This is a very good floating desk which I chose to have in the kitchen and use it as a kitchen table. I bought two "4" inch "L" brackets as I wanted to make sure that it holds well on my wall. You also need 2 more people to help out because "eye level" is a relative thing. You can put coffe cups, glasses, spices on those shelves. Just use your creativity. I couldn't find any defect. Just perfect! My kitchen looks so spacious now. I strongly recommend it.
