A beautiful desk!  It looks gorgeous in my husband's office, it was easy to assemble, and my husband was immediately comfortable sitting down at his computer.  Unfortunately it did arrive with one end open, the hardware on the ground, and two small gouges at one end of the tabletop surface.  Manufacturer needs to do a much better job of packing!  Gouges are easily fixed with some sanding.  We would buy this desk again despite shipping damages.  I would love one for myself!!
