Solid desk / Well built.
Very easy to put together. The quality of the desk for the money is solid. I was suprised how well built it is. The only negative would be the cloth drawers. I would have preferred something more rigid. Otherwise I'm very happy with the product.

Great desk!!! Great quality, assembly was easy. Excellent purchase
I love this desk! It perfectly fit my needs for the limited amount of space that I had available. The desk was packed well and had styrofoam sheets between each piece to protect surfaces. The hardware was in a long strip but individually sealed and clearly marked. All desk and frame pieces were also well marked. Assembly was done with 2 people just to make it easier. Assembly instructions were clear and step by step. The desk itself was good quality and I am very happy with the look and quality. I was concerned with having fabric drawers but they are actually really nice, light and slide very smoothly on the desk rails. I will see how it holds up over time but it looks like they should do well. Now for those people patient enough to keep reading, here are a few more details and pictures so that you can get a better perspective on size. The desk is the perfect size to accommodate all of the items that I wanted on it. The right side of the desk has my (2) 27" monitors, which I decided to have arranged on my desk via a 2-armed mount that is attached to the back of the desk (Note: because the desk has a metal frame, if you choose to use a clamp mount then you will need a piece of wood to place right in front of the frame to give the clamp more area to secure to. I used a 3/4" piece of wood which can be cut down lengthwise to fit your clamp width. I just used what I had available since it wouldn't be seen anyway, i did includeca pic). This allowed more room to be available under my monitors. I felt keeping them on their stands would really crowd the desk once I placed the other items that I wanted on it. I also have a full size keyboard mat with charging pad and keyboard, along with a sound bar, headset, and some personal items. In the corner of the desk is where I placed my computer. There is a lower tray under the corner of the desk that can accommodate the computer but I choose to use that tray for my ups and an additional external drive instead, as I wanted the computer on top where it is easier to clean, manage and I could view the nice rgb lighting that was included in the computer build. Since there is a plug strip in that corner of the desk I opted to have a family member build me a standing shelf slightly larger than my computer to place in that corner. This allows me access to the plug outlets and usb ports for temporary items I might want to use, such as a small fan or phone charger etc. All permanent powered items on my desk are tied into either the ups below or mounted power strips under the desk. The left side of the desk has a 32" monitor on the raised desk shelf. The shelf was long enough for me to also place a desk lamp, my ipad and some personal items. The desk itself has my full sized keyboard mat with charging pad and keyboard. Also on the desk under the shelf is where I placed my laptop which I use only to remote into my work server. Next to my keyboard there is plenty of desk surface space available to use. Since I am left handed I just displayed a decorative keyboard that was given to me. I know this is a lot of information but I am hoping that having measurements of items along with pictures would help anyone reading get a better visual perspective on the desk size. Make sure to read the measurements of the desk that is provided by Hawkins Woodshop as the pictures that they have can be a little deceptive. They must use a very small 14" monitor on their desk picture. I would definitely recommend this desk, and would buy again. One of my best purchases!
