The desk itself is nice. Seems sturdy and was easy for my husband to put together. Less than an hour. HOWEVER this desk smells so so terrible. I've never experienced a smell like this. Its been together for 2 weeks now and about a week ago had to take it out of the spare bedroom and move to the garage. The room still smells like it! Windows and fan going as well. Not sure what to do with it at this point as I haven't had a response to my question I left about the chemicals used. I'm scared to bring it back into my house at this point as it will eventually go in our bedroom and I'm almost 8 months pregnant. I didnt see any other complaints of smell when I purchased otherwise I probably wouldn't have purchased this.
