The desk came well packaged and was easy to install. Took about 30 minutes. Minor issues are: holes in horizontal frame pieces are too deep and dowel pins may not protrude (I glued them in place to avoid the issue); some (6 of 12) of the inserts on the desk frame cracked the MDF when installed but still seemed sturdy; screws in the drawer tracks split the wood and one of the tracks had fallen completely off. I use some wood glue to to reinstall the drawer track screws and reinforce the others. Overall the desk is sturdy and seems of decent quality for the price. It had a spacious surface, the drawers are of a good depth and the finish is good but corners seem like they may chip easily. It is being used as a vanity and my wife is happy with it.
