This desk is really great! The wood look with the black metal frame is very modern and looks really nice in my space. I also really like the flexibility of being able to move the “shelf” around for the most convenience. My one caution is that although the description says that this desk is reversible, IT IS NOT! The reversibility was not an issue for me because I was able to fit it nicely in my space either way, but I did spend almost 2 hours getting the frame all set up and somehow managed to build the mirror image of what was pictured in the directions.  I was able to fix it, after taking it all apart and starting over, and then everything worked great. Just beware that you need to build it exactly the way it’s shown in the directions! Otherwise it’s really nice — sturdy and attractive.
