I didnt expect amazing quality from this desk for the price. (I paid $80 for it on prime day, a $10 savings) but I was a little surprised once it was all set up how nice it actually is for that price.
Its a great looking desk. But I will not the rustic brown is much more rustic than I expected from the photos. Once fully set up it still looks good and Im happy with my purchase. Its also bigger than I expected, even though the listing clearly lists the dimensions.
Set up was super easy. I had no issues with any of the hardware or tools. The Allen wrench was tedious, but got the job done. I could have used an electric screw driver with appropriate bit, but didnt really need it. The instructions are pretty clear, but there are no words..just pictures. Some of the pieces its easy to accidentally put the wrong direction if youre not paying close enough attention.
The only issue I had with set up was my own fault. like mentioned above, pay attention to where the screw holes for the shelves are before attaching all of the pieces. I had the one piece on the shelf side flipped around and had to unscrew 6 screws to flip it to put the back piece on the top shelf.
I wasnt sure if I wanted the shelves on the right or the left side and was happy to find out that its put together exactly the same way no matter which direction its facing (except the very last step which was a little support bar on the back corner)
I removed one star because I did have an issue with one of the long bars that supports the desk top. The end piece you screw into wasnt welded properly and wasnt holding itself up, which means the entire desk top wouldnt be properly supported on that side. I had my dad weld it for me rather than waiting on a replacement piece.
The desk seems pretty sturdy on my carpeted floor. I was able to lean on it and pull myself off the ground after assembly and it barely moved. I dont notice any wobbling while typing or playing games.
Overall Im very happy with my purchase so far and I would recommend this desk!
Good deal, great price.
