Really cute, small desk for a small space.  From unpacking to set in place, it took me about 30 minutes.  Due to the angles of the under side support braces, it was a little tricky to get my hand in to attach the legs and I scraped a couple knuckles doing so. Ouch!  As others stated, the top drawers/shelf section just rests on the base.  I might get some small cleats to attach the 2 sections together, but so long as it's up against a wall like it is, being attached is not really necessary.  Plenty of drawer space for usual desk items and it fits my 13" laptop perfectly.  It's elegant and perfect for my needs. Oh, and the chair is from Wayfair too!
