This is a FANTASTIC desk. The legs and frame are metal (nice surprise) and it's quite sturdy. The drawer takes a few minutes to assemble but is quite large and rides on good-quality metal slides. Our box had a few random parts that belonged with some other piece of furniture, and it was missing 4 dowels for the drawer installation. I just happened to have 4 from another project, so didn't have to call the manufacturer. Once complete, it's an awesome desk at a ridiculously-good price.
