After reading the few reviews, I was skeptical about purchasing this desk. I wanted a longer desk with a drawer, so this was the best fit for my needs. The hardware needs to be tightened correctly. I does move a tad from side to side, but overall appears to be pretty darn study and the color is nice. It was just assembled yesterday and as of right now, I am very happy with my purchase. I'm almost done with my home office remodel, thanks to Wayfair!
