Picked one of these up for a better temp. work from home setup. It’s not the greatest of builds, but it can be setup well, just don’t plan to use it forever.
It took me weeks to narrow down what desk I wanted to buy, and was REALLY nervous when I noticed this one had no reviews. Well heres mine:
Great looking desk, heavy and sturdy. Pretty easy to put together, except for one thing..... One of the pieces was missing 3 essential holes... I rectified the situation with the biggest drill bit I had (which wasnt big enough) and pure brute force. Thats why my rating is 4 instead of 5. It came with great assembly instructions, and even included the only screwdriver youll need.
It did take a month to come in. Also the box was really beat up (thankfully only 2 minor blemishes in the desktop), and super heavy, so think about sending it to an locker so your local delivery guy doesnt have to risk breaking the desk, or his back, in order to drag it to your front door.
Overall the positives outweigh the missing holes. It looks great, it fits my monitors with room to grow, it raises the monitors for neck comfort, and has plenty of open storage for displaying figurines.
This is a fantastic desk for the price with lots of storage. There is ample room for my 27 monitor and speakers on either side. The spaces under the monitor stand fit 15 laptops just fine and could definitely hold 16 laptops. The whole thing is pretty sturdy once put together. Im seriously considering buying more things by this brand like a coffee table.
The only real downside is the keyboard drawer. Its not very wide. If you have a smaller keyboard (one without a numpad) you will likely have a bit of room for a mouse next to it. Ive got a full size keyboard and use a trackball and the kb and trackball just barely fit side by side in the space provided.
Also - there were some holes for the screws that werent present. I had to triple check that I didnt have some piece backwards and then drill holes where they were supposed to be for the keyboard drawer. Assembling that metal parts was fast and easy. The wooden parts, not so much because of the missing holes for the keyboard drawer and other parts were a bit hard to screw in.
The instructions are clear and parts are well labeled. However, the box arrived held open by one piece of tape and the box was half open. The metal parts were all scuffed up and dusty as if they had sat exposed on a shelf for a long time before being packaged.
I started assembling the desk and couldn’t start the second step. There was a duplicate piece (piece 4) and no piece 3. Piece 3 has a screw hole in it for a lower horizontal support bar. Piece 4 does not have the necessary screw hole.
There is no address or phone number for customer service, just an email. I sent one with photos attached and asked for the missing piece. I will update with the results. Currently, two stars because the desk looks good and I had high hopes for it but the package was a mess and parts were missing/dirty.
UPDATE
Customer service responded within two hours. They sent a complete desk, not just the missing part. Everything inside was in much better shape. The desk was easy to put together and looks good once set up. Overall good experience.
Great desk, it looks nice and is sturdy. My only gripe would be having to make work arounds for the right metal peice that holds the wood on top. Its missing a hole necessary for completing the desk but can be worked around if youre willing to take that risk.
This is a really nice desk. I was a little worried because of the reviews that I had seen, but mine wasn’t too bad. The only thing I didn’t like was how dirty it was when it came in. Had to clean everything before putting it together. There are some small dents and damages, but they’re not extremely noticeable. Other than that, I absolutely love it! It’s really cute and has lots of space.
The Good.
- Attractive Desk
- Good Design / Monitor Shelf
- Feels Solid once assembled
- Reasonable Cost
The Bad
- Shipped with 3 of the same base piece and 1 of the other instead of 2 and 2. This means I was forced to drill my own holes to install the horizontal support bars. It was a fairly easy fix for me but an oversight and speaks to the quality control at the manufacturer.
Overall I am happy with the final product. Took about 90 minutes to assemble due to the hole drilling but can likely be done in less time if everything ships correctly. Instructions we OK. Just pay close attention like all of these home assembly units. Dont rush.

The instructions help but are worthless.
The instructions are somewhat helpful but garbage had to take apart several times To put together correctly
Kinda cheap, but very usable.

Great looking desk, one issue though.

Nice Desk with Minor Problems

Great desk for the price.
Desk is perfect for desktop computer and printer. Shelf underneath can hold books and lots of room to spare on top.
