The desk looks great, just like the picture. It is definitely a 2-person job to put the desk and cabinet together. I did the leg work while my sister read off the instructions. It takes 2 heads to figure some of the steps out. One step actually has the wrong screw size listed but you'll figure it out because the previous step is correct. The directions to attach the desk top boards on each side have to use identical screws, so it's obviously a mis-print. Also, one of the desk top boards was missing the inset screw so I called the number on the instructions and they were extremely helpful and got right back to me. They quickly sent a replacement screw. I was super impressed with their customer service. I am very happy with the purchase.
