This is a nice desk for the price, about what I expected. Will definitely need to put a desk protector pad on it though, some minor scratches already just from handling it during assembly (and we were very careful). Love the Heather Gray color. When I unpacked the pieces, there was one piece broken in half. I contacted Wayfair directly on Monday and the piece arrived on Friday so I was happy with that fast service. I'm only giving this a 4 because it was very difficult to assemble. The directions were inadequate, pictures only. It is absolutely a 2 person job. I consider myself a fairly capable woman and I would have given up on this without my husbands help.
