I use this desk for my home office.  It looks great, like a much more expensive desk.  The Harvest Cherry really looks nice.  Like others have said, putting it together does take several hours.  However, if you lay everything out, take your time, look at the pictures several times, you won't have problems actually assembling it.  I bought it together with the lateral file and 72 inch bookcase.  Really makes a nice home office.
