I’m not sure if it’s supposed to be a sewing desk but it’s fantastic for it!! I’ve been searching forever for something like this and it’s so perfect for all my needs. The drawers could be a bit deeper and the top drawer doesn’t have any sides to it which is really strange. So I took a few pieces of wood strips and put glued them together and nailed them in place so that my tools wouldn’t fall off and down the back. This was my only complaint. I love this desk and it looks beautiful in my room. I’m very happy that I purchased it. 
My only challenge putting it together was when it came to putting on the table top. It was heavy to hold and try to line up the anchors at the same time. 
I would recommend it and would buy it again if needed.
