I like the contemporary styling of this drafting table. The table itself is solidly constructed and lightweight enough to move around. I also like the drawers, the various tool/paint holders, and the glass top which can be backlighted for tracing. As for putting it together, I needed initial help to get the frame in place (it's a bit like juggling balls without getting someone to brace a leg or two), but all the rest is a one-person operation. That said, it's tricky in a few places (e.g. the braces that hold the side tool-holder and snapping plastic parts together). Some of the part numbers of the packaged nuts, screws, bolts were switched around by accident. Also, there are extra hole drillings that are not used for this model, so that may be confusing to some as well. Nevertheless, it gets my thumbs up and I actually enjoyed constructing it.

I purchased this table to replace one that wobbled and would not keep it's angle for drawing. I chose this one specifically because of the unusually great amount of drawing tool storage. Putting it together was a bit of a nightmare. The illustration in the directions was unclear to say the least. Directions were confusing. One hole was not drilled enough and had to be fixed...and another was not in the correct spot. I had to run out to purchase metal drill bits[...]AFTER all of that once I had it put together it seems fabulous as expected. I would recommend this to a friend ONLY if they were handy enough to overcome the obstacles ....and would tell them to have metal drill bits on hand. It's a shame really that Studio Designs came up with such an otherwise great product and dropped the ball on the design of the directions....and the quality control of the pre-drilled holes.

I know some people have posted that they had a tough time putting the table together but perhaps the makers have taken heed and updated the instructions. I found the "how to" booklet pretty straight forward and didn't have issues in the construction. They even included all the tools to complete the project. It is the perfect size for my room, it is durable and beautiful to boot. I am extremely pleased with my new work station and highly recommend it!

Your service was excellent. The table is great and very comfortable to work on. Do not expect to but this table together in one hour. But, when you get it together is worth the effort.I would recommend Hayneedle an this craft table to anyone.

I am a botanical illustrator and I absolutely love this. It has all the features I wanted - especially the glass top which means I can also use it as a light box! I love the drawer too, leaving it open a little, I can place all my pencils there and they no longer fall and get broken. Besides being very practical, it is also attractively designed - I may never leave my studio now!However, just one "con". I am not an engineer and it did take me many hours to assemble - if there was a wrong way to do something, you can be sure I tried that first.

I love the look of my craft station, so sleek and modern. Everything arrived in perfect condition, it only took about a half an hour to put together. Definitely read through the instructions carefully 1st as it is easy to place some parts upside down- had to start over after placing the center bar incorrectly, but all went smoothly after that. Plenty of storage for pen, pencils etc. I happily recommend this desk!
