Seems solid and sturdy. It did take some time to put together, and occasionally the instructions made me scratch my head till I figured them out, but for the most part it was easy. I thought whoever wrote the instructions had quite a sense of humor, too. A nice change from those written in barely decipherable English! The cam locks aren't the best, two of them broke so I had to order new ones online, since my local hardware stores didn't carry them. Luckily I got the correct size and the new ones worked. There are also some dings right on the top part of the desk, unfortunately right where I can see them where I rest my arms when typing. But overall I am pleased with this desk and quite happy to have it in my office.
