"This desk is wonderful! It is a perfect size for my 621sq ft apartment! It is sturdy and beautiful. And the assembly required was a joke... all I had to do was screw the legs in and it was done. Very easy. I am very happy with this purchase."

So glad I bought it!
Date: November 4, 2009
"I have been wanting this desk for some time now and finally got it with our 10% off registry coupon and some giftcards :) I am SO glad we went ahead and got it because I LOVE this desk just as much as I knew I would. We have a small condo and it's the prefect size, but I know it will look great wherever we go. Clean, classy, sturdy, easy to assemble and really upgraded our look. Love it!"

unstable
Date: November 4, 2009
"Despite numerous attempts to screw the legs on tightly, this desk has remained very wobbly since I bought it a couple of years ago. Too bad-- it looks great. But if you're looking for something sturdy enough for frequent use, try elsewhere."

Great value!
Date: October 22, 2009
"This is perfect for a compact, uncluttered workspace. The desk exceeded my expectations based on the price - it's sturdy, looks nice with the other furniture in our study and has a great drawer to keep necessities close (but out of sight)."

Perfect Small Desk
Date: August 31, 2009
"This beautiful black desk is exactly what I needed in my 950 sq ft condo. Lots of room for my computer and keyboard. The drawer space is more than ample. Looks much more expensive than the actual price."

Simple, elegant and functional
Date: June 28, 2009
"With its clean lines and beautiful color, it this is a perfect desk for a master bedroom. I use it to hold my laptop and just a few essentials. Dimensions are just right, and was amazingly easy to assemble. The slide out drawer has useful compartments to hold office supplies. Definitely recommend this desk to anyone looking to add both form and function to their home."

Great little desk
Date: June 25, 2009
"We needed a computer desk for a very small space. This desk fits the bill perfectly! Our only disappointments are how easily it scratches and that the drawer does not slide in and out easily. We bought a piece of plexiglass to protect the top and that worked very well."

Stylish Desk - Wonderful Find

Functional and the Perfect Size
Date: June 21, 2009
"When I first saw this desk I knew it was the perfect one for me. I had just moved into a new condo and the space that I had to work with was small and quaint. I work from home and wanted something simple and a smaller size so I couldn't clutter it up and this desk was perfect. It is very sturdy and fits a computer, keyboard/mouse, and two of my writing pads on the desk surface. The drawer makes it easy to clean it up at the end of the day. It was a wonderful purchase and I love the Windham collection now so much that I want the file cabinet to match!"

Excellent Desk
Date: June 20, 2009
"I love this desk! I was looking for a desk with a large desktop and drawers for storage and was unable to find anything until I spotted this desk in the catalog. I was pleasantly surprised it was available in black to coordinate with the other furniture in the room."

Fantastic Desk!
Date: June 19, 2009
"I bought this desk to fit a very small bedroom, but still have enough surface area for my laptop and textbooks. I got dark chair and cushion to match.It was perfect!
It is easy to move and put together, but still sturdy and reliable.
Be careful because the top finish scratches easily and the dark color shows dust.
I have had it for two years and plan on keeping it for my lifetime. Highly recommended."

Great desk
Date: June 19, 2009
"I bought this as a secondary desk in my office (to use a laptop and to study), and it has worked very nicely. It's compact, has nice clean lines, and holds up well to cleaning (we had an infected ficus next to it for a bit, dripping sap, and it wiped up nicely). Easy to assemble."

Great Little Desk
Date: June 19, 2009
"I purchased this desk in white for my 10 year old daughter's room. It was very easy to put together, and looks adorable. There are dividers in the drawer which allows her to keep her things organized. The work space is large enough so she can spread out her homework each night. I highly reccommend this desk!"

Wonderful desk
Date: June 3, 2009
"Simple and elegant lines, it is almost the perfect little desk for a master bedroom (to hold a laptop when access to one's home office & desk top are not necessary). Dimensions are just right, and was amazingly easy to assemble. The slide out drawer contains helpful compartments for office supplies. My only quibble is that two drawers, rather than one big drawer, would have been preferable (hence the 4 stars). Definitely recommend this desk."

Love the desk!
Date: May 30, 2009
"I love this desk! I like the divided drawer. It fits my laptop perfectly when I'm not using it. It was very easy to put together. I have to agree with the other reviewer, the drawer does stick a little though but not a big deal."
