Good quality desk, the finish is not as distressed as it looks in the picture but is still attractive and very dark.  Simple design.  No assembly required out of the box; it just unfolds and is ready to go.  I'm military and move frequently.  Although, having a folding desk is nice there is no way to lock the pull out tray in place and so it must be stored separately when folded.  Also the top part of the desks rests on 2 wooden pegs on the top of the legs.  I'm not sure if this design is optimal; if you accidentally lift the top the legs may move or if you bump the legs I'm afraid they may break.  Time will tell.  Otherwise happy with the purchase.
