Very well constructed with high quality laminate wood sections (moisture sealed, thick, solid). The desk weighs approximately 65 pounds. The electric mechanism is adjustable and you have the option of setting three different "pre sets" for height. The instructions warn that the electric motor cannot be overdriven for more than a couple of minutes - which makes sense as it could burn it out.  Manual / instructions were easy to understand. While the desk can be put together by one person, two of us completed the assembly in just under an hour. My one potential concern is the "axel" that connects the motor to the left side is a bit more thin than i would prefer.
