I spent a significant amount of time searching for a desk to fill the office space that I have in home. During my search, I came across the L shape desk which was not something that I had really given a lot of thought to but after researching carefully, I knew I had found what I needed. This desk in perfect for the space that I have and allows be a lot of surface space which makes multitasking easier and the style is very classic. The assembly time was not as significant as most noted. I was able to spend time with the project and was done in about 4-5 hours. The finish is nice and I am overall very happy with the desk and the decision to purchase it.
