Overall, I am very happy with this purchase. I am a young female, and I managed to build this on my own (it did take me about 6 hours though). The desk feels sturdy, and I love the storage space. I ordered the white & oak combination version, and I did notice several, light stains/marks/chips on the white pieces, which is why I am giving it 4 stars instead of 5. Before purchasing, I saw several reviews that mentioned the cubby doors don't line up perfectly, and when I was building, it first appeared as though my doors wouldn't line up either. HOWEVER, after I adjusted the screws on the door hinges (after the doors were attached), they lined up perfectly!
