The desk is great and easy to assemble! I had to take it apart, and although the top was heavy, I'm glad for the easy to put together enforcements at the bottom. My only complaint is that the bottom of the drawers are constantly falling out, and it is very easy to lose things underneath the drawers, such as papers, and hard to get out. It also is not a desk for those who use their area for more than writing--but that doesn't take away from anything, just a rec. from me! Overall, I love this desk; I've had it for 2 years and it still looks great, and is very sturdy. Worth the money!
