Meets expectations
Let me start off with some background. My wife adopted a little girl which meant we were losing the full use of second bedroom of our two bedroom apartment. This was traditionally our shared office space/junk room. With the repurposing of that room, we got rid of our desks and had to integrate our workspace into the living room. My wife got a nice ikea desk but I decided to go deskless and just use a lap tray for my laptop. This didn’t last long. I needed a place for stationary and to serve as my at-home base of operations.The only space not dedicated to baby stuff was a small section beside our couch where our end tables had been relegated. I was glad to see this desk fit that space perfectly.Pros: Cheap. This desk was not only cheaper than the alternatives at target and wal-mart, but the rounded shelves gave it a nicer look. Not to mention, it was two fewer sharp corners in an increasingly baby proofed home.Easy assembly. If you’ve put together anything from ikea, this should pose no challenge.Cons: Pieces aren’t very well labeled, but there are so few you shouldn’t really need the labels. I like the fact that I don’t have big ugly letter stickers on each piece. The piece letter is stenciled onto the unfinished edge but it isn’t very clear. You’re better off just comparing the pieces to the instructions. Also, the finish was worn off of the edge of my shelves when they arrived. I would complain, but the desk was super cheap and I just touched up the worn spots with a sharpie, end of crisis.Regarding other complaints:1. Screw holes not fully drilled – right, because it is particle board. Even without the pre-drilled holes screws work into the “wood” easily, if the holes were drilled too deeply, the screws wouldn’t take. I found the whole screw situation pretty well done. The whole unit comes together using a series of dowels, cam locking bolts and a few screws.2. Desk is wobbly on carpet – I misunderstood this at first. When I read that people found the desk wobbly I thought they were referring to the construction of the desk itself. After assembly, I noted how solid it felt. When I put it on the carpet, however, I realized what people meant. On the carpet, it sometimes appears as though the whole thing might tip over. However, this is because it is so narrow relative to its height. Mine stabilized once I put things onto it and had it pushed up against the side of the couch. If you have it against a wall, just anchor it. If you are using it on a hard surface, it won’t even need that.3. Space – the dimensions are clearly listed. The desktop comfortably fits a 19″ laptop, mouse, a desk lamp and space to charge up my phone. If you are unsure, measure your stuff and see if it will fit before ordering.I never expected to get a super expensive desk on the cheap. I wanted something that fit into a small space within some very specific dimensions (which this did). If it wobbled, I stabilized it. If something didn’t fit, I made it fit. If there was a scuff, I touched it up. For $50 I expected exactly what was described, not a turnkey solution in a box.The desk isn’t perfect. But I think it is still worth the $50 depending upon your needs.

Great desk for kids, people with not much space, small vanity or for nothing heavy
My son is almost 8 and my other son is 17 and this is perfect for them both to do remote, at home schooling. I wish Iâd bought it back in August. It literally took me less than 30 minutes to put together and all I needed was a Phillips screw driver. My husband was shocked to see I didnât need his helpðDO NOT use a POWER SCREW DRIVER on this, it WILL split the wood, as It is only particle wood. I love how convenient it is to assemble and you can choose the left or right side that you want the rounded side with shelves to be on. Just be sure you wait to put the little piece at the bottom, the strip by the feet area. Wait until last, or after you decide which side the rounded side will be on as you want to be sure to have the color facing the correct way. Now, about that little piece, I do not like that it only screws on one side and not both. Thatâs a little weird. I do not know if mine was just missing the pre drilled holes in the wood, or if I just received 2 extra screws. Not sure, but it only screws on one side, and this is regardless of what side it is placed on. Either way, it still holds up nicely. Just be sure not to put your feet up on that rail.One other thing I didnât realize is, both of the drawers are made out of cloth (theyâre like the cube storage shelves) and there is no back to the shelf (I assume itâs because again, you can choose to put the rounded side on left or right) .Oh and FYI: IF YOU BUY THIS, BE SURE TO OPEN IT OUTSIDE AT THE TRASH! You will need to take piece by piece out the box and wipe it down over the trash can to avoid having foam balls all over your flooring. It will get EVERYWHERE!All in all, THIS IS FOR YOU…………If youâre looking for a desk for your kidâs to do home schooling, or a simple vanity to hold your makeup etc, if you donât have a whole lot of space for a desk, but need one anyways, and if youâre using it for laptop vs computer or to use it for anything not very heavy, then this IS the right desk for you.This desk MAY NOT BE FOR YOU IF…………..If you are an adult or teenager looking for a sturdy desk to hold heavy things, this desk is definitely NOT for you. The legroom would be a bit tight on anyone taller than maybe 5â8 or so. If youâre wanting to put a full blown computer on it, not sure Iâd even recommend that either as it is a bit wobbly, however, if that is all thatâs going to be on it then it might be ok.I would have given 5* if it didnât wobble a little.
