This  floating desk is just what I needed for a recessed area in my room. I have an office in another room, so I didn’t want it to look too much like an office space.    I think of it as a decorative shelf, where I can plug in my laptop and have a few accessories on top. I hired a handiman to assemble and install, but if you are handy you could do it yourself.  The price reflects that it is made of particle board, with a veneer over it.  I’m very happy with my purchase.
