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.
