Awesome Desk for Gaming
I really liked how easy it was to assemble this desk. Everything I needed was included, and the step-by-step guide made it straightforward. It does take a bit of time, but organizing the parts beforehand helps. I'm pleased with the solid drawers compared to other desks I've seen that use flimsy materials. Plus, one of the drawers has a lock, which is great for keeping some things safe from curious hands. Another bonus is the built-in charging station—no more hunting for outlets or using extension cords. It fits perfectly in my son's room, and he loves it!

Gray Office Desk
This desk is really nice! The quality is impressive. It does take a few hours to put together, especially with kids around, but it wasn't too tricky. The color is great and goes well with other accessories. It’s for our home office. The space it offers is ; there's plenty of room for everything. I’d recommend it!

Great Desk for Our Home Office
We really like this desk! Putting it together was a breeze, and it turned out sturdy and looks great. My wife set up her tower PC in the lower right section and has a printer in the upper left spot. There's plenty of space on top for her monitor, a basket, and some decor. It came with everything we needed and feels like a solid deal. The wood grain and black metal trim are nice touches. We'd buy it again!

I just got this desk and I'm pretty pleased with it overall. Putting it together was mostly straightforward, though some parts of the instructions were kind of tricky and could use a bit more clarity. I had to check a few steps more than once, but it was nothing too annoying. Once it was all set up, it looks fantastic! The desk feels sturdy and fits perfectly in my space. It's exactly what I wanted. Even with the little bumps in the instructions, I'm happy with it and would recommend it.

Stylish and handy desk for my home office
This desk is exactly what I needed! It feels sturdy and well-built. The drawers on the left side are great—especially the top one with a lock for storing valuables, while the bottom one is perfect for hanging files, which is handy. There's also a shelf for my computer tower on the right, and I added a shelf above for my notebooks. My bug monitor looks up there. The desk is spacious, letting me spread out my laptop and monitor without feeling cramped. The keyboard tray is decent, though I wish it were a bit wider to fit my mouse comfortably, but it still works. Putting this desk together took me about 6 hours with a cordless drill. The instructions were mostly clear, despite a few awkward phrases, and they covered all the common issues. Just a heads-up, there are lots of parts to deal with! Everything I needed for assembly was included, and all the holes matched up perfectly. A couple of cam knobs were a bit off, but luckily, they included some spare pieces. I wasn't sure about the LED strip at first, but I'm glad I added it after seeing it in the instruction. You can choose from various colors and patterns, but I'll probably stick with the soft daylight setting—it adds a nice glow under the shelf without being too bright. They even included a small hook for coats, although I didn’t use it since my desk is right by the file cabinet. Overall, I'd recommend this desk if you're after a stylish and practical workspace that feels comfortable and stable.

Great for smaller PCs
This desk looks really nice and has a sleek design. It's sturdy for sure, but I found the racks a bit too small for my PC.

Awesome Gaming Desk
I was really pleased with how easy it was to assemble this desk. Everything was included, and the step-by-step instructions were straightforward. It does take a little time, but sorting out the pieces made it smoother. I like how sturdy the drawers are compared to other desks that use flimsy materials. Plus, having one of the drawers lock is a nice feature for stashing away stuff I don’t want anyone messing with. The built-in charging station is also a big plus—no more hunting for extra outlets or dragging cords around. It fits perfectly in my son's room, and he loves it!

Quality desk for a budget price
I'm picky about precision and alignment, especially when it comes to my workstation, and I expect the worst of budget furniture off Hawkins Woodshop, but I was happy with this one. To get the best result, you must leave full tightening of fasteners until the entire joint affected by their alignment is assembled. So if you want your desk surface to be flush across the two pieces, assemble them loosely to the frame on the bottom, to the frame on the sides, and assemble the frame itself loosely. Then align the pieces, and hold them in place as you tighten things up. This is standard assembly practice, btw, nothing new to this item. To do any better they would need costly precision and different materials. I used a drill with an impact driver set to the lowest torque to make it quick and easy. The results are great! No annoying lip between surfaces, a smooth appearance, no wobble. My complaints: One, if you plug the led light strip into the provided usb port for power, it emits a high pitched hum. You can get used to it, it's almost like an old tv. Using a usb plug in one of the outlets minimizes, but doesn't quite eliminate, that. Two, the drawers are as shown in some of the images, but not as shown in the assembly video. There is no side wall, no drawer slides. It is wood on metal, and it does not slide very easily when loaded. Not at all like my previous wood on wood desk, which slid very easily. Perhaps some dry film lubricant is called for. But at least they are wood drawers, not fabric. When I first opened the box I did an inventory using their parts list, marking them all off as I inspected them for the expected scratches and damage that this price range on Hawkins Woodshop seems to inevitably come with, but I was happy to find that every part was accounted for, none missing, and none had any blemishes at all. The holes all aligned perfectly. I omitted the keyboard tray because it doesn't fit my chair and I tend to bump them like a fidget toy with my knees, and it works fine without it, it's not structural in any way. My son and I carried it into place, one of us on each end, and there was no sagging even as we carried it. It's not too heavy, but it doesn't feel light, it feels substantial. The black finish on the wood is smooth, good for writing on. I do use a large desk pad for my main work area, but outside of that it seems durable and scratch resistant for normal use. It has adjustable feet on all 8 positions, which really helped because my chair mat for rolling on carpet is too big and sits under two of the inner feet. So extending the other feet down lets it sit in the plush carpet without any wobble or tilt. Overall, I am very happy with it and the price.

Love this desk!
I was looking for a wider desk to accommodate two larger monitors side by side. Compared to other alternatives, this desk checked all the boxes for what I was looking for. It’s very durable and was easy to put together. Instructions were easy to follow. It did take a a bit of time and there are quite a few pieces but everything was marked clearly which helped in the assembly. I have a full size pc tower so I opted to not install the shelf above the tower as my pc would not fit due to being too tall. Still looks clean however.

Nice Desk. Just didn't work out like I imagined.
I'm a little disappointed. The desk looked great in the pictures. It was easy to put together. I had to leave off the top shelf part. It made my moniitors too high and gave me a headache. The desk didn't work out like I thought it would. I have already put it together and threw away box. I would have returned it if that wasn't the case.

Perfect for my multiple PCs and a printer
I really like everything about this computer desk. Prior to buying it I had all my equipment on a 6-foot wide and 2-foot deep worktable and it was not very tidy. This desk supports all the equipment and is 1 foot 1 inch less wide plus I now have a drawer for supplies and two file drawers. It's as if someone came in and looked at my equipment and designed a desk for it. Took a while to assemble but the instructions were very easy to follow. There are many hex screws so take care with the supplied allen wrench as I striped it out near the end of assembly. I had an allen wrench of my own that I used to finish the task. Love this desk and the price was quite reasonable! There is one con which I expected I would encounter so I am not changing my rating. The feet of the large computer on the bottom right side were bulging the metal grate due to the computer's weight, and the computer would easily wobble. I feared the metal grate would give way so I bought an inexpensive black shelf and cut it to size so it would lay over top of the "entire" bottom shelf. This allowed the computer to securely sit on that shelf and not wobble if the desk was bumped.
