The desk assembled easily/quickly and all of the parts fit together! The drawer glides are nice and sturdy.
4 Stars Because:
--The packaging could/should have been better. The back of the desk top is damaged but since I had to unpackage the entire box to discover this, repackaging would have been a challenge and return shipping would have been nearly impossible AND since it's not going to be noticed I'm not going to bother with returning it.
--Two other pieces were also damaged in shipping but they are also can't be seen and will not impact the functionality of the desk.
--White "plugs" are provided to fill the exterior screw holes. The fit poorly and I was shorted two plugs. I bought plugs from the hardware store and painted them. The plugs all fit differently so I sanded them down so that they all fit the same.
--The back cover for the desk did not fit--it was too long. I had to sand it down to fit.
--The instructions are pretty easy, it's all pictures BUT the print is a bit hard to read so I enlarged the images on my copier.
--The paint/finish will probably scratch easily but I am hoping that it will just give it a "weathered" shabby chic look.
