The desk is nice and works well.  Took off a star because the top was damaged and unfortunately it was not discovered until after the table was put together that it had a dime sized dent in the top that is very noticeable since it down to the "wood" and the paint is chipped and gone.  The table top was placed from the box to a soft blanket to protect the top during the assembly process.  This was something that happened either prior to shipping or during shipping.  The table was fairly easy to put together, good instructions and works well for purposes intended.
