SIMPLIHOME Warm Shaker Desk - 48 Inch Wide Solid Wood Writing Desk in Tobacco Brown, Transitional Home Office Computer Table for Workspace or Study with Flip-Down Keyboard Tray and 2 Drawers

It fits my little office setup at home. It’s perfect for my space, it’s real wood and the assembly wasn’t too bad. It came with a little crack which I didn’t notice days later, but the seller gave me a discount instead of returning it. You can barely notice it. It fits two 24 inch monitors easily. You do need a desk pad to protect the surface because it scratches easily especially when writing over the surface. Other than that, I have no complaints!

Wife and I put it together in about 25 minutes with a electric screwdriver. Just be careful with the screws, the heads are soft and will strip if you use too much torque, so tighten them almost all the way and finish with the included hex screwdriver. The quality seems amazing, especially considering the cost, really good value. If you need a desk for your home office, look no further!

I ordered this desk to replace a much larger one when I moved into a smaller home office space. Happy enough with the purchase, though there are a few pros and cons: Pros: 1. So far as I can tell, everything on this desk is solid wood, even the triangular braces on the underside. No cheap fiberboard anywhere on this and, as a result, it feels solid. 2. Very easy to assemble with just 8 bolts for the legs that fit perfectly and smoothly in place, along with three screws for the drawer handles. Simple, fast, and easy. 3. Directions were simple and easy to follow. 4. As mentioned above, the desk feels substantial once assembled - very solid. Cons: 1. This desk is over 31" high, which made me feel like I was a kid at the adult table, and I'm 5'11, so a pretty normal sized guy. It was so noticeable, I took the legs off and trimmed an inch and three quarters off each leg to lower the desk to a comfortable height. So check that before you buy to be sure it will be okay for you. 2. The desk came with two discolorations on the top, which look like scratches even though they are not. Reason I took off one star. Given the price, I can live with it. Overall, I'm happy with this purchase and like the way it looks in my little home office. Just know that, at this price point, you won't get perfection, and trust me on this - check the height before you buy.

A beautiful desk that looks exactly as advertised and seems sturdy enough. The assembly was the easiest I have ever seen. There are only 5 pieces, the table area with drawers, all assembled already, and the 4 feet. All it takes is 10 minutes to screw the feet to the main piece, et voilà.

Very pleased with the workmanship. Much prefer a piece of solid pine to any manufactured wood furniture. The top came already assembled and you just need to add the legs. Looks very nice. It was hard to find a narrow desk. One caution: the top is not smooth. You need to write on a pad and not directly on top of the desk. I also purchased the matching end table from Simpli Home and like the desk it came extremely well matched and took only about 30 minutes to assemble.

The table is pretty and made from solid wood, but the drawers didn't fit properly.

It took some time for me to actually select a desk for my new office. In reading reviews of potential choices I was turned away from several options based on sharings of assembly horror stories. This desk was very easy to assemble. I did it all by myself, only needing my Husband to carry the box upstairs and then help me carry the desk into the office space. This desk is sturdy, solid, well-made and quite handsome. It allow just enough space for me to be organized but not cluttered. I was strongly considering a similar style at a local furniture store, which was much more expensive. This was definitely the best choice for me.

I was pleased that there were minor flaws with the wood finish, which was the first thing we looked for based on previous reviews. As we began unpacking the pieces, we found loose screws that were not able to be anchored in their appropriate holes because they were too short. This issue was overcome, however, when attaching the corner supports. When unpacking the desktop, we discovered the middle drawer was misaligned and was wedged in the desk because one side had come off the rails. This took a great deal of effort to carefully dislodge and realign onto the rail using a hammer and screwdriver. Assembling was not as easy as some reviewers said, but the legs were eventually affixed securely. The final issue, which is the major one, is the right small drawer rails are misaligned with the drawer supports, making the drawer fall off the rails when you pull the drawer open, which then scratches the finish if you're not careful. Of course, we discovered this problem after we had assembled the entire desk, which meant disassembling the entire desk and repackaging if we tried to return it. I like the weight of the desk, the style, and that it is wood, but the right drawer is not usable. I took a chance ordering this after assessing the risk based on the reviews. I highly recommend other people read the reviews, too, before ordering this, because they all seem to be valid.
