Ordered this desk and when all was said and done, it was perfect.  It took some time to put together but nothing very difficult.  The directions were mostly clear except for the front face for the drawers.  If you put them on incorrectly, the drawers are lower than needed and won't close.  Easy fix though - just unscrew the knob handle on the drawer, rotate and screw back on drawer front.  They fit perfectly and slide in nicely.  Good stable design and looks great in the room.  Great as a writing desk or as a makeup station.
