was put the legs on...and they provided the tool to do it! Overall this desk is great. For a student it would be great with lots of room for papers and/or computer. If you're not putting a computer on it...it would be great for kids projects with so much room. For an adult bedroom, just perfect for bills, and computer and whatnot. As for shipping....QUICK! And I could track it all the way. Cost...shipping cost was perfect! Price of desk was very reasonable. Especially since it is so well made. It is a very nice, very sturdy desk that could go in any room and be used for anything becasue it IS so simple. I've got my family shopping at overstock now!

Too bad, this desk looked like it was just right until we opened the box- It was Maroon! We returned it, and asked for free shipping to return since the error was not not ours. Maybe next time...

I expected the darker red based on the reviews so I was pleased with the color. It's a very sturdy, well built desk. Great color and perfect for the space. I was really surprised by how nice it is for the price. Great quality and very easy to put together. One tip though, a ratchet set will make life so much easier when putting it together. It's really easy but the screws are LONG. It would take forever doing it by hand with the little tool provided. Shipped fast and arrived in excellent condition. SUPER HAPPY with this purchase.

The size is perfect for my needs, loved the color and design.

You do get what you pay for. While this desk looks exactly like its more expensive counterpart, it does not hold up. Delivery was great, and assembly was super easy. However after 3 months of use it has shown major evidence of wear. The laquer chips easily and all of the seams have basically turned white. If you plan to stick it in a corner and use it for decoration...great. Otherwise (i.e. you want to actually use it as a desk) upgrade your purchase for something that will stand the test of time.

The desk is not bright red - more a woody burnt red. But looks great all the same!

As with everything I have purchased from Overstock, I am pleased and impressed with the quality for the price and the ease of putting the item together. The desk is a perfect piece in my combined office guest room. The red is more of an aged brick red than the red in the photo; but that was just the color I was looking for!

This desk is fantastic. I bought it as a student desk for my son and when it arrived, all I had to do was attach the legs...couldn't be easier! The only difference in the desk from the website was the color. It isn't a true red, but closer to a maroon. Still, it is beautiful and my son loves it!

As noted already, the color of this item is deceptive. It's much more of a maroon color than a "red." I wouldn't even consider it to be a "brick red." It's paler than it appears to. In certain light, it looks purple or even pink. That is bad enough, but the finish is terrible. I've had it for just 2 weeks. I telecommute for work about 3 days a week. I sit at a laptop and occasionally jot notes. There are already 10-12 chips in the finish. The color/veneer is so thin that it's chipping constantly. I can't think of anything I've done to cause 1-2 chips, let alone 10-12. It's really terrible. The overall construction of the desk is fine. It was easy to assemble and seems very sturdy. That makes the poor quality of the finish all the more disappointing. I'd like to recommend it because the size is great and there's enough drawer space for office supplies. But, the finish looks awful already. My advice is to avoid it.

I love the desk. I have been looking for a red/maroon parson's desk for a while, but couldn't find one I liked. I have it in my living/family room and it's perfect for my laptop as well as paying bills, etc. I couldn't be more satisfied!!

What a pleasure this desk is!! I have put together bookcases, chairs and nightstands, so expected this to have many pieces and complicated dirtections, but it arrived totally built except for the legs to be attached! It was so easy to put the legs on and the piece is high quality construction. So glad I bought it!

I am disappointed in the product because when I received it, the drawer was broken and two corners of the table were chipped. It looked like someone had previously returned it before me in damaged condition and Overstock did not check the condition of the product before selling it to me. I decided to keep the table, however, because I did not want to hassle with the return process and it was good enough for now, since I was in need of a table for my computer. The price was decent enough where I will just eat the cost and purchase a different table in the near future. One more thing to note... This table is a very deep brick red, not a bright red as shown in the picture. Overall, I rate this product one out of five.

Beware, this desk is not red as shown in the picture. It's more of a maroonish/brownish color. It also has a matte finish...not glossy at all. I am returning this desk since it does not match the rest of my red furniture.

This is the perfect desk for a student. I am a first year law student and need lots of space to spread out my massive textbooks and computer. This desk has the perfect amount of work space and fits perfectly into my smallish bedroom. The color is great too. The deep red keeps it from looking like a child's desk as in its description.

This was a real bargain, and dead easy to put together. I saw only one drawer in the picture, but there were two. Great value for the price.

LOVE THIS DESK - at first I wanted the green student desk - but when the green desk was unavailable - I went with the red desk and I am pleasantly pleased that the red was available over the green. The desk is easy to assemble, and sturdy - the desk is actually a bordeaux color red and not crayon red which I appreciate and the finish is one of a wood-like rustic surface which is most complimentary for my decor. I think its an ideal article to have - that can add character to any room.
