It's a very nice sturdy piece. But....it was a bit challenging to piece together.  The parts labeled did not match up with the labels on the instructions.  And a hand screwdriver was tough....the battery operated drill/screwdriver was much better!  And it seemed dirty.  All sorts of dust or residue came out of the hollow pieces.  The screws were either extra oily or just extra dirty.  The packaging itself was great, nothing damaged.  I really like the desk.
