Large and very easy to assemble!! Took about 35 minutes.

I bought 2 and put them together opposite for a huge “command” center. They are sturdy and they look good. Worth the money. Directions aren’t as hard as everyone says. Just do what the instructions say. Don’t go by color of the screw but the number on the bag (which can be confusing). I watched others on YouTube assemble it first. Took about a half hour.

Overall, I am pleased with this purchase. The desk faux wood looks better in person than in the online pictures. The desk unit came well packed, with plenty of styrofoam and cardboard packing. Even though the box had some minor tears, there was no damage to the product because it was well packed and protected in the carton.
The desk comes with well marked parts (surfaces, legs, and support brackets) and clearly marked hardware packets. It appears the manufacturer includes extra screws needed for assembly. The product comes with two tools for assembly – an Allen wrench and a small screwdriver. I was able to unpack and assemble the desk in less than two hours. I think it might take me longer to get rid of all the packing materials.
On a side note, I didn’t bother with the drawer. It requires that you bend then attach the drawer supports and the drawer itself is made of fabric. The instructions read that it only holds 3.3lbs. What I would rather have is a keyboard tray, but I can buy and install one separately.
This desk does what it is designed to do. Not the fanciest, but it seems sturdy and will meet my needs for now.

I’ve had this desk since August 2021 and it has held up really well. And across 2 moves. So I recommend it. It’s very sturdy and reliable. Still no damage to it. 👍🏼

Love this desk. It fits perfectly in the corner. Works great in small spaces. The drawer doesn’t hold much weight and broke within a month but other than that it’s been incredibly sturdy. Easy to put together and take apart for moving around. Great value for the money

Just moved and with a new place I needed a new desk. For the space I’m working with, the dimensions fit perfectly, and having put it together, I’m quite happy with the end product!
The assembly process was a little daunting at first with how many pieces and hardware it came with, but each part is labeled (as most build at home furniture is) as were the baggies of hardware.
I’m a pretty handy guy and it took me maybe an hour to put together, though my attention was divided so it’s not like I was being quick about it. I imagine from box to built most people could do it in fifteen minutes, especially if this isn’t their first time using a tool.
The hardware is mostly Alan key (or hex wrench) like Ikea furniture, and I was pleasantly surprised there were threaded metal inserts in the wood pieces. A lot of times I’ll worry about stripping the wood on cheap particle or MDF board furniture, or weakening the structure by having to put a screw in. With those threads in place, that’s one less thing at have to worry about, and it makes the finished product very sturdy.
I was also pleasantly surprised that the drawer and shelf can go on either side, with pilot holes drilled for the drawer on both, and the shelf has small self tapping screws that will go anywhere you put them.
If I had to make one complaint about this, it’s it’s the pieces aren’t perfectly mated in size. I did have to partially force the supports so that all the bolts and screws would fit into place, though that was hardly a problem, just unexpected. I think that it may add more sturdiness to the finished product, as well, since once I stopped forcing it, the parts flexed back and more or less locked the hardware in place.
All in all, building this was a pleasant experience, league’s ahead of other box to build furniture I’ve dealt with over the years.
If you have a screw gun or electric screwdriver and hex bits, this process will go even faster and easier, though you’ll need to be careful to not strip the screws.

I like the design however, two items did not match what I was looking for:
1. The width of the desk is too short for me, not enough room for my laptop and the tri-monitor mount
2. I expected two (2) full-length desks on both sides of the curve, not the standard. I made do with it though
I do like the look of the desk overall

Aesthetics
Pros
Looks great – the finishing, paint, color – it’s impressive. The added station to put an additional laptop is great. For the price – it’s absolutely worth it. No question whatsoever.
Cons (strictly situational and won’t apply to all)
The size. It’s huge. Which I believe is what makes it so resourceful but make sure to check if it fits your desired area via the virtual measuring tab through your phone camera.
Assembly
You will definitely need two people to assemble it. It’s pretty straightforward and easy partially because of how light and cheap the wood is. The screws and all are nicely packed and it easy to identify thanks to the impressively simple manual.
Quality
Look, you get what you pay for so it’s almost unfair to the seller if I start blabbing about how cheap and easily breakable this thing is. They’ve done a good job, got it delivered considerably quickly and have a more than decent manual, toolkits etc.
So sure it’s 2 stars on sturdiness. But it’s a trade worth making for the cost.
Final thoughts
If you have the space, don’t have quite a lot of money for a station and still want something aesthetically pleasing and resourceful, then go for it. It’s great… does the job in every way.
If you’re looking to buy a station durable enough to pass down generations (pun intended), I doubt you’ll succeed. Can break with a warmup Choku Zuki from the Cobra Kai 😂

This desk is amazing for what you pay for. Very decent build quality, it looks really nice, and most of all it is extremely spacious. Huge upgrade from what I was using before.
It took me a solid hour to put it together because the tools they give you are extremely cheap, I was only able to finish the job because I had a high quality allen wrench. Simply by using the Allen wrench it provided, I ended up rounding off the edges of it, rendering it useless.
Despite the cheap tools they provided, they provide an extremely easy to follow installation video in the photo gallery on this page, I honestly don’t know how long it would have taken me had there not been a video to follow because I am dyslexic and have trouble reading instructions sometimes lol.
Overall I am extremely pleased.

Bought this desk to start my work from home journey. I thouroughly read the reviews and looked at a few other options before I decided to buy this one. I bought it because it was the best priced for the size I needed (I have 2 monitors and a laptop I need on my desk). When it came, the box was damaged, had a few holes in it due to shipping. But the desk itself only had a minor scratch, it was completely enclosed in styrofoam which protected it. The minor scratches do not deter from the functionality of the desk at all, and if I wanted I could easily cover them up. Assembling the desk was very easy (I am a 5’4″ 120 female who has no muscle tone whatsoever). The only challenge I encountered was getting the screw into the wood, which was very easily and quickly done with a drill gun (totally recommend, they’re only 20 bucks). For my application, the desk is very sturdy. It doesnt move at all when I type. And I can be a violent typer. If you bought this desk and you have an issue with surdiness, go back and tighten your screws or re-evaluate what you’re using it for. I have short legs, so the horizonal wood planks in the front are useful for me to put my feet on. The desk sits high enough that when I’m sitting at it, I have to have my chair all the way up. Overall, I am very pleased with this desk, and totally recommend it to anyone who is using it as a work from home desk.
