This is a pretty decent desk, and I'm sure it will last a long time. It does lack some quality in certain areas. The drawer bottoms are made of a very thin wood material. Some of the pre-drilled holes where off and I had to re-drill them to put everything together properly. The most important thing impacting my comment, is this desk come in pieces. Literally nothing is assembled. It took me 6-7 hours to put this thing together! I was shocked how some of the simple items weren't put together from the factory. There are a lot of parts that use a compressed wood. But the compressed wood is very dense, so it gives a good, solid feel and a lot of weight. This desk will last for a long time. The appearance is OK, just like the pictures basically. So, if you like building desks this is the desk for you!
