For its price, this desk is pretty decent. Its exactly what I needed and the dimensions are perfect. The color matches the photos as well and it feels sturdy enough. However, I did have some issues putting it together. The instructions are clear about what you need to do and I didn't have any problem
s with this desk until the I started screwing in the 2nd piece of wood panel (the last and final part of this desk). The screw holes were slightly misaligned on the first side I was working on but it was manageable as I just had to tilt my screw slightly to properly tighten it in. But once I got working on the other side, thats when the issue really started. The holes were so misaligned on this side that even if i tilted my screws as far to the side as I could, it was still not fitting. I was so frustrated I gave up for a while thinking I might have to forgo the predrilled hole and just drill it into the wood. But then I realized the screws provided were not your standard type but the hexagon type and my electric drill didn't have that option. So drilling straight into the wood was now out of the question. I went back an hour later to see if I would be able to somehow get this together and after almost 30 minutes, I managed to force the screws far enough to the side that it fit into the holes. I pretty much had to bend some parts of the metal to make it work. After putting the desk together, it did look nice. There was no visible damaged parts where I had to force in the screws and it held together tightly. But I did have another issue and that it was a bit wobbly. I figured out it was one of my legs that was slightly too short (about 2cm) but it was nothing a little felt sticker couldn't fix. Overall, I had to problem solve + use a whole lot of muscle to put this desk together. -Was it troublesome and annoying? Yes. -Does it have flaws in the wood surface? Yes, one or two small scratches. -Was it completely leveled? No, slight wobble as noted above but fixable. -Did it match what I was looking for? Yes, it was pretty much exactly what I thought it would look like ; size and color wise. -How was the pricing for the product? Okay. Final thoughts: I could get a much higher quality, better constructed desk somewhere else with the similar sizing and color. However, it wouldn't be cheap. I'm not looking to spend 100's of dollars for a casual computer desk. The issues I had with this desk can be corrected with a bit of DIY and for the price I paid, I'm actually okay with it.
