Replaced a very large office desk, I was trying to save actual floor space without loosing much desk space. I think this worked. I have a lot of projects, crafts and stuff.The desk seems surprisingly sturdy. I wouldn’t stand on it (like I did my old desk to reach stuff) but I did put a rather heavy older laser printer on the file folder side and it holds it fine. It hangs over but it is a very large (heavy) printer and didn’t think it would fit anyway so it’s a plus.For being fake wood or laminated “stuff” it looks really nice. I really love the color. I haven’t scratched it yet but I am careful.One of the things to keep in mind is when it gave measurements in describing the desk the width measured include the top shelf separately but looked like it was just over the desk itself but after following instructions properly you realize it hangs off the back a few inches. This is something I think some people were saying was an issue when putting this shelf on. They thought it lined up even on top of the desk (which would align the metal shelf support over a plug and make the depth only the size of desk) but the shelf does not end at end of desk. See picture with tape measure showing hang over the back. This ads 3 inches to the depth of the desk. Personally I preferred it once I set desk up because it gives just enough space for cords and stuff off the back of main desk but the top shelf is snug to wall.The light strip is a nice add on but not something I have used much except to play with when I set it up. You can link to your phone so it was easy. They are out of the way and probably useful for extra light but I have extra lighting in my office so it wasn’t a selling point but it does any color you can think of.I love having everything off the ground. My tower fit great and left enough room for my base speaker on the shelf above it. (Adjustable height on shelf above tower)The filing cabinet is much smaller than my regular office drawers were but I expected it and condensed some items. It would have been nice if the file hangers were 1/4 inch longer. I had to put clips to prevent folder from falling off and I can see someone being upset by it but I figured out a fix. See picture for solve if you need.The file drawer has a holding fit close. I thought it was a defect but really it is to prevent the drawer from opening to easy so it requires a good push to close and a tug to open. This could be an adjustment if you open frequently. Top drawer just normal closure.I am on the short side (5’1”) and still use a small step for my feet but I have plenty of leg room to fit step and is very nice. Actually more room than my older desk, not sure how that worked out but it did.It has taken some getting use to with the monitors being so much higher and my neck would get soar looking up m, but after time it has been easier and I wanted them higher so this is a good thing.The hardest part of any new desk is the entire moving your computer stuff. I wish there was some sort of back on this to hide cords but it is what it is. If you wanted it not against a wall, say just in middle of room, which I used to do, this may be something to figure out. I could figure something out I guess but they do stay out of the way so it is just aesthetics rather than function.I shopped around for a while for the right desk for me and I would recommend this desk. I think it is great.
