This is a nice, sturdy desk, however of all the furniture i've purchased recently this was probably the most difficult to assemble.  The pre-drilled holes didn't match the instructions in several places.  If you follow the instructions there are some of the screw holes that are very difficult to reach and the drawer on the desk we got was very difficult to get in its track.

It is also worth cautioning that this desk is VERY heavy.  If you need to get it up stairs or move it very far take that into consideration.  We did have to request a second desk as the top to the first desk was crushed in the original shipping process.  While there was quite a bit of damage to the second box, there was no actual damage to the contents.

I will say the desk is very sturdy and looks great once assembled.

Pros: Very sturdy and looks nice when assembled.
Cons: Heavy and difficult to move post delivery.  Assembly instructions aren't 100% accurate and assembly is fairly difficult.
