Well, mixed feelings with this purchase.
First, desk is heavy as soon as you try to pick up either of both boxes it comes in. But was packed well, and all items were secure.
Second, there are a lot of pieces to this desk to assemble. Desk took approximately 2 and half hours to put together. But all pieces have decent finish and look nice. Metal square tubing is soild with nice textured feel and matte finish. Wood peices are soild with better than most laminate.
Third, NOT ALL peices of wood sections/shelves are PRE-DRILLED Accurately. Meaning you wont be able to install All sections! Which also means during assembly you will drive yourself insane trying to figure out what section you may have assembled wrong steps before. Only to realize the holes dont line up because it wasnt drilled correctly during the manufacturing process!
Forth, its STILL heavy, remember, so moving it is impossible with one person. But there is also a weak point when trying to lift it. At the point where the flat top of the desk meets the square tower. If one person lifts too hard opposite side of the tower, the desk will flex making it fragile and heavy...
So, as long as you can lift it, assemble and accept that the one small shelf on the bottom will NEVER be secure without expert drilling. As well as never moving it, ever. This is the desk for you! But its sturdy, looks nice and a decent price... ♂️♂️
