Product details

The tabletop has pre-drilled holes to make it easier to attach to the underframe.

Board-on-frame is a strong and lightweight material with a frame in wood, particleboard or fiberboard and a recycled paper filling. It requires less raw materials and is easy to transport, which reduces the environmental impact.

The plywood-patterned edge band adds to the quality feel.

Reviews

Not what I thoughtMariaThe top doesn’t hook,nail or stay together with the bottom parts. There’s is no way to keep the top from moving when you shove or push a bit.4
Lagkapten/Alex deskTracyLove this desk and it fits perfectly in my crafting room. Drawers are roomy and fits tons of items. And it looks great! Relatively easy to put together!5
Perfect for my studioLoriThis desk is what I needed for my studio. Perfect for my needs. Good quality and pretty easy to put together.5
DeskJasonOverall,. It's pretty good. Recomended if you are n Budget.5
It's complicated - Lagkapten/Alex desk/drawer setKatieI love my desk and especially the deep drawers. However, it was confusing to put together and took a lot longer than it should have (I have several other ikea pieces I have assembled). Specifically, the top sections of each drawer unit had designated screw holes (4) to attach drawer unit to the desk top as well set of 4 holes at each corner for a total of 20 pre-drilled holes. I found this confusing because I thought maybe the 4 holes on each corner were meant for wheel casters on the bottom (not top) of each unit? I watched a couple of YouTube videos to see if anyone pointed this out but didn't come across anything to explain the reasoning. So, I forged ahead defaulting to the fact that the larger 4 holes were meant for attaching the drawers to the top. It would be helpful to point out (if this is how it's supposed to be) whats/whys of various elements of the design in the instructions. Other than that , I'm very happy with the desk.3
Shocking low qualityLarsLess than 24 hours and white coating is peeling off desk top. Very disappointing.1
DefectiveRobertaI’m a fan of the product, this is my second unit. However one of the drawer units were defective. Started the return process but ended up scrapping it because I didn’t want the hassle of going to return in person. 2
Wish it Sat Higher JaniceI really like the desk; however, I wish there was a way to have it sit higher. I don’t think I’ll be able to work at it all day with as low as it sits.5
Vanity Briannaamazing 5
I like itAnonymous reviewerthis is my first buy from Ikea and I like it. I got the wood top and white drawers. it's clean cut and it goes really well with the aesthetic in my room. it weirdly lower than I wanted so I had it raised. the drawers are a little stiff but that's just one thing. other than that, not really any complaints. 4
Love the quality DawnI got the desk to make a vanity and it didn't disappoint. I love the quality of their furniture. So easy to put up 5
Love the desk, but kinda cheap for priceConnieI love the desk and tall drawers very much. It’s exactly what I wanted. It’s pretty expensive for how it’s made. I thought it would be very sturdy and thick wood but some of it was made very cheap. Kinda disappointed how much we paid and how cheap it’s made. The insert for drawer Didn’t even fit. It showed bought together and I bought one to try it and it doesn’t even fit. 5
6 Years LaterAnonymous reviewerI have had this desk for 6 years and I still love it. I have had no issues with it and I like that I can replace the desktop so easily if I mess it up some how. 5
❤️JessicaLove it! Using it as my vanity. 5
excellentLacvery nice5
Good in theoryMariWhen assembling desk we noticed one of the sides for the drawers was missing holes, so we had to drill some ourselves because without that, it was wobbly. 2
Works nice for a craft deskSamanthaAmple storage in the drawers for my tools and supplies. I was able to put it together alone as an older gal. Driver was nice and brought the boxes inside for me. Only suggestion is to make sure the cabinet base with the wheel holes is on the top of cabinet, that way you can attach the desk top. It's kinda clear and not at the same time in the instructions.. I did make that mistake on one of them and had to fix it. Otherwise I like this desk and happy I got it.5
Excellent valueAmberThis desk is exactly what my daughter was looking for: a lot of easy-open drawers for storage and a large, quality desktop.5
Great desk with lots of space.DisaI am using this desk as a vanity. It has plenty of drawers of varying sizes for storage. Overall, a great product.1
Lots of storageStaceyFairly easy to put together with lots of storage for my child, but the drawers are very cheap and the screws don’t hold tight to the sliding mechanism so the drawers click when opened and closed4
