Do not be fooled the picture I uploaded is not the desk coming assembled that way. That was me half way done. But I posted that pic to tell you guys how EASY the assembly was on this. Now, I’m kinda dumb when it comes to these things and my husband wasn’t home to help so I saw everything came in so many pieces and I was worried I would have to hire someone to come out to assemble it for me but the assembly guide was super easy to follow and very helpful. It took me about an hour to assemble. It’s easy to assemble but it’s time consuming. I love the look of it and it’s perfect. It did come damaged on a back corner, but depends on the lighting in your home that will make the color of the desk appear different. That’s why I uploaded multiple random pics for you guys to get an idea what it looks like.
