I was looking to move to a move simplistic desk, to ensure I could keep my desk (which only holds my laptop and various office supplies) clean and orderly. This certainly helped with that desk! I have a small file box on the bottom shelf and office supplies on the upper shelf, so I feel like my desk area is more organized now. The desk was easy to put together (took around 30mins), and I love how it looks. It's a great size and it seems pretty good quality.
