Honestly, 10 stars! This is absolutely the best desk I have ever bought! Absolute must if you work from home and want that office feel. The wood is beautiful and it looks very classy in my living room. The desk is wide enough for you to have your laptop and monitor side by side and also ALL of your paperwork, files, etc. as well. Which means its quite large, make sure you have the space. Here's the downside, putting it together was not easy (the directions are not very clear) and it took me a couple hours -- but WORTH IT!
