Difficult to build. The directions left the piece wobbly and adding braces as an almost final step. You could hear the particle board cracking as things were being put into place. Also, directions were wrong in places. There were no holes where there should have been and holes shown on the directions that, if they had been there, would have prevented the piece from coming together. In the end, very poor quality. If it were for me and not a play desk for my child, I'd have returned it.
