Desk arrived in two packages. I received the bottom of the desk pretty fast and the tabletop about a week and a half later. It was packed very well and nothing was scratched or broken. The desk took about an hour and a half to put together by myself. The only problem I ran across was that the holes were small where the back ledge goes. I drilled bigger holes myself and everything fit perfectly. Overall it’s a pretty nice desk. I didn’t get the one advertised as mine has a curve where the keyboard goes and the one in the picture is straight and has gold siding. I got the smallest one and it’s still pretty big in size. I’ll be able to do my work well on the desk.
