This desk is very nice looking. I will have to get a glass or plastic cover though to protect the finish. It nicks and scars very easily. Oh, just a heads-up. This took two of us 6 hours to put together, so be patient. I was a bit disappointed that 2 weeks after I ordered this, it went on sale for almost $120 less. But I am pleased with the desk. Only wish I could have saved that money. Be sure to read the directions carefully and look ahead a few pages just to see what to expect. It helps to know what's coming. LOL Also, we had to leave the door off the compartment that the tower went into. The space was not deep enough to fit the tower and the cables. Make sure and measure and allow for the extra inches for the cables. It's probably better that the door not attached. I think it will allow more air circulation for the tower. I am enjoying my new desk!
