This small desk fits nicely in my 13-year-old daughter's room. She just needs a place to do her homework and makeup and so far it's working out great. It's actually bigger than I expected, which is good -- there's plenty of surface area for her to work with since she can put her lamp, mirror and pens, etc. on the top shelf. It's a little wobbly (not ideal, though easily solved by cramming some paper under one of the legs) but overall a good buy.
