Hats off to wood working for producing an exceptionally easy-to-assemble desk.  Each piece is marked so you know which part the instructions are referencing and...wait for it...the instructions have words!!  I have become so accustomed to pictogram instructions, free of words and suitable for an assembler anywhere in the world.  It really was a treat to have such clear assembly instructions.  When assembled, this little desk is sturdy and perfect for the bedroom in which we placed it.  Highly recommended.
