It took over 3 hours to build with two people. There we’re screws that would not tighten and a board we had to manually cut because it was too long. There were also spots on some pieces that already looked chipped.  The file drawer is very tricky and we are still trying to figure out how to put it in the desk. It is stuck at halfway.  You get what you pay for. It’s cheaper quality but still looks nice.  It is an upgrade to what we had and I do look forward to actually using it.
