Received today. It is beautiful and more than we expected. Solid wood, heavy, sturdy, no MDF that we can see. Bought this for my daughter after many months looking and waiting for a good deal, she did not want a "kids desk." This fits the bill perfectly, and will be a piece of furniture to keep for generations. Lots of space on the desk and shelves. Shelves are fixed, not adjustable, but that may speak to the solid wood nature of the product I think, and makes it look even better. Drawers are skinny, but as long as the depth of the desktop. Very happy we made this choice. The only reason not 5 stars, is that the legs and the desk top cutouts for bolts did not match up on two of the legs, but we will use wood screws to attach them instead of the hardware included.
