The desk is solidly constructed with good materials. The minor issues are that it does not have as wide a keyboard drawer as desired, and the height to the underside of the main surface may pose an issue for mice with high curvature on top. A Corsair K60 TKL keyboard and Dark Core mouse will fit with about 1/8" to spare height-wise, and the TKL keyboard gives the mouse about 7" width to move on the keyboard drawer. As a last note, the assembly instructions can be a bit vague, so either take extra care or get help from someone experienced in assembling "flat-pack" furniture

Perfect size for a bedroom or apartment. It’s a lot nicer than I thought it would be. From the time of shipping, price, design and looks.

This is a good desk for a small space. It took a friend of mine, who is very handy (retired dentist) about 2 hours to put the desk together. I found the assembly too daunting for me. So, if you buy the desk, get ready to spend some time on assembling it.

I am impressed with the quality and appearance of this desk! The size is perfect for a smaller bedroom office. It was super easy to assemble. It is brand new, so I do not know how long it will last without breaking or something going wrong, but so far it is good!

Desk is what I am looking for as a compact desk. It fits just perfectly in the space I had for it. Fits two 24 inch monitors, desk phone, mini tower unit and the extra space for a keyboard and the two drawers are great storage for pens and notebooks.

It was fairly easy to assemble. The parts are visibly numbered and easy to figure out. I love the finished appearance. It has been a great addition to my place.

Anytime you order furniture in a box, it's expected to have some damaged parts. This one had some major issues. I contacted the furniture company and was told it would be 2 months to get the parts. Meanwhile I need a desk, and instead I have parts laid out in my house that are in my way. I packed it up and took it back to Best Buy. Best Buy customer service is the opposite of Calico Designs. Best Buy is awesome. They apologized even though it was not their fault, and made me an extremely good deal on another desk. I couldn't be happier with the one I got and very happy this one was taken back. Aside from the defects and bad service, the quality is bad compared to the one I ended up with.

Overall pretty easy to assemble, but instructions were illustrations that weren’t exactly clear. Had to study pieces and pictures closely to determine correct sides/ends. Keyboard tray is pretty small, with my ergonomic keyboard there isn’t room for a mouse.
