Zinc Finish 66 inch Top - GORGEOUS!I bought this top to put on top of 2 cabinets I already have to create a desk. I didn't know what to expect based on the pic, but the Standard Work Surface Top that I received has a beautiful finish, grey metal with a sort of darker grey sponge-like paint finish on top - fits well into a modern/urban style setting. I wanted something with a little depth and flair and this has it. I fell in love instantly when I unpacked it.
My only suggestion to the designers would be to put the screws that fix the metal onto the wood on the inside edge of the top, instead of the bottom edge. The metal wraps around the top and sides and is fixed with screws at the bottom edges of the sides.
I had to add some felt bumpers to the left and right sides' bottom edges, in between the screws, so the bottom doesn't scratch my cabinets. If your cabinet's top is smaller than 19 " deep, you won't have an issue.
Highly recommended, especially if you get it on sale :)

A sharp workstation for Me!I bought the 66" black top. It works great and I love it! No issues at all. My file cabinets were 6" too short so my contractor made me a beautiful topless table that he set over the file cabinets and set the topper on the table frame and legs.

Great quality, perfect match to switch things upReconfigured my office set after 10+ years and needed a smaller work top to support a corner desktop. Perfect match, and I know the quality is top notch. My office set has supported my career providing timeless, stylish and functional furnishings to organize all things work and family.

Great worktopGreat desktop for filing cabinets I bought a few years back. Perfect fit. Simple and effective. I bought the largest size for plenty of workspace. It is not especially deep but still plenty of room to work comfortably on a laptop or use as a writing desk.

Great customer Service, but...Item is perfect, just what I needed. Only complaint was shipping. Original order was made during a sale, I was told it would take about 2 months to get the item....COVID times. I finally received shipping notice then a day or so later I received notice the item had been cancelled a refund issued. When I called customer service I was told shipper probably recieved a damaged package and that was why order was handled that way. Had to reorder and wait and 10 weeks before item finally arrived. Customer Service was excellent and they even gave me a refund so I would get the sale price on the reorder. Appreciated all the effort, frustrated it was so hard to get the item in a timely manner. Unfortunately this item does not appear to be a in stock item.

Handy WFH updateMy Ballard's corner desktop didn't work in my new space, so I bought this one to replace it. It fit perfectly with two full filing cabinets below, and allows me plenty of room for my chair. I'm really happy with how much work surface this new top provides.

We work from home a lot, so I bought this top to create a second desk for a 2-person office we'll have in our new house. We bought the first one about eight years ago. The wear and tear on the first has been minimal, so we felt good about making this purchase. The nice thing about this particular office furniture is how adaptable it is. We added a printer cabinet as well and are waiting for the 3-drawer hutch to arrive to give height and a place to put a small TV. That gives us room for all our supplies, files, equipment and workspace.

Very PleasedBeautiful! Using it as a desktop. Had a glass topper made locally to protect the surface. Underside has a lip on it. Mine is sitting on a double drawer file cabinet and a 4 drawer cabinet. The lip is a great feature to keep the work top from sliding. Well please with my purchase
