ZINUS Jennifer 55 Inch White Frame Computer Desk - Sturdy Office Workstation & Dining Table with Easy Assembly (Natural Wood Finish) - Perfect for Home Office, Study Room & Small Space Dining

I wrote a glowing review for Zinus' Soho dining table and I ended it by saying that if the Zinus desk I planned to get was even half as good, it would get high marks from me. Even though my positive experience with the dining table had significantly raised my exceptions, this desk still exceeded them. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a simple, high quality, standard size desk. If what you need is a 55" x 24" x 29" rectangle to put your mouse, keyboard and monitor on, just stop looking right now and buy this desk.As soon as I assembled the desk I bought another one. The first one I bought was the espresso color and cost me $70. The second one doesn't match (the espresso was out of stock) and cost $105, but I didn't hesitate for a second. $105 is an excellent price for this desk... $70 is an unbelievably good deal.The strength of these desks is their simplicity: a dense slab of the best particleboard I've ever seen attached to a strong metal frame by ten bolts. I drilled 3/8 inch holes in my desks for monitor mounts with confidence; the particleboard these are made out of is so dense and strong it redefines the term.The quality is excellent. The particleboard desktop and thick textured veneer feel substantial and seem to be nonporous. The metal frame is machined to tolerances so precise that it makes it a little difficult to assemble. This is a VERY GOOD thing; due to the high quality and tight tolerances, the metal frame is extremely sturdy.The simple design also allowed me to easily implement other useful modifications. I used rubber-lined duct rings as cable management along the edge of the underside by slipping the tabs between the desktop and the frame, and between the bolt head and the frame. I highly recommend this if you're going to use one of these desks for a desktop PC. And if you want to drill holes for cable management, monitor mounting, etc. you can do that with confidence; these desks have very dense and strong desktops.Obviously, I'm immensely pleased with these desks. They are the backbone of a long-overdue remodel of my home office. For that remodeling, I also bought a 20" x 20" Zinus end table to use as shelving for a printer and laptop under one these desks; it fit perfectly and is of comparable quality. I've included photos of the desk, the end table and the rubber-lined rings I used for cable management.
