the packaging was great, no damaged parts were received
I purchased this desk a while back and should've made a review earlier but I wanted to write this review because this product deserves it.First of all, the delivery was fast thanks to Amazon Prime! the packaging was great, no damaged parts were received. The instructions are very easy to follow and I was able to put it together in about 45 minutes. I did it alone and it was only a challenge to assemble the hutch to desk and lift off the floor, mainly because I was scared it would break, but it didn't. I use a desktop and a laptop for gaming and even though I could've bought a longer desk without the hutch, I really like this desk so I went for it. I have to admit, I am glad I bought this desk.To accommodate my desktop screen and laptop I did not installed one of the middle shelves on the hutch (I will upload pictures in a few days).The material feels very strong, and I love how the upper panel where you monitor stands is supported by the metal support tubes that you see on the picture.The design is great, all the parts were sent, none missing, and all the pre-drilling was done perfect which made the assembly so much easier as every part lined up the way it was design to do. Plus I could get it in this white color which I wanted as well.Pictures to come soon...

Very pretty clean & nice.
built for my daughter, came with 2 left pieces but i fixed it myself instead of asking for replacement part. spacious useful, daughter likes it, only thing she didn't like was the bottom corners hurt when she stubs her toes on them. (i was asked to add rubber bumpers to the lower edges.HINT** drawers and cabinet door slam loudly, use a hot glue gun and add beads at closing locations to act as bumpers. made it much quieter.

It was not too bad, and all of the pieces were there
Built it in about 3 hours alone. It was not too bad, and all of the pieces were there. With my small drill I had no problem.I recommend laying out and counting and organizing all of the screws since there are three small ones that look almost identical, but are slightly different which confused me before I realized.It feels much flimsier than I was expecting for $200Lower quality than Ikea and I'm a bit disappointed. I feel as though the shelves cannot hold much weight and I don't want to risk them, and the keyboard tray feels like it is going to just fall off so I am not putting weight on it. I do really like how this desk looks, and I really wanted a computer shelf, with a hutch above and I got exactly what I wanted. The tabletop space is nice, and I feel like I have a lot of room. I do overall like the desk, but it has only been a day and I am very worried specifically about the keyboard tray.

Such a disappointment
I'm so upset about this purchase. I have bought thousands of dollars worth of merchandise on amazon and have not been disappointed until now. I purchased this desk for my son so that we can assemble Christmas Eve and he can wake up to it Christmas day. The wooden pins that the desk came with are too long, therefore causing the wood pieces (parts of the desk) to break. There are now 7 large cracks scattered on the desk. I have attached a few examples. One of the wooden boards that attaches at the bottom is too short leaving a large gap between two pieces that are supposed to be glued together. I am trying to contact the seller directly and am unable to do so. I cannot send this item back. It is really heavy and already glued together. At this point, I am going out to see if I can find a new desk so I can have my gift tomorrow morning. I am looking for a refund for the one I received. All I can do is throw it out at this point or have the seller pick it up assembled. Overall, the desk itself was beautiful and I can't express how upset I am that this gift was ruined.

Great sturdy desk for the money, a little bit of confusion putting together
Now that it's put together, I love the desk. I'd been wanting one with a keyboard tray but also needed one that had a short enough width to fit in the area I had available. This one fit the mark! I do wish there was a bit more room in the two drawers, but I was used to one with a huge single drawer that took up the length of the desk, so it might just take getting used to.The problems I had with putting it together seemed to be some mislabeling of pieces and "picture only" assembly instructions. Those drive me nuts - I don't feel like the pictures always translate correctly. I eventually figured everything out, but made one mistake because of mislabeling - the back piece with the hole in it, meant for the open space on the bottom, was switched to the part with the drawers. If I would have sat and thought about it I probably could have corrected my mistake, but by the time I realized it was too late. I just drilled a hole on the other side, but it wasn't a pretty hole! Luckily the computer placed in there blocks the view of it.It took me about 4-5 hours to put it together by myself - they do recommend two people because at the end you have to pick up the top half and place it on top of the bottom half - a struggle, but I managed it. It would definitely have been smarter to wait until I had someone else to help since it is heavy, but I'm an impatient person.Assembly aside, I really like the desk. It looks nice and fits two monitors, it does fit my printer up on top though it hangs off a bit. They keyboard tray is great, and I can still fit my knees under the desk without putting the chair too low. It seems very sturdy (compared to my old one which wobbled) and I like how the little feet at the bottom prevent the wood bottom of the desk from sitting directly on my floor.I'd recommend this desk but would caution you to make sure the pieces are labeled correctly (don't put the back with the hole in the spot where the drawer guides are!) and to at least have another person help when you get to the putting the top half onto the bottom (I'm lucky I didn't hurt myself!)

Just terrible
Everything came in very fast but up to this point I realized how shabby it actually was. It didn't take too long to work on but the base and the top of it wouldn't fit together, I had to remove the back panel just so it would sit on the pegs. Horrible waste of time, energy and money

Amazing desk better then i was hoping takes 2 people ...
Amazing desk better then i was hoping takes 2 people to build or 1 person if you have ALOT of free time. My only problem is with the instructions seems to be missing a few pages took us a bit longer to figure out but happy with the end result.

although it was recommended to use two people to assemble
although it was recommended to use two people to assemble, I did it by myself with no problems. It functions well for the price.

It’s a nice looking desk with lots of storage
It’s a nice looking desk with lots of storage, perfect for a small room. I built it by myself and it took about 3 hours.
