This desk works. Plain and simple. The wood quality is mediocre and lacking quality overall. The drawers provide plenty of storage for your light items with great movement from the mounts. The middle drawer is a drawer, not a keyboard tray. Overall, this desk is not the greatest quality but it does function as you would expect a desk to. I made this purchase for it's style and price point. To help protect the top from liquid, as this wood would expand and bubble from moisture contact, I opted to add a glass top I had cut locally. If you're looking for quality, look somewhere else. If you need a good looking desk that won't absolutely break the bank; it's definitely worth picking up.
