We got this for a small room we rent out in our house; the tenant has a lot of tchotchkes and collectibles and needed more space. This desk really maximizes space and installation was not complicated. One of the nuts was missing, so one of the bolts could not screw in - definitely a manufacturing issue - but the desk is still fine and secure without it, thankfully (but I docked a star because it wasn't complete). All in all a great choice if you need a desk in a small space with some shelves.
