We don't have an office, but we have a huge breakfast nook.   I did not want to detract from the light coming in through our huge windows, but needed a desk unit to incorporate so that I would stop piling on the kitchen table.  Well, this is so compact and efficient, we added a second to the other side of the room!    They look fabulous and took less than 15 minutes to set up.   If you have a small space for a desk - this is perfect.
