Love, Love, Love this desk. Instead of having a formal living room, we opted to turn our front room into a library. I bought it in grey and itsits in promenence in the library by the window. The little drawers offer great storage and the pull out writing table allows for me to use my laptop and keep many papers around. I don't use this as my office, but rather to write letters and bills. Love this desk and would give it 4 stars if it wasn't for this piece of wood that drops inside of the top of the left drawer which sometimes prevents me from closing the drawer properly. But I would definitely buy this again and in fact am thinking of doing so in another color for the guest bedroom!
