Great med-small desk for work-from-home needs. Assembly was quick and easy with supplied parts correct and lined up as they should. They warn you not to over-tighten screws. I helped my husband a bit and we assembled in 10 min. It appeared to be a thick particle board with "wood" look laminate over all visible edges/surfaces. The metal supports are nice solid black and seemed reasonable thickness/quality for the price of this desk.
