Well worth the price.
Four years and still nice. I got this November 2012. If you do scratch the underside of the glass, however, then you will see it on the top as well. This is because the glass itself is transparent, but the underside is layered with black paint/paper. This makes it opaque (do not confuse this black table with the smoke variety).It currently supports over 100 lbs of monitors and massive vesa monitor stand (since July 2015). Cable management is a bit tricky, since this is a very "open" design (see my photos). In its life, it has been disassembled, moved across the country, and reassembled. It also supported, at a time, a 25 pound UPS and an equally heavy desktop on the left and right glass (in addition to the monitors). A 10 pound cat walks all over it too.To view larger photos, open the review (https://www.amazon.com/review/RB0TEXACKJC9R). Hover over the image and a "bigger" image will float/pop up. Over over that "bigger" image, right-click, and select "open in new tab". There are currently 10 photos. If photos are missing, it's Amazon's fault (wait and refresh).

easy to modify to suit your needs
This is a great desk. It was very easy to put together and seems to be quite sturdy. As you can see with my pictures, if you have limited space, it can still work as a "L" desk. The two long pieces are completely separate and can be put together in 10 minutes each. You can simply put together the two long pieces in the area without the connecting corner piece. It is also easy to modify. The keyboard tray was too small for me, as it might be for others, so I decided to use the keyboard tray parts and make it into a monitor stand! You can use the frame of the keyboard tray and simply drill 4 holes into the corners and screw little legs on through those holes. If you want a great looking desk and easy to use and modify to suit your needs, this is the desk for that! Highly recommended

and they look awesome. But that's not why anyone's going to read ...
I currently have two of these desks (black legs, clear tops) assembled side-by-side, and they look awesome. But that's not why anyone's going to read this review. Here's the good, bad, and the asinine.Good:*Looks modern, sleek, and very professional*Sturdy design despite streamlined (very thin) limbs and supports*Plenty of clearance for my legs and shins (I'm 5' 11"). I kick the wall behind the desk before I come near the cross beams*Supports multiple monitors and desktop computers without concern of collapsing.*Provides a surprisingly large amount of work area.*Glass edges are angled to prevent scraping of limbs and chipping of the glass.*Extra of each screw in case of defects.*Superb packing. I ordered from walmart and my girlfriend from amazon. Both boxes looked like they had been dragged behind the truck upon delivery. No damage was found when we opened what remained of the box.*Assembly is pretty speedy. Took an hour without a drill and 20 minutes with one. Keep in mind I had already assembled one when I busted out the drill. I'd expect around a half hour for anyone with a drill reading the directions the first time through.*Phone number and website are provided on front of assembly instructions in case anything is lost, broken, or flat out missing.Bad:*No built in options for cable management. Invest in some zip ties if that's a must.*Limbs are all hollow. Saves on weight (and your back during assembly) but allows you to punch bolts through if you aren't careful.*No options to install drawers, a hutch, or a small cupboard. It is what it is.*You will have styrofoam everywhere when you're done, but at least your glass won't be broken.*The keyboard tray is TINY. It fits a large wired keyboard with number pad and has about an inch of glass to spare. Your mouse and keyboard will be living separate lives from now on.*You will at the very least need a philips head screw driver. I'm sincerely hoping that's not a deal breaker for anyone.*Every part is conveniently labeled with a sticker. The sticker cannot be conveniently removed, especially the large square one on the keyboard glass. You may need a razor blade to remove the stickers on the glass, or cover it up with your keyboard.Asinine:*Glass tops are all held in place by suction cups*Directions don't indicate you can decide which side has the keyboard. Simply swap parts 2 and 4 for part 6 during assembly.*Directions have you build keyboard tray AFTER attaching keyboard support to desk. This means you assemble it from BENEATH the desk. Do the keyboard assembly part of step 5 and 6 immediately after step 2. You'll be glad you did.*A drill speeds assembly up tremendously, but keep in mind the hollow limbs. I recommend drilling 95% of the way, and manually tightening with included allen wrench the remaining 5%.*The provided PC tower holder is supposed to go under the desk. That's fine if you don't mind it sucking up all the dust, hair, and debris on your floor (yay clean floors!). The corner piece of glass can easily support a 15 lb PC tower.We bought these desks to provide enough space on each for multiple monitors, a desktop PC, and an xbox. They delivered with a bit of space to spare.As you can see from the picture I uploaded, you probably will want some zip ties if you're putting electronics on these desks.

