It’s a beautiful desk- but it was absolutely awful to put together and three pieces came broken or damaged (the box was busted in shipping). I was able to make it work since my dad is a carpenter and can salvage anything- but Even then I almost returned this item.
 
Also beware the actual size of the item. I wanted a small desk- but the table height is that of a night stand in a bedroom.

And the load is only 22 pounds on the table top and 13 pounds on each shelf. So, It will not hold 10 standard books in a shelf since that will be too heavy! Just something to keep in mind )
