Know before you buy
Each of the two drawers measures 21 inches long by 15 inches wide and 2 inches deep. They are best suited for organizing stationery, pens, and slim office supplies rather than bulky items.
The desk top has a weight capacity of 70 pounds, which is sufficient for a laptop, monitor, and standard desk accessories. The drawers are rated to hold up to 40 pounds each.
The desk provides 25 inches of floor clearance and a leg space area measuring 45 inches wide by 19 inches deep. Most standard office chairs will fit underneath, but you should measure your chair's armrests to ensure they clear the 25-inch height.
The high-gloss surface is sleek and modern, but it can show fingerprints and dust more easily than matte finishes. We recommend wiping it down regularly with a soft, dry microfiber cloth to maintain its shine.
Assembly is required for this desk, primarily involving attaching the gold-finished metal legs to the main body. All necessary hardware is included, and the process is straightforward for most users.
