Instructions were fairly clear.  Some welds on the vertical legs to the cross members were so far out of square that I was worried I wouldn't be able to attach the top (minus one star).  See attached photo.  However, we were just able to pull the horizontal supports over far enough to get it to work.  Once the desk was together I really did like it.  Light weight but sturdy.  Just wide enough for dual 27" monitors.  I still have some wires to rerun and organize and a nasty wall paper border to get rid of, but otherwise the room is coming together nicely.
