Melissa Mid Century Walnut Desk by Linon

I absolutely LOVE this desk. It is solid wood as far as I can tell. Not partical board. The varnish finish is nice and well done. The desk came in great shape and all parts were there. It was easy to assemble. Just had to install the legs and cross pieces in between the legs. I am using the desk for my sewing machine so I dont have to keep getting my machine out of the closet. I am very happy with the mid century style. I have this mid century style desk in a room with other antique high quality solid wood pieces and it goes well in the room with them. The drawer has ample storage. The desk is sturdy. It is very functional for my needs.

Absolutely impressed with the quality of this desk. It’s the perfect size for our space. It was quick and easy to put together and it looks amazing! I can’t recommend this desk enough. And it’s real wood!

I’m really pleased with this purchase. The size is perfect. It feels really sturdy and well made. It was simple to put together. All the pieces were included and well marked. I had no problems with pieces not fitting like other reviewers mentioned. I feel like the top could be a little thicker and a tiny piece of the veneer chipped while I was putting it together so I’m concerned with it not wearing well over time but for the price, the style and ease of assembly exceeded my expectations! Of course, i immediately changed the drawer pull for something more interesting!

As many mentioned, the drawers do not run smooth. This is not because they are natural wood, but because there is no mechanism in, its wood on wood sliding. Not too bothersome tho. Legs and base are wood, the top is laminate. The table looks nice, good size for an average desk, and stable enough. Mine came with a chip by one of the drawers, despite an intact packaging at arrival, which makes me say it is a manufacturing quality assurance error. I would buy it again, but be ready that you might have to make some of these compromises.

Perfection, quality, and easy to assemble. The quality is outstanding. From the moment I opened the box, I was delighted. I'm a bit picky when it comes to buying things, but this desk completely won me over. It's not too big, but not too small either.

Sturdy wood. Beautiful wood grain. Well made and easy to assemble. Very pleased

All wood, looks good. Assembly was rather simple. Very attractive, looks way better than I thought it would.

I don't usually proactively review products unless I really hate them and it's worth letting people know not to make the same mistake... but this desk is THE EXCEPTION. Since the quarantine started, I broke 2 "cheap" (under $150 ) Amazon desks that couldn't stand being moved or used every day. I decided to give this one a try before investing in something over $300 and wow I am impressed. After reading the comments, I still had doubts if this was real wood and I can testify that it really is. A beautiful caramel polished wood. Nope, no MDF here. The top and the drawer come assembled and all you have to do is screw the legs and the bars that go in the middle of the legs in place. The instructions are also very easy to read through, with all parts numbered and draws that don't make you guess what goes where. The screws and other small parts also come organized in individual sections in a plastic bag along with an Allen key. I got it ready to work on in less than 30 minutes. It is sturdy, doesn't move an inch even if you tilt it. It fits my laptop and an extra monitor, with enough space for a lamp, mouse pad and mouse, keyboard, notebook and pens, and a coffee mug. The drawer is a nice touch and great to keep the things you need nearby without overcrowding the desktop space. I am even considering buying the bookshelf as well and make a proper office space out of it. Don't look any further, this is the desk you are looking for.
