I purchased this as an “open box” item so I want to note that. It came with many dents and scratches on the pieces, many of which are not very noticeable once assembled. Unfortunately the very top of the desk has 2 large scratches where the white laminate is torn so that is very noticeable. My husband assembled and said it took longer than he expected, with many small parts. I am happy with its function, the desk is very cute and for the price I’ll try to repair or hide the top section.
