The color !!!!!!! It is not " cocoa " as in online description but a combination blended soft light gray and light brown. I love the length and width of the desk. I'm not cramped for space. The modern look isn't my style but considering this was the ONLY desk suitable; I can live with it. Because the " L " shape of the legs faces the wall there is no issue with spacing for a chair. It blends in with my 5 foot tall, 5 shelf metal cabinet so it doesn't clash with the wooden furniture at the other end of the room. The sturdiness is good but wobbles a tiny bit  on carpet if not enough weight is on top. This is to be used as my non-computer business desk.  The way the legs are placed I can stack boxes, whatever underneath and the outside frame and the bottom leg frame hold them in place. Beats any from a hardware store, Staples etc. It's worth the money and cost for assembly was cheap. Highly recommend.
