Beginnings Desk Brown - Sauder

This is really nice product. It's compact , requires less space and easy to install.

Very good

I bought it use for my studies as well as for home office.

Stickers could be less revealing. Include a screw driver or something to actually screw the nails and screws.

Looks as advertised, will take 4-5 hours to assemble.

Fits in small bedroom. Nice color. I really like the fact that it has a large chair opening so you can use a number of different chairs and are not limited to a small office chair. Not expensive so is a great value. Simple design if that is what you are looking to buy.

It works well as a 3d printer stand and the storage is perfect size for a standard roll of filament. I like your product that locks together, I have some (8) nice cupboards that are that way. I did but 1 screw out through the side of one of panel

Sturdy, easy to put together and looks really nice. Drawer bottom cracked slightly when screwing on the roller, was told a replacement would be sent.

I'm a full time college student and busy mom of 8, so this desk is great for my school time.

Probably the worst Chinese product I've ever had the displeasure of assembling. I get it's only about $90, but just about ever possible thing was wrong. The instructions were not as specific as it could be, parts were not labeled with the right sticker from step 1, screws were missing, some holes were not milled correctly, the same weak screws were supposed to be used to secure the hinges which would inevitably rip over time, and to top it off- I realized there was a giant dent in the top part of the desk after being about 75% done with installation. All in all you'll find the exact same quality in anything else from Amazon, Bed Bath Beyond, Walmart, etc. I at least expected there to be some quality control when ordering directly from a company that specializes in furniture. If not for these problems I'd give a 4/5.

It's a sturdy and looks nice. It just take some time to put all together.

Replacing the same desk I had purchased in 2006. Already knew the quality. Upper right connector not working well, putting in small angle irons.

There is just one issue in one drawer's slider. It's not working properly. It gets stuck in between while opening and closing it

This is a nice product for the price but the assembly was brutal! There are so many nuances to putting this together for such a simple desk! Also missing letters on pieces made it harder than it should be.

Great upgrade for work! I like the keyboard tray and that there is a drawer and cabinet

As a former Sauder employee I looked at this very closely as I assembled. The pieces themselves were in great condition, no noticeable defects and made well. Instructions were clear, though a few pictures were hard to decipher. Some of the hardware was missing the label but easy enough to figure out with the legend and process of elimination, and thank goodness for the "spare" hardware because there weren't enough cam dowels in their assigned pocket to secure the top. There was just enough with the spares. Assembly took me maybe 3-4 hours, I didn't look. It wasn't grueling work, just a lot of stuff to fasten by hand. Easy for one person alone. Not sure why I didn't grab my drill, I was up there just crankin away on that screwdriver. It was an easy workout with a reward at least. The small drawer had a bad catch in it once finished but I took it out and tightened down the screws in the slides on the drawer and inside the unit as much as I possibly could, and it went away. I think I need to do that to the keyboard drawer too but I'll wait until I thread my new keyboard through the hole in the back (nice feature) to dismantle that. The holes in the plastic drawer pulls are not deep enough for the screws provided and it was hard to find a screw sized right, so I used a washer with each screw in the small drawer and cabinet door since I don't care if those aren't flush and I was impatient to get it done that night. Then I took the keyboard front handle to my dad the next day to drill out the holes (I figured I'd crack it somehow if I tried). It'd be nice if the inner keyboard front handle holes were countersink holes so the screw heads would recess into the unit, they still stick up when fully screwed in but it's not terrible, they're not sharp. Overall it will serve its purpose well enough after the handle modifications, it looks nice and is sturdy. Great for the money.

Easy to put together

As a former employee I looked at this very closely as I assembled. I have a small list of grievances but overall it will serve its purpose well enough after I made a few modifications to the handles.

Super excited to use this desk. It is easy to put together. I love the color of the desk. I am excited that it has a keyboard drawer and another drawer on top. It also has a big cabinet door as well to hide all of the odds and ends.

Detailed and clear assembly instructions. Nice oak finish. Great for small rooms/spaces.
