I purchased two of these for my kids' bedrooms. The boxes were delivered intact and promptly. The material is your typical MDF, and the construction is what you'd expect. Assembly is not a one-person job, and I discovered that I had the 'new' standard for stud spacing while doing it. One desk had a cracked panel, but this manufacturer quickly replaced the item without any hassle.   Over the past couple of years, the desks have held up fine to an average amount of wear. They neither increase nor decrease the profile that a standard desk would have. They do lock you into a handful of room configuration once mounted, and placing them at standard height might create some issues with blocking outlets. Overall, I'm satisfied with the product but would probably shop around before purchasing again.
