The desk itself is beautiful and sturdy. The desk did not come with the full hardware listed on the instruction directions so i had to go buy my own. When i finally put it together i noticed that there was a defected board that makes it so the outside of the desk shows ugly holes. It looks like it could have been installed backwards but we made sure that we did it correctly. I contacted wayfair and will be waiting for the replacement parts but im very bummed we will have to take it apart and wait for the correct board to be delivered.  The last photo shows how the desk SHOULD be on both sides.
