This desk is very cheap and not solid at all. I gave it one star just because it is visibly nice to look at, however, the directions to assemble it is very confusing. My husband and I spent 3 hours and we still are not done. Some parts don't fit, some parts needed a drill to be used, and the entire desk is not even steady. I will post pictures once we are able to put it together. Hopefully we don't have to send it back because that will be more than 3 hours of my life I will never have back.
