It's exactly as advertised... manufactured wood with veneer, but it looks good and it is sturdy. For the first time I can remember, the parts kit included glue and also had a few spare parts. It fits perfectly in the spot I have for it and seems like it will last a very long time. The backing of the cubbies has room to run wires and so I didn't need to modify it in any way.

The keyboard drawer is a normal slide out, but I didn't use it because I have a humanscale keyboard drawer that is a lot better... but that keyboard drawer mounted fine because the desk is sturdy enough.

Pros: lots of desk surface area. The cubbies also have plenty of room for running wires and the laptops fit nicely on top of the cubbies. It is built very sturdy and reversable (I have mine reversed from this one)
Cons: no cons for me. It is exactly what I wanted.
