As always the instructions for assembly were just a series of small drawings so it was a guessing games at times on what the next step was and how to do it. There was a lack of pilot holes for aligning the wood and the brackets which was surprising. That said the desk went together without issue. I like the ability to switch the returns to fit your needs. The keyboard tray is the biggest negative. It is small and is positioned at the very end of the desk which, when using two monitors, isn’t ideal. I wasn’t sure I was going to use it but after trying it found it really didn’t work for me so was no longer an option. Since this is marketed as a gaming desk, I guess they didn’t put a lot of thought into a keyboard tray. I am using it for business and find it works well for me even without using the tray. There is enough room for files and papers while still fitting into my small space.
