It's what they don't tell you that matters most.

Okay, I'll start by saying I, like most other purchasers, use this as my primary computer desk. Also worth noting is that I got this desk almost exactly a year ago, and for $65, so do with that info what you will. Pros: Cheap, especially for what I paid, and lots of surface area. Cons: I knew this going in, but wow this is my first time owning a fully MDF product. I'm sure there's varying levels of quality in the stuff, but in this desk it's basically reinforced cardboard. I've already had an entire chunk of the desk break off (the wall piece on the back, behind the bigger portion of the L) Also, there's a major technical error: if you use the longer and deeper side of the desk (which I suspect most will), any chair with armrests that's wider than 23" can not be under the desk due to the shelves, without bringing the left armrest under the smaller left side of the L completely. Other thoughts: Assembly took me about 2-3 hours by myself. Honestly, if you just want an extra desk for more room to put things or something, knock yourself out. But for everyday use, there seems to be much better options for around the same price.
