I was slightly disappointed with every purchase I made on this site in some way, and this is no exception.  Two Chief complaints - and 1 is my fault.  The bottom legs are clearly very narrow, and this desk is extremely heavy - 170 pounds - building this with only one person sucked the soul out of me. I cried multiple times. Dont try this alone.  2 - the top portion of the desk is some weird material, I dont know what it is, so you cant write on the desk, its not a smooth surface and it comes out like youre writing on rocks. But again, I just spent 8 hours building this thing, and its 170 pounds - how am i supposed to return it now?
