I'm a sales rep with a home office. I saw this desk online and really liked the design. Once my wife and I assembled the desk I was not disappointed. I looks very good! People think we spent more than we did for this desk. 

The main piece of advice is to have a drill and someone with you to assemble it. We read all of the reviews and they stated it would take a while, but we didn't think it would for us! YES IT IS TRUE!!! It takes a while to assemble, but would seem to be impossible alone. It took us 6.5 hours. Also before you start to assemble it make sure you have all of the parts. I think it makes it so much easier to identify where everything is before you start if you just have an open area and spread eveything out.

Other than that, I've had the desk for a month now and I'm very satisfied! We've gotten many compliments on it!!!
