The work from home phenomenon prompted us to buy this for our living room. My husband has an office in a studio but when he’s out there, it is hard for me to manage working and child care alone. We liked the idea that this will fold up and be a bookcase when we are not using it. 

This expectation is the reason I reduced it by a star. Yes, you can fold it up, but it can’t sit flush against the wall if you want the mobility. The glass top is nice, but the design would be better if the glass were oval on the end with the hinge mechanism. Then again, I’m not a furniture designer, so what do I know It is beautiful and it gave us a second workspace so, problem solved.
