Beautiful, quality made, very sturdy with its steel components. The wood is super nice. Delivery was fast and it does come in 2 boxes. Packaging is perfect, also. I was so pleased that the manufacturer thought of everything for this desk. The parts are packaged and numbered, screw driver comes with it, and was easy to follow. I would say it will take a couple hours to put together if you do it all by hand, which is recommended. The end result is a standing desk you will fall in love with. The drawers are such a bonus. It glides smoothly and quietly up and down. Great item Wayfair!!!
