Overall, I love everything about this desk. It works perfectly in my home office, and the style really helped me to build the rest of the room around it. My husband was able to put it together in less than an hour, so that part was easy. Although the box that it came in was very sturdy, and there was extra packaging to prevent breaking, there was a small scratch or two on the top of the desk whenever we first opened it up. It’s not a huge deal, and I doubt anyone will ever notice it, but it did make me a tiny bit sad when I noticed it. Other than that, I love it!
