I have been working at my dining room table and wanted to carve out a space in my apartment for an office "nook": something peaceful and a space that would allow me to focus without a huge bulky desk. I enjoy this desk a ton. It looks great and it gets the job done. I would advise buyers or potential buys to watch out for your shins/knees because that bar will get you.  I plan to get a padded folding chair, that will be a great height.
