This desk is nice looking once it's put together but it doesn't take substantially more time than I thought. Maybe I didn't read the previous reviews closely, but this is not a couple of step deal - and some instrumental pieces were missing. :-(  The company delivered them within a couple of days after I contacted them so it wasn't a real problem except that my daughter was disappointed to have to wait. She loved the finished product!  

Pros: good value, cute and good for a small space
Cons: takes a bit of time to assemble
