Desk arrived undamaged. I was doubtful since it was glass, but it was unscathed. It was easy to put together. The glass is alot thicker than I expected. It's a great place to keep the laptop, Ipad, and other electronics. The bottom shelf can be installed on either side so that was a bonus. The glass makes it blend into the wall and it doesn't look like it takes up space in a room already filled with furniture.
