I love the desk! It took my husband and I about 5 hours to put together but we took lots of breaks and accidentally put two pieces on backwards so had to redo it. There are no words in the directions just pictures so be sure to pay attention to the pictures! The right side (with the hutch) is sturdy enough but any time I nudge that side of the desk the hutch wobbles a bit - it won’t fall down because it’s reinforced to the metal but I’d like it to be a bit more sturdy.
