I had been looking for a home office desk for some time, when I saw this double pedestal desk! It was nicer than I expected for the price, and the black insert top gives it an expensive, executive look. The left side has two file drawers, the right side has one file drawer and two drawers for supplies. There is even a fairly deep center pencil drawer that even accommodates a tape dispenser. The instructions are pictorial, very easy to follow. We did call the 800 number once with a question, and they were easy to reach (from the US!) and helpful. Overall the desk was easier to put together than expected. The finish is really nice. I couldn't be happier!
