Amazing Desk, Amazing Value!
The product came incredibly fast, and unharmed which is great for how big the box is. The setup went really well. The instructions were clear and precise, and I never felt like I struggled to understand which parts went where and in which direction. The setup took ~2-3 hours as there are a lot of small parts, and screwing everything together with the included wrench can take a while, but all in all I never felt like it was difficult, just time consuming. At the end, the table was built and set up and it looks amazing. The tabletop fits my keyboard and mouse great, and they slip under the monitor tray perfect. The monitor tray holds both of my 28" monitors perfect, with room to spare for my lamp. The side shelved fit my surround sound speakers great, and I love that they are easy to cable manage. Speaking of cable management, the grommets on the left and right work amazing to route cables to your monitors, keyboard, mouse, anything! The table is at a perfect height and sits comfortably even for a 6' guy like myself. I can also say that the durability seems solid, the tabletop is hard with no sagging, as well as the side shelves. For the price, this table was beyond amazing, and I will be recommending this company to anyone who is looking! I highly recommend this for anyone with a lot of things they want to display, and anyone who games/streams and needs space to show off what they are doing on the desk!

Really impressed on how sturdy and stable the desk is. Easy to put together only took less than an hour. Highly recommended.

Best desk, and better with a partner
That Hawkins Woodshop is a saint! My first package never showed up because the shipping company vanished with it and never responded. But when I told them what happened, they went above and beyond, sending a replacement within 5 days. They even tracked it and everything to make sure I got my desk. And the desk itself? Oh my god, it's gorgeous and bigger than I thought! All the parts are numbered, and the instructions are super clear. Just a heads-up, if you're building it solo, it'll take ages. So grab a buddy to help you out and save some time. I actually got this for my boyfriend, hoping he'd find it already built, but after two hours, I was only halfway done, and he caught me in the act, lol. Also, make sure you have a screwdriver with an adapter for the screws; the little L-shaped one they give you will wear out pretty fast. I'm beyond happy because his monster pc case fits perfectly on either side of the desk!

Excellent!
I love this desk! It's well built and sturdy after assembly. It was very easy to put together, but you must pat close attention to hole orientation in the assembly pictures. It has lot's of space and shelves, and functions just as I would expect! It is a large desk, but because it is so open it makes my room look bigger. I also like the fact that it is very easy to clean off, as well as clean under or around! I would defitnitely recommend!

Massive desk that looks very impressive, albeit a bit worn.
There are some good things about this desk. Is it spacious, and has a lot of room. You can easily fit multiple pc's, multiple consoles, multiple peripherals, and a bunch of decorative items across all of the shelves and space it has. The space this desk offers is absolutely spectacular. And the lighting strip it comes with is really nifty too. Honestly, if it weren't for the complains below, this things would get five stars across the board. Sadly, this desk also has a number of bad things about it, too. When putting it together, you have to put a bit of pressure on the monitor shelf, and the topmost shelf or when looking at them from below, you can see through the sides. This can be easily resolved, but wouldn't have been an issue at all if the side frames were even just a quarter of an inch bigger than the supports that go under the shelves. The leg room on this things is lacking. If the main shelf were 6-12 inches bigger, legroom wouldn't be a problem. But you should expect to constantly kick the back bottom support poles, and pray that the impact doesn't bend them. The biggest issue though, is that the desk looked worn right our of the box. The edges had small flecks of exposed wood. Similar to what happened to that first particleboard desk that you had for longer than you can actually remember. Nothing that technically can't be fixed by some model paint or a black sharpie, which shouldn't be needed for a new desk, and it certainly takes away from the "new" feeling of the desk. Overall though, I'd still recommend it, as the desk is huge, and has so much space. For me, that outweighs the worn issue, because it allows me to display some of my collectibles, and allows me to have two pc's on the desk (one for gaming, one for streaming).
