The box came pretty beat up and damaged and I was a bit worried about parts being damaged as well. There was small stuff and 1 small dent in the wood, but nothing that was noticeable from the angle the table is setup. It took about an hour to put together. It's heavy duty and my husband now has more room for gaming and enjoys more room this desk . I also love that my PC tower no longer takes desk room. It has its own spot. 

I'm a little disappointed with the color. The picture shows a more rustic/wood burned looking oak, but mine was a light colored oak so that was a bummer, but the desk does what it's intended to do. Shipping was also fast. Got my package in roughly a weeks time.
