Delivery was very quick. Desk did arrive in box dusty. It’s was not damaged. It looks to be very sturdy. The problem that I had was that manual tools didn’t work to put it together. The instructions insist on not using electric tools but it’s impossible to use manual ones because the holes in the metal aren’t big enough for the screws. The steel is lightweight and it probably won’t hold much weight but for the purpose I got it for it works. I rated a 3 because assembly is essential and it’s not for the faint of heart or the unhandy.
