I missed the fact that it is NOT real wood but it’s cheap particle board. It took me about a week of assembly since I did it after work. I also had to wait for my husband to get back in town to flip it. Pre-drilled holes were off and there are some gaps between the doors. From afar, it looks like a nice desk. I will say that I’m somewhat of a snob about furniture. I tend to buy quality furniture and this is not it. Worst purchase besides the “looks good” but is so uncomfortable chair I bought. I was so frustrated with the assembly that I almost gave up, threw it outside and burned it. Then I remembered, you can’t burn particle board because it emits toxic gas. I HATE THIS DESK. However, if you’re looking for a cheap PIA to assemble desk that weighs a ton and you’ll never move it because it will fall apart. This is the desk for you!
