The desk is great - it feels solid even through it isn't solid wood - and has the benefit of being able to be made in two different ways, depending on which way around you want the desk/storage. The construction instructions are quite easy to follow - but it definitely requires two people! It unfortunately came with a small scratch on the top of the work surface and we couldn't get the doors to align properly, but it is practical for what I need compared to other corner desks I have seen.
