The desk itself is 5 stars.  I love it, it’s beautiful and good quality.  I purchased it on sale, with free shipping.  It came in one box with a lot of styrofoam, which is a negative.  But the reason for the lesser stars is because two pieces were damaged, we had problems with some of the hardware (barrel but/bolt), holes were misaligned, and the cam bolts did not stop when being screwed in, so they were too short for the cam locks and had to be adjusted.  I would recommend using a power screwdriver since there are so many screws.
