To me, it seemed like a big problem... but it wasn't one to Mike. We needed a desk that wasn't falling apart for the school computers - and I had a dresser that had some broken drawers, that I wanted us to get rid of. Mike did a bit of rearranging of the drawers, to provide leg space. There are a couple of chairs that go in front - they are stacked at the side when not in use... And the 2 school computers fit right on top. It is a little taller than the desk was, but not by much.
