I guess you get what you pay for. I am debating returning this item, but it fits very well in my space, and returns are exhausting. I don't expect this desk to last beyond 2 years or so - so if you're looking for a permanent option, avoid this desk. It arrived with chips on each corner and laminate peeling off of each edge. It doesn't look new. It is high gloss white - so from far away it is okay, but sitting at the desk - you can totally see the damage. It scratches very easily also. 

Putting it together - is a nightmare !!! There is one piece (read other reviews) that is next to impossible to screw on. I had a Handy Professional here and it took over 2 hours to assemble the desk because of that one screw.
