Ok, overall I’m very happy with the desk. My husband put it together and it took him about 3 hours. Yes, 3 hours! He was raging towards the end because he thought he put it together wrong and needed to start over but realized he had been on the right track and I kinda helped him at the end. It’s great for my teenage boys who share a room and needed a desk for school work and gaming. This is big enough for both. It’s sturdy and very nice looking despite their extremely messy room. I’m not giving 5 stars because it was a pain to build and the directions were VERY vague! Also, the corner where the pieces meet are not flush and I we tightened, retightened, adjusted, etc but couldn’t get them flush so it’s kind of sloppy looking. Like I said, overall I’m happy with the finished product and it seems like it will last awhile.
