I purchased this desk a year ago and it has certainly improved the clutter situation in my studio. One downside is when fully loaded the caster screws cannot take the weight when the unit is rolled forward and back. In fact the rubber wheels can't take it. I had the rubber of one wheel tear in half and another the screws pulled out. Mind you, I am not wheeling this thing around the room. I have merely pulled it forward a few feet to change the configuration a couple of times. I would recommend drilling holes through the base and using bolts to attach the casters. I am sure that would solve the problem. Of course it wouldn't solve the problem of the cheap casters. Those you could upgrade as well. All in all a good item. I wish I thought about the caster mount sooner because I am not going to disassemble my whole studio now and the desk is so heavy loaded up. Definitely use bolts. The extra effort will be worth it.

Worth It!

I debated this purchase due to some of the reviews that mentioned spacing/alignment issues concerning the rack holes. Ultimately though, I needed a recording desk with space and I went with it. As it turns out, the desk was actually better than I thought it would be. In fact, the only problem I have with it is the particle board but at that price what can you expect. The assembly was easier than expected - about 1.5 to 2 hours. As long as I'm able to use it for 5 or more years I'll feel good about the purchase.

AWESOME!!!!

I recently purchased this desk, and could not be happier!!! I had been in the market for a desk for awhile and this one had my name written all over it! This thing is VERY large!!!It spans about 6 feet wide, which can accomodate most keyboards easily. I also like the fact that there is so much rack space.This beast was also suprisingly easy to put together. I would highly recommend buying one of these to anyone putting together a home studio!!!

Can't even compare to others...

This is a great desk if you purchase it for the right reasons. I used to own another desk before this one, which didn't have all the features this one has. This desk has all the necessary compartments a musician needs to organize his/her equipment. Looks great/great value. I researched other sites before checking it out on guitarcenter.com and you cannot beat this price. If you love to make music but hate the clutter, this is the desk for you. Thanks Guitar Center!!
