The concept of this desk is great but it lacks in execution. The materials that were chosen are cheap and the packaging was insufficient. This resulted in several issues moisture susceptibility, chips, scratches, and warping. The particle board interior is failing in the corners of two of the 3 desktop pieces. And the piece without particle board damage has visible scratches on the laminate. There are even dents on the metal pieces. If it had arrived unscathed, it would at a minimum look better. It’s certainly sturdy enough and practical. But it’s not the caliber of desk I was hoping for.
