I really can't believe this desk has such high ratings. It was tough to assemble (the holes are *just* misaligned enough to make it hard to cram together). The individual panels are terrible quality -- many were flaking or have since flaked. And once it's put together, the whole thing wobbles when you try to write on it or open/close a drawer. It's so nice looking -- the exact style I wanted -- but the quality is terrible.
