The desk is a solid piece of equipment, once you manage to put it together! For the price you pay for it, there should definitely be more parts of it connected already for you. You end up screwing, gluing and connectinf about 20 pieces. The cupboard door on mine is also at a strange angle on the hinge and doesn't open properly without lifting it. I'm happy with it now that it's together, but simply due to the effort of putting it together for the price you pay and the fact that it's not perfectly put together (not my fault, the hinge is not operational properly) I wouldn't buy this desk again.
