I had all of my pieces. The correct amount and all were labeled properly. I felt towards the end they couldve put the steps in the end in a better order because at one point we couldnt fit in the  boards properly without having to undo the last step. 1 of my boards came scratched and the other was broken alittle in the corner but luckily they were hidden pieces. Overall it went okay took my boyfriend and I about an 1hr 15mins. The desk seems pretty durable and it has weight limitations at 25pounds according to the instructions.