Easy assembly. However
Easy assembly. However, DO NOT put your gaming tower on these GLASS tops. They will break and your pc will go down. Use your imagination of loss in damage vs just putting your tower either on the ground or somewhere sturdy and secure. Yes I've seen pictures of people's review here putting his or her tower in the corner section but I've also seen on Reddit broken pcs falling from glass tops breaking.I don't know about you but I don't have a spare $1,000 usd sitting around waiting to hit the ground.Again, great and easy table, just don't go crazy thinking a glass top will support a 40lb-60lb tower.

Library Card too Heavy
I was across the house when I hear a crash. After investigating each room I find this. There was minimal weight for this glass pull out shelf. I have had this desk for under 2 years. Never once did I use this keyboard shelf as a work bench for welding, sawing, scrimshawing, or surgery .The only explanation for this rapid explosion of glass is those two library cards must contain the mass of a black hole.On a good note, I did discover my glass break sensors for my security system are faulty.

EXPLODING GARBAGE
I would give it a zero if I could. I was trying to clean it and it exploded in my face.

Solid desk for the price
Really good desk, the only issue I have with it is the small amount of room for your hands in the keyboard tray. I put my keyboard on top of the desk and removed the tray because of this.I have no issues putting a lot of weight on the desk (I.e. putting my heavy computer on it when upgrading etc.) it feels very sturdy.On cold days the glass and metal frame do take a while to warm up.Very happy with my purchase overall.

Not bad, but wobbly
Relatively easy to build, however, instruction needs some attention, especially bit which shows how to put moving keyboard "shelve". I`m using a very large monitor, so it should stabilize the desk. Unfortunately does the opposite.Now after a few weeks of using it, I did get used to, but first days were very annoying, cos even using the mouse was creating very slight but still, movement. Finally, if manual was more clear, the assembly could take no more than 10-15 mins for one person.

Solid, smart, modern looking desk
Item arrived and it was the wrong thing so ordered a replacement immediately (they had sent a smaller silver metal/glass desk not the black L shaped one I ordered), though this is not a reflection on the product.The replacement arrived 2 days later and was correct this time.For me, it is to be used as a music recording workstation, and after the build its solid enough to hold all my precious equipment (including computers, monitors, monitor speakers, keyboards, audio interfaces, effects processors, etc.) without fear of it collapsing or breaking the glass. It also is well enough manufactured that it could be stripped down and rebuilt without worrying about it all becoming loose and wobbly.The build itself is pretty straightforward and took me about an hour, maybe an hour and a half in total. There is an Allen (hex) key provided for the major part of the build but you will need a Phillips screwdriver to assemble the keyboard drawer.The trickiest part is the keyboard drawer as its not explained clearly in the instructions you have to take the slider pieces apart to be able to fix them to the desk, it also doesn’t explain that there is a small plastic lever inside the runner that you have to press inwards to separate the 2 parts, hopefully if you’re reading this review you won’t have to work this out for yourself.The glass in the photographs (due to the nature of the backgrounds) looks smoked, its not, its clear with maybe a very slight tint. I thought they had maybe sent the wrong thing again but on closer inspection of the photographs you can see its pretty much clear, so the error was mine. But now its built and my equipment is on it I like it as it is.Its worth mentioning the desk is bigger than it looks in the photographs, so could be worth pulling out a tape measure and checking the specs. I did this and was happy with the overall size and fits my space requirements and equipment perfectly. But it does look slightly smaller in the photos (that laptop and monitor must be huge 😊).The desk is well manufactured, all the pieces were present and correct and overall, it’s a smart, modern looking, solid desk and I’m happy with my purchase.

space wise computer desk
Classy looking. The KB tray is wide enough to have a full KB with integrated keypad. I have my mouse and a Track Pad on the desk top. No problem. Otherwise I could use the smaller Mac KB without keypad on the tray. This is an elegant solution to a lack of space. I love it. Assembly was a easy for this 83 year old guy except in discovering how to disassemble the drawer slides not obvious in the printed instructions. Luckily I found a YouTube video and discovered the secret. Because of the designer it has some sideways sway, but do not find this a negative, given its attractive style and perfect use in a small apartment where space is at a premium.
