The desk is nice. I don't really like the soft material drawers, but they'll do. The 8 drawers for the size of the desk are convenient. The desk is sturdy, and the directions were tricky at the beginning, but once I figured it out, it was a snap to complete. I have a rectangular speaker that's a little over a foot long and 2" wide, a small desk lamp, a 25" monitor, a small pc box, a landline phone, the keyboard, the mouse, and still have room for notepads and other misc. items. It's 47 and a half inches long, 19" wide, and 30" high. Those are exact measurements for the one I have. Everything today is overpriced, so if the price doesn't bother you, buy it if you are interested in it.
