This desk was a very smart purchase. I am very pleased. It arrived ahead of time in perfect condition: not a scratch, not a hole mis-drilled. Hardware was complete without even so much as a screw missing. I have assembled desks before and the directions were pretty good. It required just a little interpretation but not much. The desk is very solid and the extra shelf in the cabinet was a bonus I was not expecting. I purchased the Cappiccino and  the color is perfect for my den. A very good value for, I felt, a very good price. This was my first purchase from Joss and Main. It will not be my last.
