Well made, versatile and worth the price!
Purchased for my elderly handicapped mother, as a bedside table, to replace the hospital type she had. For her it was not easy to put together. Yet she is 80 and uses a walker. Yet she did it, after multiple hours. I helped where I could ( stubborn.)Purchased the big one, with three drawers. So if someone is young, or middle aged, let alone gets the smaller one and or uses a power tool, yes would be easy. It is beautiful. Very well made, and best of all has drawers! Which 95% of the bed side tables don't, and if so it is one tiny little cheap drawer. We have hard wood floors, it rolls very nicely and the size of the wheels are fine, some complained about that. Not hoing 4 bying with it.

Easy Assembly and Works Great
This rolling desk has held up well. Assembly went smoothly, all the parts fit correctly, and the instructions were clear. It has useful drawers and side storage, and the wheels make it easy to move around when needed. The height adjustment works as advertised. Paid $82.99, same as the current price, and I have no complaints β great compact workstation.

Great desk and multi use!
Bought this desk to put my puzzle board on and also to do my diamond paintings on. It works amazingly! It is so nice being able to roll it up to the couch or recliners when I want to work on them and sit in comfort. The drawers are sturdy for being fabric. I roll it on carpet and hard flooring, moves easily on both. When Iβm not doing any craft, it looks nice pushed up to the wall and just sitting in the room, unlike a card table, it looks like it is supposed to be permanent furniture. The size is perfect for my 1500 piece puzzle board and stand. I can use the stand for my diamond painting too and still have room next to the board for the puzzle box or diamond supplies. Woth it large enough to hold the stand, I donβt get a sore neck from constantly looking down. The adjustable height is great too. If I want to stand I can just raise it up, and I donβt have to take everything off the top, if I just do one hole at a time. With it not being electric, I donβt have to worry about the motor going bad (many electric tables that I looked at, the reviews all had that same complaint about the motor). Assembly was super simple. Instructions were very clear. Wouldnβt hesitate or look much further for a dependable, well made, affordable, mobile, universal desk.

Exactly what I needed
Exactly what I needed! Could it be a bit higher quality? Sure. But try finding a decent sized desk with wheels and drawers..... I'll wait. The price is right for the quality so it's fine. The drawers are fabric but i knew that. They are supported well in the tracks so they hold my things just fine. Can't put anything too heavy in them but they still do the job. I got a new job and its mostly remote. My office has to be in my bedroom right now and even with a blurred background I wasnt comfortable with the camera angle, you can still tell its a bedroom with my bed behind me when the desk is along the wall and the blur effect sometimes has faults. I wanted to be able to turn so the desk faced the corner of my room where my closet is. My old desk could be dragged but this is way easier. I love the shelf the power bar sits on, makes turning it smoother. My little work space is slowly coming together. The desk fits my laptop and monitor, I have 2 matching monitors on the way and I can tell they'll fit without issue. I just received that light that covers the whole space (another Hawkins Woodshop score!) And my new microphone so no more headsets that make me look like an air traffic controller! I'm very happy with this set up and cant wait for it to come together even more can't wait to paint over the terrible wall/trim color too! New job, don't fail me now! I want to pay painters this time! But, that's besides the point. My new space makes me very happy and helps me focus more on work and not be self conscious about how I appear on screen. Its a temp-to-permanent thing so trying to make the best impression, plus, I want a good set up regardless so I can be productive and comfortable. I dont see myself using the height adjustment as its manual and you need to move the pins. Not sure how to do that with a desk full of equipment. Thats part of the complaint I have about quality too. However, I haven't actually tried. I think I will. I never understood standing desks until this job. I get it now. I got up and stood far more when in person. I think thos one had 2 size options, I got the larger width if so.

Drawers work great
I purchased this desk as "used" but it still had all the labels on each piece for assembly. It did take me quite awhile to put together but I just went slow to make sure I got it right, I'm a 77 yr. Old woman so if I can do it so can you. It is kind of scary when you see all the different size screws so you need to identify each one and make sure you use the correct ones. It turned out just like pictured and the cloth drawers are sturdy and work very well. The only reason I deducted one star is because the wheels are not the best. I could not tell the J wheel from the K wheel and they were not marked. I have a request into Hawkins Woodshop to see if they can help with this. It was also wobbly but I just unscrewed one wheel a little and that solved that problem. I can see that it would be a "process" to raise the desk but since I will only use it in the lowest position I am not worried about that. But if you need to lower and raise on a regular basis this might not be for you. Over all I am very pleased with this desk, I use it in front of my sofa where i keep my laptop and it also is where I eat my dinner. Nice looking and sturdy.***update: I had to buy new wheels because those that came with it just did not roll so that added another $14 to the price. Hawkins Woodshop should just put decent wheels on to begin with.
