Techni Mobili 38" W x 22" D Woodgrain Computer Workstation Desk with Keyboard Tray - Ergonomic Home Office Desk for PC, Laptop & Gaming Setup

Well, my son is into gaming and now he has a few PC games he is enjoying. As a HS junior we agreed it was time for him to have his OWN computer set-up in his room (sans internet) instead of using the main Family Room computer. So, doing my due-diligence and armed with the aggregate knowledge of Amazon reviewers, I went on a quest for the ideal desk. Durability. Cost effectiveness (not just CHEEEEP....but reasonable for value.) I ruled out 100% the glue-and sawdust junk. Amazing that these desks can go into hundreds of dollars too. Then I found THIS. REAL METAL and NOT junk sawdust. The faux-wood parts of this desk, while made of wood composite (maybe a deluxe sawdust and glue, who knows...) are SUPERBLY manufactured. Pre-drilled, ID'd and numbered. Hard, smooth, and looks durable. Powder-coated silver square-tubular frame. All screws are individually packaged. The instructions are fairly good, I think, if you can read (or dare I say CHOOSE to read...) and can follow a schematic. I'll give the instructions a "B". I've seen better, but I've seen much worse. They even give you a mini-philips screwdriver (the throw away kind).It took me about an hour to slap together. It IS true that the screw holes (actually the threaded metal inserts) may not be aligned precisely. Just take your handy-dandy freebie philips screwdriver, stick it into the threaded insert in the hole and just wiggle it a tad. The threaded insert will then line up properly. I have no idea why some comments complain about complexity. Just put it together systematically, looking carefully at the schematic. It's not rocket science, but there is a step-by step process provided. Thirty minutes to an hour at most. It really looks nice. It's compact and fits my space perfectly (although I believe that there are larger styles available). Oh...the PRICE. That's the beauty of this thing. At $87 it's REALLY hard-to-beat in a sea of pricey sawdust-and-glue desks. Given the lower storage area for a "desktop" computer - and in view of the soon demise of these - I'll likely come up with a more creative use for the space since I'm also getting an Amazon small profile refurb. computer for my son along with a 24" Monitor. Amazon really pulls it together.Just think of the time, gas, and tax saved......even keeps your car insurance rates down, eliminates parking lot dings in your doors and stretches your tire life since the mileage is lower for the year...thanks, Amazon!
