Looks nice and is just the right size, not too big. I can't say assemble was easy. I didn't do it but I saw my very handy husband lay out all the pieces and go at it. It took quite a bit of time, all afternoon.  The file drawer is difficult to pull open but I think it will loosen up with use.  Like the top drawer, you can use it as a drawer for supplies or slide it up to use with printer.
