I love this desk. It’s very sturdy and high quality. It took some time to put together but it was worth it. My only negative was that the final step - screwing together the desk portion to the shelf portion, was next to impossible. I’m 99% sure the holes on the desk part weren’t perfectly lined up to the holes in the shelf part. But I was able to get one screw all the way in and the other sort of in. The desk is so substantial, though, that I have no concerns about it.
