Stop selling this product until you fix the well documented issue?RichardThis is a very good product but I have been professionally assembling furniture for over 15 years and this product has a major flaw that many people have complained about for a long time and it’s still has not been fixed. This requires the end-user to drill two new holes in one piece of wood. It cannot be drilled too deep or it will go through the entire piece of wood and be unusable. I read the reviews prior to assembling the desk, thinking that the other individuals experiencing this issue were not as experienced as I was or hoping that this issue would be fixed by now. Well, it has not been fixed. I have never experienced an issue like this with an IKEA product. I hope that it will be resolved soon.
Poor qualityGregoryAfter a lengthy effort to assemble, the drawer barely fit into the desk and it sticks when moving in and out. One of the front panels was blemished. Overall, very poor quality product and I do not recomment it.

Great Desk!MerlinHigh quality and easy to assemble.
Manufacture DamagedEvanI love the Hemnes set and all the pieces I have bought in the past have always been great. Unfortunately this desk arrived with one panel of the wood split along an area of pilot holes drilled for screws. I reported it right away, the day it was delivered, and was assured a new one was being sent and would arrive in 5-10 days. This has not happened and it is now 16 days out. Customer support has not been able to tell me anything except wait another 48 hrs and if nothing happens contact us again. Ikea has always been so great about small issues like one of my Hemnes shoe cabinets had a broken cam and it was replaced so quickly. I do not know what happened this time but I now have a desk that cannot be put together at all and a computer system that is sitting on the floor unusable until I replace the old desk that had already been hauled away. Disappointed.
Almost love the deskDianeThis product would have been perfect if we could have gotten the hinges to work.
second time holes does not match.Geraldlack of vision. two bad parts does no match the holes. i had to put scotch tape to attach it. second time Ikea furniture is defected. I went to LI Ikea. the customer service was about to replace giving me a new set. but the technician said I need to bring the parts. shame if it. Ikea is not more the same friendly store.
Perfect deskHueThis desk has all solid wood. It is sturdy and apiece that would last a long time.
Good student sized desk.JoyceGood student sized desk. Would have been nice if the cupboard area shelf space was equally divided. Finding matching storage baskets to fit both spaces was a bit challenging. Liked the big accessory drawer. Assembling the desk was a bit more challenging than anticipated.
Hard to assembleKI’ve put together many ikea products over the years, and I’ve never struggled as much as I have with this product. One of the boards was not the correct size, and we had to discard it. It was very difficult to understand which holes to use for some steps. Very disappointed
Nice desk but hard to put togetherJingI enjoy the look and functionality of this desk. But it’s almost impossible to put everything together correctly. Either the parts didn’t have precise sizes or the wood expanded in the box. It was a struggle at some steps and there are many of them.
An Adequate DeskMichaelMy wife and I love the Hemnes line, so when we needed a small/medium desk, we jumped at this one. Overall, it's good, but there are a few issues. ONE, the clearance below the pull out drawer is barely enough to get my legs under while sitting in a chair, and neither the chair nor I are big. TWO, and I've had this problem with other IKEA furniture, the dowels are so tight. I hammered one stubborn one to get it flush and it caused a finished part of the desk to split off (luckily the spot is under the desk and I glued it back on). THREE, the screw holes on the metal hinges for the side drawer were ever so slightly too small for the screws, causing me to need to drill the metal to make the holes bigger, which is obviously not assembly friendly. FINALLY, the picture is of a grey desk (the very popular grey Hemnes color), but the text and actual desk is the black wood grain color. I prefer the grey, but it doesn't seem to exist anymore. It also felt a bit expensive for what it is, compared to other IKEA items.
Great style Its more theElizabethGreat style Its more the traditional look I like

Perfect small deskAmyMy daughter wanted a desk in her bedroom so she could do art projects. It fit perfectly in her room, not too big but big enough to give her work space. We already have the matching Hemnes bed in her room, so it looks awesome!
where is the white and grey?AnonymousWhy is the white and grey gone? Black brown is horrible. In the other Hemnes desks you have white and grey. Why not in this one? This one is the perfect size, not too big. Please bring back the white and grey!!!
my kids love their desksAnonymousso far so good! my kids love their desks
Small with just the right amount of storageTerriThis desk is perfect for those people with limited space. I am a 65 year old great grandmother and was able to follow the instructions and put the desk together all by myself.
Looks cute, little complicated to assemble.AnonymousIt looks exactly the way I thought it would, cute. I have a house full of Ikea furniture that I’ve put together myself and this one was more complicated than any other. It’s great you have the option to but the cabinet on whichever side you want but I think it made instruction complicated. I think I did something wrong because the drawer is very sticky.
