Once assembled, this desk is sturdy and attractive, but there were several disappointing things with it’s manufacture: 
1) the screw holes were poorly done. In one leg it was too large for the screw to actually hold. My husband fixed with some Gorilla glue.
2) no assembly instructions. The booklet only included the directions for the hutch which wasn’t part of the model I bought. We figured it out, but directions would have been reaffirming.
3) a piece of the white veneer chipped off during assembly. Again, not the end of the world but disappointing for a brand-new desk in this price-range. 

Additionally, there is a bit of an odor (paint?) initially. That seems to be fading, but the first week it was strong and bothered me. 

Again, it looks great now and I don’t regret my purchase right now, but I was somewhat disappointed with the assembly.
