The desk itself is amazing. It feels really sturdy, and there's plenty of workspace. I also love the cord management, it makes everything look so much neater and more organized. The colors are great and everything came in perfect. HOWEVER, this definitely lost a star because it is a beast to put together. My boyfriend helped me with it, and it was a true test of our relationship. Bring your patience, your understanding, and your forgiveness because this took us almost 3 hours to put together (between two people!!). If you'd like to see how you and your significant other work together, order this desk and put it together after a long work day. It is tedious, and there are a lot of parts and you'll be exhausted. If you make it through without a fight and with a finished desk, it's a true accomplishment, in my opinion.
