This is a fantastic desk. It raises up and down smoothly. It seems to be a good quality. There is plenty of storage. Just note it’s a beast to assemble. Prepare to take more than a few hours with two people.

Beautiful desk, but prepare yourself for solutely love the finished desk. It’s substantial, looks beautiful, has plenty of workspace and storage, and feels like a much more expensive piece of furniture once it’s together. It was exactly the look I wanted for my home studio. The reason I’m taking off one star is the assembly. This is NOT a quick project. There are a lot of pieces and a very long instruction manual, and some of the sequencing is frustrating and unnecessarily confusing. My husband is very handy and still spent hours putting it together—with increasingly colorful commentary as the evening went on! That said, once the ordeal was over, we both agreed the finished desk was worth it. I love it. Just give yourself plenty of time, spread everything out, and maybe don’t schedule anything else for the day.
