I bought this desk based on all the reviews. people said how great of a desk it was and all this but let me tell you, it took two of us over 8 hours to put the desk together (one of us is an engineer). also, i have had the desk for 2 days now and already the top is peeling away. i am seriously pissed off at the quality of this desk. i wish i could show you the pictures of how crappy this desk is compared to the display picture they have. cons: the finishing already peeling off, very hard to put together.
