I had high hopes for this desk! Adorable, perfect small size, beautiful color. Well, with any painted piece you run the risk of a less than perfect finish. This didnt prove any different unfortunately. It arrived with many scuffs and areas you could tell were touched up, or the attempt was made to touch it up. I really would love to send it back, but will be keeping it because its too much of a pain to repackage and start the process. Im going to see if I can find a paint color to match, or a cleaningpolishing agent to hide some of the smearsscuffs. Also replacing the knobs with brass, personal preference only. The knobs were acceptable. 3 stars for a cute, solid, affordable piece. And for the built in USB cable! The finish itself is what is quite lacking. Perhaps a stained piece would have been a better choice here.
