Sauder Palladia Engineered Wood 3-Drawers Computer Desk in Select Cherry

First of all, my husband and I were impressed with the packaging which ensured that the desk was not damaged during shipment. After a thorough inventory, all parts were accounted for and we began the assembly process. The instructions were clearly written with great pictures to help. Most of the parts were labeled to match the instructions. For those parts not labeled it was easy to figure them out by process of elimination or the pictures. It took about 4 hours to assemble. The finished product looks just like the catalog picture and is beautiful in our office. It looks like a more expensive piece of furniture. However, if you need a desk that sits in the middle of a room, the back is put on with finishing nails and would show.

We've had "put it together" furniture before... and it always looks nice at first, but they are inexpensive... you get what you pay for. This desk looked good in the picture and at first I thought it was a little high priced. It took two of us to carry the box into the house... it was that heavy. While putting it together I noticed every "leg" was double wall. And it uses lots of screws to hold it together. Now that it's complete, it looks better than in the picture... and sturdy! And the price was reasonable. Good product! So we bought the matching file cabinets too...
