The biggest drawer (with the lock) is super flimsy. It took me a lot of effort to put the desk together (even with a drill) and the top drawer collapsed as soon as I put things in it. I was able to fix it, but I was very frustrated with the quality of this desk. It was more expensive than another desk that I had considered purchasing, and I throughly believe the other desk would have been way more sturdy. The only items I had put in the drawer were my check book and some papers! Unimpressed, but it will do for a cheap desk for a college student.
