This desk is the real deal;  just as pictured and just as described.  It is ideal for small space accommodation;   it's design is classic, so it will never be outdated and the drawer described by several people as "small" seems very adequate.  That being said, I am using the drawer just for paper, stapler, pens/pencils, ruler and note paper, for which the space is ample.
  My husband put the desk together which he said required little effort, since one only needs to attach the legs to the desk top which arrives completely assembled.

Pros: Classic design;  easy to assemble, very utilitarian.
Cons: None
