An A-plus report card!
I have long been searching for a way to get my laptop and mouse off of my kitchen counters and/or tables. While it is convenient to have the laptop close at hand during the day, all that food and drink in such close proximity to it was a bother. I had been eyeing a tiny little nook in my large kitchen, set by a small bay window....just the place for a very tiny little desk. After much searching, this particular desk popped up on Amazon, and immediately reminded me of my school desks as a child. It seemed to be just the size needed, and although I was concerned that it might prove to be too short, I ordered it.It arrived in only two days, well-packaged, and was easy for me to put together and tighten by hand (although it is probably a better choice to have two people involved, to better hang on to the legs while attaching). The legs are adjustable, as shown, so the desktop can be as high as 31"! I didn't measure the shortest height, but it appears to be grade school size at the lowest leg setting. I have it set for 30" height, and even with the storage space beneath, I can sit and type comfortably, as my legs fit below it nicely. There is just enough room for my 17" laptop, mouse and mousepad. I have used the storage space below for two black cardboard shoebox-sized storage containers for assorted desk items.The desk looks great and works with the theme of my home (I am a retired teacher)......what a delightful surprise to find such a nice item for a reasonable price. Thumbs up!

There are two Allen wrenches for a reason
This desk is exactly what I expected and very sturdy. Building it was a total bear, but this was my own fault for not looking closely enough at the directions and the actual parts.Note about the legs, they each have a flat part in the middle at a specific angle. Put flat part to flat part at the proper angle.There are depressions on the bottom that look as if the legs should fit into them. They don’t. Stop trying.Screwing them in with the desk upside down was like wrestling with an octopus. I had a helper but if they move even slightly it falls apart. Honestly I finally had to brace a leg in my cleavage. That worked.My biggest problem was assuming the screws were SCREWS. I only had long screwdrivers which would fit in the desk opening. Way too far into this endeavor I realized that I was given two Allen wrenches for a reason, to use inside and outside the desk. DOH!!!I highly recommend the desk overall, especially if you have a large breasted person who can assemble it and they know to use the wrenches included.

Perfect!
I needed a desk that was durable, the right height for a 1st grader, with at least 1 shelf for books, and a good price. There are plenty of inexpensive desks out there with no shelves for books, but adding a shelf or drawer seems to triple the price! This desk met all my requirements. Spacious shelf, spacious surface for doing homework, great price, and sturdy like you'd expect from a school desk.The legs come in 2 pieces so you can put them together at the height you want it, from 27-31 inches. The top is already screwed together, so once you have the legs together at the right height, all you have to do is attach the legs to the top. The directions show it being put together upright, so one person needs to hold the legs while a 2nd person screws the top to the legs. But I easily put it together by myself, by laying the top on the ground and laying the legs onto the top.Shipping was fast, too. Very satisfied, highly recommend!

Great version of a school desk for adults
This is a great version of a school desk for adults!Pros:* Excellent quality* Study table and legs* Adjustable height* Plenty of room for storage inside the desk.* Comes with two tools and instructions needed for setting up the desk.Cons:* The laminate top though on my table has a bubble (not fully glued on).Table tops should be flat which makes it disappointing.* The instructions were not too clear what goes where; took a few to figure it out.Please see my photo which may help you setting up your desk.Will be better to place the legs together with someone else holding the legs in place asit takes two hands to screw the screws in place (one to hold it in place while the other adjustswhich is why they included two tools instead of one.)Other than the laminate issue on the table I ordered, it is a good quality table.
