This is not a very high quality piece of furniture. Keeping in mind that it's pretty inexpensive the quality is very sub par. It's made primarily of laminated MDF and the desk top and bottom portion arrived tattered, chipped and bruised from transit. While this is an isolated incident for I can promise you this issue is happening on all of these desks. If the quality wasn't enough the assembly for this desk is a a bit of a nuisance. Thankfully the instructions are pretty straight forward however I had to drill 4 of my own holes because the operator/machining program creating the pre drilled holes for pegs and fasteners totally missed the mark. For the money this is a cheap solution to get the job done but certainly not a piece of furniture to boast about.
