This desk is not only sleek and handsome with outstanding design, it is an excellent addition to the room. In addition, it is practical and at the perfect height for writing and reading. I would recommend this to anyone who has good taste and modest resources.

Though we didn't have as much trouble with the instructions as everyone else, I can definitely see the issues...pictures and no words. And it definitely takes at least 2 hours to put together, not the 1 hour as stated in the instructions but it is worth it! The price is great for what looks like an expensive piece when it is all put together. I've been eyeing it for months and finally bought it, wondering why I waited so long! I have to agree with everyone else, you won't regret your purchase!

This desk looks amazing for the price! The only hard thing about the assembly was installing the tracks on the drawers. Besides that just take your time and put it together slow and there should be no problems!

Assembly not as bad as I expected from the previous reviews. Just took some time, instruction not much help. Overstock replaced the damaged package very fast.Looks better than picture, streamline not at all bulky. Fits beautifully in my small condo. Word of caution; very limited storage space, not a work-horse desk.

This desk is sturdy and beautiful once put together, but putting it together was a nightmare! It took my friend and I all afternoon to do it. This was mostly because of the instructions. As described in a previous review, they only include pictures and they are not clear. Now that I've blocked that horrible experience of putting the desk together from my mind, I am enjoying the desk very much. Just be warned that if you purchase this desk, you will need to block out an afternoon and store up some patience to do it!

The instructions were so poorly presented, and I use that word because there was no text included, only very poorly executed pictures, it took two of us almost 3 hours to assembly this. I'm not the type that minds assembly if I've gotten what I consider a bargain; however this was a very disappointing experience.Sorry, while it's a pretty substantial desk from a distance, I'm not happy with this quality of this purchase. I wish we had shipped it back before spending all that time trying to make heads or tails out of the cryptic picture they called "instructions."

The desk itself looks fantastic in my home office. It fits exactly where I needed it and offers a good amount of desktop workspace. But yes, putting the desk together was an ordeal. The directions called for one person, one hour and a screwdriver. It took both me and my husband three hours with multiple tools, and I'm usually pretty good at assembling furniture. The directions were not clear and the steps did not seem accurate. We were also missing several screws that were needed to fix the desktop to the base. In the end though it looks good and hasn't fallen apart yet (because of the missing screws). I'd recommend it for the looks alone.

Ok, so I purchased this desk 5 months ago in preparation for my new place and had forgotten how people mentioned that the instructions were shotty. Here's the thing, the directions aren't all that great, but don't let that deter you from purchasing this piece. It's well crafted and made out of solid material, people will swear that you paid a fortune for it.. Another great buy from Overstock.com.!

This desk was exactly what I was looking for. I love the look and the price. Great value for your money.

I purchased this desk and am very happy for the price and style. The desk arrived timely in 3 very large, heavy boxes, with all boxes being well packed/secure. If you purchase this desk be sure to read all the comments and pay strict attention to the drawers. The CENTER drawer is NOT the same size as the two end drawers therefore you could spend extra unnecessary time with the assembly. Overall the assembly was swift, approx 1 hour and easy. As others have commented the directions and labeling are poor but, with good thought and plan, you shouldn't have much difficulity. Be aware - the drawers don't side well but, for my purpose, this doesn't matter much. If you are a tall person, the center beam may be a problem if you sit close to the desk. Overall, for the price and style, I highly recommend this sheak, functional desk.

Other reviewers are not joking, it takes 2+ hours to assemble Looks nice, good quality. A bit dark - plan to lighten up with lighter color accents

This desk was exactly what I was looking for and my husband does agree that it wasn't easy to put it together. I couldn't be more please with the quality. Thank you Overstock!

This desk looks nice when finished. The wood quality is better (and heavier, be ready) than one would expect from an assemble it yourself piece of furniture. The assembly was difficult and while it was nice that there was some tools included, you really need a good solid, comfortable Phillips Screwdriver, and a torque/Allen wrench isn't a bad idea. Also, there are some fittings you are meant to tighten at the end of the assembly that no one without long skinny arms could reach. So with some difficult assembly, I would still recommend this product.

Once it is put together it is beautiful! But getting it to that point is a challenge. There were not any holes drilled for the drawers (Which are different sizes)...... so have a drill handy! Everyone was right - the assembly directions were so poorly "written" make you wonder why they even bothered!

Very pleased with this desk. Assembly was not too bad considering done with pictures only, no written instructions. At times was a little confusing. My biggest problem was with the 3 drawers. It's the last thing installed and getting the tracks in straight and in the proper place was not great. Then had problems opening and closing the draws because I hadn't tightened the screws enough. Considering the few problems with the assembly, I love the desk

As stated by the previous consumers, the directions are horrible and they did not drill the holes for the drawers. Overall, the desk is beautiful and completes a room in my home. Advice to future buyers, Don't use the directions; follow your own intuition.

This is a good looking desk. It is solid and sturdy. As previous reviews listed the directions are not too clear but once you figure it out you will be very happy. It took me about 2 hours to completely assemble and I am usually pretty mechanically inclined. I would not suggets anyone getting this desk if the get frustrated fast; the directions may test your patience. You will need help putting the pieces together since some of the pieces are heavy and akward for one person to handle. I am very happy with this desk its contemporary looks blend well with just about any decor. I would have given it 5 if it had not been for the directions

Arrived in 2 separate boxes. Unfortunately, there was damage to the top and bottom end pieces--probably occured during shipment. Overstock sent out replacements upon notification and the desk looks great once assembled. Beware that it is a time consuming process and the directions are very poor and actually wrong. It is a heavy, large piece but for the price plus the free shipping you cannot beat this value!!!!

Desk arrived in good condition - 2 very large boxes and 1 smaller one. Assembly instructions were ok, diagrams did not completely reflect actual product, but still OK. Aside from the assembly, the desk is an excellent product. Much larger desk than expected and looks chic and modern. I would definitely recommend this desk if you are looking for something that looks high-end, modern with lots of space for a computer or lap top and actual writing room as well. Great deal!

Overall I love this desk. Very nice looking, very contemporary and streamlined. The instructions were in picture format which I find to be very deceiving at some points in the assembly process. I prefer worded instructions. The fact that there were no screw holes for the drawer slides on the drawers make it a little difficult to assemble and since the screws do not screw in flush on the bottom of the drawers, it does make them stick a little. Overall I do love the this desk.
