Exceptional value! It was easy to assemble. I put it together myself in under an hour. Everything was packaged neatly and labelled. Instructions were easy to understand. The desk is sturdy, especially considering the price. I have a large, heavy wide-screen monitor that fits just fine. The tabletop is two pieces, as others have mentioned, but it doesn't bother me. Raising and lowering is super smooth and very quiet. It DOES require an electrical outlet. I thought that could have been made more clear. The cord is plenty long to reach the power strip on the floor, even in the highest position. The plug is quite large. Plan for it to take up space on a power strip or attach directly to the wall. I found that annoying. Other than that, I'm very pleased!
