So I bought this desk after spending countless hours online shopping around for a desk that I could use as a makeup/vanity area. I was initially going to go with the desk from Ikea that had the famous Alex-style drawers for the base until I realized the shipping costs and how long it would take to even be delivered. Trying to find another desk that would fit my criteria of what I was looking for that was also within a reasonable budget was a lot harder than I imagined, but I am overwhelming surprised at how much I have fallen in love with this desk.When I bought it, I was skeptical that it would sturdy enough to even hold the new lighted vanity mirror I bought because I read other reviewers commenting on how it wasn’t very sturdy and that it said it could hold up to 100 pounds because my new mirror weighs around 70-ish, but it holds my mirror without any problem and I’m able to put so many other things on the top of my desk and in my drawer without any problem or hesitation.I would like to add though that it was a bit complicated for me to put together by myself. I tried, but the instructions were a bit confusing (particularly the part where you have to put the track on for the drawer to slide) so I’m thankful that my boyfriend was able to step in and figure that part out. Lol.Also, one of the pieces for the drawer came in with the white paint scraped off on the edge, but I contacted Amazon who got me in touch with the actual brand that makes these desks and they were super polite and helpful and sent me a replacement part right away without any difficulty.My new makeup/vanity desk is absolutely gorgeous and I’ve had so many compliments. The glass top is incredible (and much needed for easy clean-ups from spills from the liquid makeup, etc.). The drawer is super spacious and pulls out super nicely. It’s sturdy, holds my 70+ lb. makeup mirror with ease. It’s clean looking. Plus it has enough room underneath it that if i wanted to eventually just add the Alex drawers by itself or something similar, i probably could. Absolutely recommend.
