Pretty easy set up that goes faster with a second person, but not impossible without them. The motor is fairly quiet, adjusts to a decent height, and works smoothly. Not a huge fan of the desk not being just 1 solid color (the section where the keyboard sits is a different color - it looks so awkward!) but other than that it has a clean look. I rated it 45 stars because during set up, one of the screws wasn’t glued in which makes me question the integrity of the others over time.
