This desk is really nice. It is a bit of a pain to put together. The instructions use multiple names and tags for the same parts which gets really annoying. My husband and I took about 4 hours to put it together. Granted, we had a hockey game on so we were a little distracted, but it did take quite a while. That being said, it was worth it. The desk is super nice, sturdy, and the color is quite nice. The top is a bit darker and a little redder than it appears in the pictures. Not a light oak at all.    

Pros: style, color, construction, size
Cons: assembly
