Easy to put together and just like the picture showed. I have lots of missing paint chips on the edge of the top but I will live with it since I really need the desk for my work from home. I put it to the test with my two monitors, laptop and keyboard and the top doesnt lock firmly into position when i work with it up. It is also very heavy to lift up into position. So I dont use it standing as much as I would like. I still would buy it again.
