This writing desk is perfect for my teaching studio. It is the right length for my student and I to sit beside each other and still have room to lay our work out to review. I also love the clean, modern, industrial look. The legs are sturdy and the bracing bar across the bottom is perfect to rest my feet on. I love this writing desk so much that after using the first one for about six months, I purchased another one for use as a media stand in my living room.
