Looked quite a while for my daughter in our den (college commuting). Finally decided on this one because of the color, drawers, and the extra shelves on the right. Well built for the money. Don't expect an expensive desk, but it doesn't feel cheap either. It took longer to put together than I thought it would, mainly because I am very meticulous about parts and following directions, so that I don't have to go back and re-do things that i did wrong. The directions and parts were all very clearly outlined. Good value for the money.
