This desk is PERFECT for me. My husband put it together for me fairly quickly. He said that the directions are mostly easy to follow until you get to step 28, then it gets a little less clear. That being said, he was still able to get it all finished and hooked up. This thing is SOLID. The 2 side drawers roll out smoothly, the cabinet shuts nicely, etc. The middle drawer catches ever so slightly when pulled out, but that's not a big deal. I'm going to have my husband check it to see if it's an install problem or not. The cord management works well for keeping cords hidden where my two cord-addicted cats can't chew on them.

Do note that this is shipped in ONE BOX. Fedex kept delaying the delivery until I threatened to pull Birch Lane in to back me up.
