This was fairly easy to put together, I did it in about 90 minutes. With 2 people it would have been a snap. It is spacious. I like the glass top because it cleans easily and doesn't stain. I use it for watercolor and like that I can keep it at a slight angle but change it when totally flat is needed or I want to do something more upright. I attached a clamp-on light for direct light on my work but can turn it so it shines up through the underside of the glass should I need to trace something. The bottom bar is useful for keeping tools from sliding when the surface is cranked up. It also gives me area to leave my tape. I chose not to install the drawers as I didn't need the storage and it gives me more legroom. The height of the desk is not adjustable if that is important to you, but it suits me as any regular furniture. For the money, I think this is great and I am enjoying working at it.Read full review

I have to say that based on the price, my expectations were not all that high. I wasn't looking for a professional grade drafting table. If the table functioned as a table I would have been satisfied. What I received, however, far surpassed what I was expecting. First, the packaging of all the parts ensured everything arrived safely. Even though the box was a bit beat up, the packing material kept everything safe. Assembly was the example of simple. All of the parts (including the screws) were clearly labeled and the instructions were very well written. That being said, in the first few steps, be very careful of correctly identifying the "front" of the table (there is a small hole on the top of the side pieces - look carefully at the instruction's illustration for orientation). Other than that, putting the table together was a breeze. Having two people assembling would have made things a bit easier, but I was able to do it by myself without any problems - it just took a bit more time. Also, don't overtighten the screws, doing so runs the risk of deforming the square tubing that makes up the frame. The table itself is very nice looking and seems quite sturdy. As assembled, there is no edge to hold a T-square against, but if I remove the shelves on one side, I think it would work. In any event if I am doing drafting work, I use a drafting board. The "lip" on the front of the table keeps the board from sliding off, even when the table top is tilted. Is it equal to the drafting tables I used at school? No, but then it doesn't cost several hundred dollars. Bottom line, for the price, I am extremely happy with this. I would write the same review if the table cost half again as much.Read full review

It's a nice desk and works well for drafting table however, it is not as tall as I would like and I didn't realize this when I purchased it. It is basically the same height flat as a normal desk and I would have preferred it to be taller maybe more like a stand up desk. My other problem with this is that there is no flat surface to lay items you are working with while the desk is tilted and therefore I need to have a smaller side table near by. It was pretty easy to put together (by myself) and seems to be pretty sturdy.

I have a more expensive table and i ordered this desk because i wanted to create and second work space for drawing ,painting and inking. I must say this table is awesome. For the price I'm super impressed. I highly recommend this to anyone who wants to save a buck. Its not too big or too small, but if you're searching for an incredibly large desk you might need to go with a more expensive table otherwise this table is perfect for anyone who just wants to start doing some art!

So Getting back into my art, this is legit the best drafting desk out there for the money!! Good quality, packaged well, easy to assemble, realllly pleased. The desk comes w a small 2 canvas storage containers that mounts on the inside. I opted not to install that for the additional leg room. I’m 6 foot. But you can NOT beat this desk for the price.. added an office max LED Clamp desk light (like it was made for the desk) and a cheap IKEA desk chair... PERFECT set up You can not go wrong with this desk! Highly recommend
