Like the contemp look with round sturdy legs that are attached with 8 large screws on each leg. The power outlet on the table top is a plus with the cord running down the inside of the leg. Good design

Easy to assemble. Incredibly solid and stable. The legs are attached by 9 bolts each which make the desk wobble free. Most solid desk or table I’ve ever owned. The built-in electric plugs (2 for 110 2 for devices) are very handy. I have a desk lamp and a computer plugged in.

Great table extremely sturdy simple to put together perfect for what I needed. The only issue is the color of the table top. The product description says "Espresso" - the table is brown in every way!

Well built and easily assembled this table with its power and USB port was a welcome addition to my 6' x 8' dormer office.

Assembly is fairly straightforward but there was a big gouge in the top with no visible clue in the packaging suggesting that it could have occurred in transit so that means it got by quality control. Also would be better if there were two SKUs to choose from one with the built in outlet on the left and an alternative if (for reasons of planned location) where the built in outlet is on the right. Wouldn’t change the tooling that much…..

Listed as a writing desk but i am using it as a computer desk. Has a nice amount of desk space and has a power strip on the top that makes it convenient as a temporary workstation. Be aware the table top is close to 30" off the floor. If you don't have an adjustable chair to use with it you might find it a little high. It also has no shelves(obviously if you can see the picture) so some people might not find it as useful to use as a home office desk. Works for me though. Plenty of room for an external monitor keyboard and my laptop (while slowly accumulating other items as i work from home).

First off it arrived SO quickly and given the apparent desk shortage that seems to plague most other stores that was a huge win. Then in terms of size the desk is perfect to hold 2 monitors with plenty of room for additional books and decor. And they top it all off with the additional outlets included in the table which I didn't even know I needed. If you can't already tell I love this desk 10 out of 10 would buy again.
