We bought the desk(with the hatch) for our home office but was greatly disappointed. First, the product came one week later than was scheduled, one part came broken and after assembly, some parts such as the doors to came off since the screws wouldn't support the weight. I gave the desk 2 stars because of the good look of the desk. My suggestion, spend little more money and get a solid and durable desk. Don't waste your money or time on this.
