I thought this desk had great spade opportunity despite not having any actual drawers or hidden storage. I like that there is room for the tower, some shelves, a pullout for the keyboard and a riser for your monitors. On first look, the color looked very rich/ nice, despite it being darker than the pictures (in my opinion). As we were getting all the pieces out, we realized that the metal part to the risers are welded together, but there was one piece that was broken, which is why I dropped a star from this review. We ended up hot gluing the piece on, but it ended up not being sturdy enough to hold the weight of the monitors, so we ended up having to ditch that piece entirely. Otherwise, it was fairly easy to put together and looks quite nice (but it looks better with the riser included on it).
