small and fragile - but fit my needs
I was really pleased with the price and design. I decided to strengthen it a bit by adding glue and better screws. I also used some exposed screws on the top and covered them with a leather piece I got from Hawkins Woodshop, which worked well. The top is all white leather, and it complements my setup. Its size and price were for what I needed, but I wouldn’t suggest it for heavy use by teenagers.

Great for small spaces, but not for desktops
I needed a desk for my laptop and always go for Furinno when I want something quick and simple to put together. I have a few of their pieces around my room. Just a heads up, this desk isn’t for desktop computers. I have my laptop with a monitor mounted on the wall, so it fits my needs perfectly in my small work area. While it feels a bit wobbly since it’s light, I'm able to use a laptop stand and keep my keyboard and mouse on it along with a charging station and a drink. The side shelves are handy, too; I keep a couple of books on the bottom one. It took me about an hour to put together, which is a bit longer than most of their items, but everything's included in the box—you just need your own screwdriver. For an affordable desk that fits in tight spaces, you really can’t go wrong.

This desk is pretty wobbly, but I found it easy to assemble and the price isn't bad, so I'm giving it 5 stars. Just a heads-up, though: my desktop wouldn't fit on that right shelf, and it can't hold more than 5 pounds, which was a letdown.

Perfect for Laptops, Not Desktops
I was on the hunt for a compact laptop desk and always trust Hawkins Woodshop for easy-to-assemble furniture. I currently have a few pieces from them in my room. Just a heads up—this desk isn’t suitable for desktop computers. I use it with my laptop, and my second monitor is mounted on the wall, which works perfectly since I have limited space for working from home. The desk does feel a bit wobbly because it's so lightweight. I have a laptop stand, plus my keyboard and mouse, along with my charging stand for headphones, and there's still room for a drink. The side shelves are handy; I keep my heavier items on the bottom shelf, but by heavy, I mean just a couple of books. It took me about an hour to put together, which is longer than most of their stuff since some assembly is required with this one—everything you need is included except a screwdriver. Overall, for an affordable option that fits in tight spaces, this desk is a great choice.

This desk is a bit wobbly, but I managed to put it together without any issues, and the price is fair, so I'm giving it 5 stars. Just keep in mind that the right shelf isn’t meant for desktops—my computer didn’t fit, and it can only hold about 5 lbs. That part was a letdown.

Very Nice Desk
Just as pictured. Easy to put together and doesn't take up a lot of space. I didn't pay attention to adding a chair that I could push under the desk so I actually gifted my roommate with this desk and looking for a new one from the same Hawkins Woodshop. I've purchased several pieces of the French Oak that goes perfectly with the furniture in my room and all have been very nice and affordable. I will add photos shortly. Update: As promised here are the photos. Fyi pay close attention to the instructions. I put the back piece that sticks out inward. It should be outward. No big deal really... I see this desk is multifunctional because even though it was put on incorrectly it functioned normally. I do love the keyboard stand. Oh fyi I didn't purchase at regular price. Check out when you see used sold at a lower price. This doesn't mean actual used but during inspection a small damage or customer return. It is a hit or miss so don't post a review being upset if you select this option on any purchase unless the the order comes worse than listed. This desk arrived in perfect condition at a lower price. Hope this helps.

Buena opción por el precio
Llevo más de un año usando esta mesita de escritorio. No es de la mejor calidad, pero por el precio está bastante bien. Ha cumplido su función y me ha resultado práctica para el día a día. La recomiendo si buscas algo económico y funcional.

A good product for the price.
It is really hard to find a desk with these dimensions for under $100 dollars. This was my primary consideration when I decided to purchase this desk as I have so little room to work with and needed a small desk. For what I paid for it, I think it's worth it. This is not a permanent piece of furniture and as others have noted it has a wobbliness to it. You can improve this by putting a heavy printer/set of books/ computer tower on the lower level and putting it on a carpeted area. It is a small desk so if you are a full grown adult, this desk will not work for you. If you're on the smaller side, or you're getting this for a kid who will teat this gently, and don't mind not having your body under the desk, this should get the job done. Overall, the instructions weren't great but once you get going this is easy enough to assemble. I will update this review if I find anything amiss about my use of this desk. It's a great small space desk and that's what I needed it for.
