Sauder Costa Executive Office Desk with Drawers & File Storage - Coffee Oak Finish - Perfect for Home Office, Study Room & Professional Workspace

Spent a lot of time trying to figure out which double pedestal desk I wanted and obviously settled on this one from Sauder because of the color and price. It was packaged very neatly and nothing was damaged which was GREAT. It comes in two boxes but the instructions were very clear and concise. It took me about 3-4 hours to put it together and at some steps it took my wife to help with turning it over as the desk altogether is about 180lbs.I wanted something with a dark wood grain color and it's hard to find considering nearly EVERY desk is cherry or black... but this specific color called Coffee Oak is trademarked by Sauder, which you can see on their website. The unique color and design reminded of me old German wood housing and furniture so I loved it right away. The texture is not shiny but is dull which was also a must for me, which I'm not sure if you can tell that by the picture or not. My last desk was an L shaped black desk that showed every greasy fingerprint and I didn't want to deal with that again.In the process of putting it together it got a couple scuffs, buuuuut this is manufactured wood... so it is to be expected that it scuffs up easier than real wood. But I think I could get a dark find pointed sharpie and color it in and you wouldn't know the difference because the grain in the design is black. Anyway, for the price this serves my needs and I'm really happy with it.EDIT (1/19/2020): I came back to add that after using this even more that it's MUCH hardier than I previous gave it credit for. I've run my chair into it several times and slid the keyboard and other things across the surface and it still looks great! Honestly I like this more than when I first bought it.
