Finally hit the nail on the head. We put 2 of these together and used one of the shelves for the gap (see pic) video maker desk in our San Diego office. It's the BEST quality. Not that veneer stuff...unless they are very good at veneer. Looks like a working desk that will last.

Oh, DO consider making 2 of these your corner desk. The 'real' corner desks can look a bit low quality.
