Bought this new desk for my new apartment. The instructions on how to put it together were confusing as there are parts that, if you put them together in the wrong direction, will have to be taken apart and put back together again. Had to do this a few times as the instructions were so lousy. Also, when tightening the screws to put the top shelf on, I apparently overtightened them, thus causing the cheap, particle board to split apart THREE times before I even turned the thing over and realized that I had ruined it. There's no way to fix it either as it's cheap material and the "wood" just split all over the place. I have already cut my finger on the split wood on the top. And my computer is too large to fit on one of the bottom shelves so bear in mind, if you have anything larger than a standard pc, you will have an issue with it fitting. Overall, not satisfied with this and wouldn't pay more than $80 for this. Not worth it.
