This desk came really well packaged and even had corner protectors on the wood. The finish on the wood looks good. The instructions were easy to follow and the build went smooth. The motor moves the desk up and down without issue and isn't too loud. There are a couple small annoyances. The controls can only be on the left side of the desk. The headphone hangers aren't really that convenient where they are placed, I will probably move one to the front of the desk from the side. For computer use, the split design of the top doesn't bother me, but I could see if someone was going to be using this to write on, it would create some issues. Overall, it isn't a bad desk, but it could use a couple small improvements.
