I'm so glad I purchased this desk. It arrived within 6 days and it looks more expensive than it is. Putting it together was a bit confusing at times, but nothing that some careful reading couldn't solve. The instructions say 2 people are needed to build it, but I was able to build it by myself in a couple of hours. The only thing I can think of that could be bothersome is the drawer sliders have this smelly, sticky lubricant on them. But if you wipe them off before putting the desk together, it's not a problem. The smell also goes away after a while. The desk top is a good size and the drawers are large enough to fit legal sized sized paper. The drawers open about 2/3 of the way. Over all, a great addition to my apartment. Most mid-century furniture is way more expensive, so for the price, it's a great buy! I recommend this desk.
