This and identical Elite are my second shells. I love them both. Fair warning, they will look like a scratched and scuffed disaster. Just use a damp cloth and some elbow grease. Even what looked like a huge gouge in the top of my new one came out. It's just marks. The packaging was excellent. Nice and sturdy desks. I actually put them together by myself. Supposed to take two people, with good reason, but it's doable.
