Handsome solid-wood desk for the price.
I was hesitant in ordering this desk, with very few customer reviews and ratings to go on. But I took a chance and purchased it, and can honestly say I’m glad I did.
The desk is solid-wood (which is the one major reason I wanted it)… no veneers, no laminates, no MDF or particle board construction. It’s just sturdy solid-wood, as a high-quality desk should be, and with beautiful wood graining too. The design is clean and classy, not busy or tacky like some other desks designs. It has one front slide-out drawer.
It arrived almost fully assembled. I attached the four legs and drawer knob, that was it.
The only issue with the desk you should be aware of (though it wasn’t really an issue for me) is that the Espresso finish was darker than Great Offer Stock has pictured. The darker finish matched my other wood furniture perfectly, so I didn’t have a problem with it.
Aside from being darker than pictured, the staining & finish itself is nicely done, very rich, and durable. It’s not super glossy, nor is it matte, but somewhere in-between, which I myself prefer.
This same desk is offered in a smaller 48-inch length, but I ordered this larger 60-inch variant for more usable desktop space (I like to spread out and organize my work). The 60-inch is worth it, if you have room for it.
