Four stars because this was an absolute nightmare to put together because of the motor rod. The instructions are in broken English (sample directions for the motor rod include "Keep relaxation" - huh?). The photos are SO small - you can't see anything. Taking a photo and blowing it up on my phone did nothing. The motor rod (or sync rod) needs to be lined up just so because there are groves on each end, and after actual, literal HOURS I got them to align. In addition to the tools that come with this you will need Advil, and some sort of meditation app so you can take a break and calm yourself down. The desk itself is solid - and now that I figured it out, it works great.
