Let me start by saying this desk is not for the faint of heart. It took my fiancé and I FOUR HOURS to construct, comes with 24 pieces not including the multiple sets of hardware, and has 29 steps to put it together. Also, the construction guide is just pictures, no words. Even after all of the work, I love the desk! The wood top is a bit darker than in the online photos but it is perfect for working from home during quarantine and is large enough to work on multiple projects at once. If you can stomach the construction, buy it! You will definitely need someone to help you out it together.
