This is one of the few particle-board pieces of furniture I would ever recommend. It's solid as a rock, which at 175 lbs it should be! Secured by both cambolts and glued dowels, this is going to last a long time yet can be disassembled in sections if it must later be moved. Way higher quality than most computer furniture from the mass marketers (Staples, Office Max, et. al.), the fit and finish of the laminate and the individual pieces (all 452 of them!) is excellent. Takes a bit of effort and time to assemble, but with very clear, well-written instructions.  

Pros: high quality fit and finish, solid construction.
Cons: Takes some time and care to assemble (only a con if you don't enjoy that sort of thing!).
