Delivery was quick and all pieces were accounted for. There were a couple of nicks on pieces and the bottom drawer is slightly cracked, but otherwise didn't make too much of a difference. The desk took a bit of time to put together, but my son and I did in about three hours. It does off gas quite a bit. So, if you have time to open it and let it air out before assembling, do so. If not, keep a window open and the door to the room it is in open as well. It's pretty strong. Overall, very happy with the way it looks and functions.
