This desk is OK however I was dissappointed to find that the back of the desk and the monitor shelf have no veneer on them just rough sawn chipboard. Had I paid £50 for this desk then I wouldn't have been so annoyed however as this desk cost £167.99 I was expecting a better finish, would it really have been an issue for the manufacturer to have spent a couple of extra pounds on this desk to finish it off properly. As our desk does not fit snugg up to the wall the rough edges are visible from certain angles and this will now be the overriding feature of the desk for me.
