Grey Desk - Bampton

Simply not possible to put a bedside table together given the parts and screws provided. Having told Laura James this they suggested turning a part round which made no difference and have not offered any other solution. Ordered a desk at the same time which had half the pieces missing. We had to wait for a second delivery. So badly made, will never order again. They also left the package in full street view leaning against our front door claiming to have left it in a safe space. We have a basement entrance that they could have been used which is out of view and dry. The second part of the order was delivered to the wrong house completely.

Easy to construct. Looks really good and Solid when put together. Quality.

Fantastic product, and fantastic customer service. Thank you.

Quite a big desk with plenty of storage space, perfect for my home office.

Wasn’t too difficult to put together and looks good once it’s built.

I thought the colour was slightly more beige than it looks in the photos which isn’t a big issue for me but something to be aware of.

On time, great product and great value.

Good, sturdy solid desk, great quality, good price and easy to build. Delivered on time. Already ordering matching furniture.

Lovely colours and goes with my room perfectly, but of a pain to build but it was worth it in the end :)

Slightly more flat pack than I'd realised, it takes a lot of putting together but it's sturdier than others I've had so It's worth the extra effort.

The Brampton is a lovely looking desk that sits perfectly in my bedroom. It has the 3-drawers I was looking for together with the cupboard with 3 storage shelves. The main carcus is not the usual 5/8" thick MDF board (typically found elsewhere) but is an impressive 2" thick so adds to the overall solidity of the desk. The oak coloured top and light grey unit is also a great colour combination.

In terms of improvements, I would suggest that Laura James addresses the obvious lack of precision in the manufacturing process; for example the dowels that connect 2 pieces together are meant to fit nice and tightly however they only fit loosely into the pre-drilled holes which affects the rigidity of the unit. In addition, the 3-draw Chester has insufficient pre-drilled holes and as such, is wobbly. In order to overcome the issue, I used x 4 small right-angle brackets which I fitted to the bottom base of the unit which made all the difference. They was also delivery issues so had to wait an extra couple of weeks to get my desk however (notwithstanding the above flaws), it was worth the wait and I'm happy with my purchase overall...
