Great L Shaped Desk!
I'm really happy with this desk! It's spacious and sturdy, exactly what I needed for my office. It gives off that farmhouse/boho vibe I was going for, and the wood color is versatile enough to fit in with any decor. Assembly was straightforward too; I managed to get it all set up by myself in about 2 to 2.5 hours.

Great desk for multitasking!
I'm really happy with this desk for multitasking. I have my hobbies set up on one side with the pegboard and hutch, and my work-from-home setup on the other side. It's a bit cramped since I live in a small apartment, but it works fine. Assembly took me a little over an hour by myself, but having someone help would probably speed things up. The instructions cover four different setups: the 'L' shape with the hutch on either side and a straight layout. Plus, it includes a charging station that fits nicely in the desktop cut-out, giving me two USB ports and three regular outlets right there. I had a minor issue with delivery since FedEx messed up and sent it to the wrong building, but Colby was polite and quick to help me sort it out. Overall, the desk feels sturdy enough, and the price was surprising. Just a heads up: the edges are a bit sharp, so you might want to add some padding if you're at it for long hours like I am. Sorry, no photos since I can't share my work setup!

A fantastic deal for a great desk.
We’re really happy with this desk! In our smaller apartment, it fits perfectly. The LED lights are a fun touch, and the metal board on the back is for my collection of magnets from different states. I appreciate the shelving too—it gives me just the right amount of space to showcase some books and little decorations without feeling cluttered. The desk feels solid and not cheap at all! While it might be a bit small if you need a larger workspace, it works great for us.

Great desk at a good price!
We're really happy with this desk. It fits perfectly in our small apartment and looks. The LED lights are a fun touch, and the metal board in the back is for showing off my magnet collection from my travels. The shelves are great too—just enough space to showcase some books and small items without making things feel cluttered. If you're easily stressed by mess, this desk strikes a nice balance. It feels solid and well-made, not cheap at all! Just a heads up, if you're looking for something huge, this might feel a bit small, but it works just fine for us.

Great desk for multiple monitors
This desk is a solid choice if you're using two monitors like I am; it has ample space and might even accommodate a third one. It's built sturdy—was impressed with how solid it felt even when just partly put together. Assembly was a breeze, and adjusting the alignment of the two sections was easy. The LED strip adds a nice touch to the pegboard. Colby was great to work with, and I'd definitely buy from Hawkins Woodshop again.

Worth every cent, very versatile! Sellers are professionals.
This is a great desk for "multi-tasking". I use the side with the pegboard and hutch for my hobby stuff, and the other half for my work-from-home workstation. (That isn't ideal of course, but I live in a small apartment without many options.) I managed to get it assembled myself which took a little over an hour; if you assemble it with help it likely takes less time. The desk comes with instructions for assembling it in four different ways: the "L" shape with the hutch on the left or right, and in a straight, side-by-side arrangement with the sections set up end-to-end with the hutch on either side. All this is in the same simple instruction book. It does come with a charging station that fits seamlessly into the cut-out on the desktop and plugs into a household (usa type) wall socket, so you then have two working usb charging ports and three normal electrical plugins right there on your desktop. I also had to deal briefly with Hawkins Woodshop to coordinate with them regarding delivery since those oh-so-competent buffoons at FedEx delivered it to the wrong building and I had to hunt it down at my apartment building before it got stolen. These folks were very polite and responded quickly to my inquiries through the Hawkins Woodshop third-party contact system. Anyway, the desk is quite sturdy for my needs and was surprisingly affordable. I will add that the flat edges of the desk that your arms or torso will be in contact with are not rounded off or anything and will dig just a little into your arms if you're like me and you spend 8 hours a day at this thing hunched over it in despair while lamenting your life-choices that led you to this place in your life. A "bumper" of some sort could easily be assembled from parts found at your local hardware store (like you might do when making a diy poker table; check around online for how-to videos on those for some ideas) to mitigate that. --I apologize for the lack of photos; since I use this thing for work I'm not allowed to take photos of my work station & post them online.
