Received the first delivery chipped but customer service was great and sent me out another in 2 days and that one was fine..  It comes down to who delivers.   But the quality of the desk to me is very good.  Even if its engineered or whatever its called its solid.  My husband put it together, it did take him a good 2 maybe 3 hrs to do so.  The drawers slide in and out easily, the color is perfect.   I went to home goods and got a single chair since I didn't want a bulky desk chair.
