I work at home once a week and needed a workspace but didnt want to commit an area of my house to a full office. Plus most desks look cluttered and ugly. This little desk is perfect for my space! I have it in my living room and it opens so I can look out into my backyard through the french doors. But I can close it and tuck it away when i need more space. When open, it is the best little workspace! It is sturdy and has plenty of room for my legs underneath and my laptop on top but it also has folders and shelves to hold my key files and supplies. It blends tight into the picture collage on my wall. I would highly recommend this desk.
