This is a beautiful desk! I'm very happy with the purchase. It's nice and sturdy. I love the desk for its simplicity, but I will admit, I did want some kind of storage to go with the desk and I did look around quite a bit before settling on this desk. Rather than look for a different desk with storage, I decided to get this desk with the 5-tier corner square rack display shelf to go with it. It makes for a nice combination of items, I think. Now I have a beautiful, simple desk, and a place to store my items that is separate from the desk as well.
