The lack of reviews for this desk was concerning to me, but the product looked great and I have a good amount of experience assembling knockdown furniture, so I gave it a shot. Overall, I am very happy with this purchase. The desk has some minor cosmetic flaws like drawer alignment being slightly (1/8" on one) off, which are only noticeable if you are looking for them. I did not have the same issues that another reviewer had with misalignment of holes. The finished product looks as good as the picture.Assembly took about 2 hours total and was done by one guy, me. Instructions were average in difficulty / helpfulness based on what I have experienced with other knockdown furniture and overall only resulted in me having to backtrack once to redo a step.You will need to have the following tools in order to put the desk together as none are provided (Phillips screwdriver with a long neck, 4mm Hex Wrench and a rubber mallet). A cordless drill with a clutch for sinking many screws and turning lock nuts is a major effort and time saver. Also, there are 6 long screws that secure the desktop that require and extra long (3") Phillips Head bit if you are using a cordless drill. It was impossible for me to get two of the screws into the desktop by hand, but that was a minor inconvenience and easily solved with a new bit for under $3.One other recommendation if you purchase this desk. For some reason, the drawers do not come with pre-drilled holes to align the drawer tracks to when inserting screws. Aligning the tracks is easy per the instructions, but without the holes, the wood will crack when you sink the screws. I'd recommend drilling pilot holes before attaching the tracks with the screws. This additional step eliminated the wood cracking issue for me.
After reading some of the reviews and deciding that some of those people didn't have a clue, I took a "leap of faith" and ordered this desk. This was my first order from overstock and it was a good one. My husband put this desk together and he has put together several pieces of our furniture. He did had to predrill the holes on the drawers, but other than that, everything went fine. This desk is a great value for $150. The size of it alone is going to keep it in our family for a while to come.

I expected this desk to fit my office well, and it does. It is wood. But the top panel came with a big crack line at the bottom side and the drawer panel was easy to crack when I assembled it. I requested the customer service to replace the top panel but only received cancellation and return label. How could I put it back into original package for return for such a complicated packed furniture? Then I called for replacement only the top panle, but received no further attention. I am disappointed with the customer service.

This is a nice desk, especially for the price. It took about 2.5 hours to assemble, but I did it mostly alone. The directions are short, but if you use the pictures it is easy.

Great desk. Comes in two boxes. One box is heavy, have someone help you. I carried it all in by myself, but needed my husband to help me assemble, because of the weight. There are LOTS of pieces, but it goes quickly. Read the directions about the drawers very carefully.
I love the desk--description is very accurate and it provides a nice, big workspace for using a computer and then a writing area as well. I only gave it 4 stars because the magnet that holds the keyboard drawer up doesn't hold the drawer up too well. Probably going to screw the drawer front in permanently as that would suit my needs better. Other than that, great desk for the price!

I absolutely love this desk. It is the perfect color and the wood is very thick and strong. This is surely the best bang for your buck! I had help putting the desk together but was worth it.

This desk is great. Initially I was hesitant to purchase due to the many comments regarding issues with assembly. I admit the assembly was lengthy and at times a tad confusing, but the end product was certainly worth it. I looked for similiar products for quite some time and found nothing I liked as much, or that was priced as well. Very satisfied

This is a really nice desk. Very good quality, and quite solid. It was easy to put together. You'd pay a lot more for something of similar quality from a branded manufacturer.

it was difficult to put this desk together as the pre drilled holes did not line up properly. in some places the holes were too close to an edge and the material would crack. after finally getting it together it looks nice, but was not worth the hassle.
The only reason I'm not giving this desk 5 stars is that the pull out draw for the computer keyboard is great except that when I go to push it back in place the drop down part of the front of the drawn does not stay in position when you go to shut it. I think I can use some double sided velco to hold it in place, but for the price of the table don't think this should be an issue. I love the table so much will just live with it. Minor detail, but really wish the drawn would stay in place.

difficult to put together, even by a handyman. Once assembled, it was a very nice desk with a heavy, substantial feeling. The computer drawer would not stay closed, which is why I did not give it 5 stars. I couldn't install a magnet so I wound up super gluing the desk drawer front to the box, so now it is just a regular drawer. As long as the super glue holds, this will be a great desk.

I love this desk! It did take a while to put together though. The middle drawer closes with a magnet but mine will not stay shut which is frustrating. That is my only complaint.

This desk was as nice or even nicer than we expected. It went together beautifully, and the company sent extra fasteners than the quantities said on the package. It is very sturdy, and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a good quality white desk. I looked on many sites and this was by far the best price for this type of unit. The only thing we noticed was the wood on the 2 smaller drawers split a little when we screwed in the drawer slides. the middle drawer sides were made of a harder sturdier trim and we didn't have that problem. It shouldn't cause any long term issues, just a little frustrating with a brand new piece.
This desk looks lovely put together. It isn't GREAT quality but what do you expect for that price. Main bummer is the drawers don't align perfectly and the middle keyboard tray is useless and would have been better as a regular drawer. Because of the somewhat shiny paint it does get dinked pretty easily but if gently used should be ok. Be VERY careful putting it together to prevent the wood from cracking! All in all, pleased for the price I paid and it is a very good size table top which is what I wanted.
