This desk was exactly what I needed to define a workspace in a small area of my home. I wasn't sure if my 22-inch monitor, laptop, docking station, keyboard and mouse pad would all fit on top, but they do. I purchased a stand for the monitor which allows me to slide the laptop underneath. I also replaced the drawer knob with a nickel one I had. As others have mentioned, the desk is not bright white, but off-white, which worked well in my home. Assembly was not particularly easy, but certainly doable and the desk is sturdy. Very nice for the price.
