When I started looking for a desk for my cramped room, a ladder desk wasn't even being considered. However, this one stood out among all desks I could find (from multiple sites, even stores!) as one of the more practicle-yet-stylish choices, especially when the price is taken into account. 

I have a small space to work with, and this desk fits in perfectly! The ladder style gives me, a 6ft tall dude, the perfect balance of comfort and space management. The shelving offered a home for things that essentially floated around before, making my small room all the more roomy. 

The style is simple, yet smart. The build takes a bit more time than standard flat-pack furniture, but that's because stability was in mind...It's a very sturdy desk! Truly, this desk feels like the completion of my space. Very satisfied all around.
