This is a very lovely desk.  When completed it very much compliments the room.  It came  very well packed, no damage and the directions were very good.  I would go so far as to say I would purchase this item again.  The reason I gave this item 4 stars is when we completed putting it together (not difficult but time consuming) and went to put the drawers into the already completed desk they did not fit properly.  The directions were just not as clear as they could have been when it came to putting on the tracks for the draws and adjusting the tracks to make the draws fit properly.  After all was said and done we thought we would have to return the desk.  After a lot of "playing around" with it we finally figured it out.  After spending countless hours working on it to not be able to put the drawers in was really frustrating.  At the end it all turned out fine but was very time consuming and frustrating .  A bit more information would have a been helpful.
