It looks pretty decent once put together--put it is very cheaply made. If you are ok with that--go for it! The white "wood" is a cheesy laminate that arrived with a couple of scuffs from the shipping process. Unfortunately, I needed this desk for work right away, so I wasn't about to try and go through the hassle of exchanging...only to maybe encounter the same issue again! The faux "wood" portion does look very nice, but again, very cheaply made. The nicest part about it is the legs! Not sure if I could recommend this desk at this high of a price point.....
