The assembly wasnt too difficult, although the instructions were a bit confusing at times (didnt indicate what sides should face up, diagrams were tiny...) and they didnt include any spare parts, so if you lose a screw, youre out of luck. It comes completely disassembled...it took me about 2 hours to put together, and at times I needed someone to help me hold parts while I screwed them in.
All that being said, I really like the finished product. Its much nicer looking in person and it seems pretty solid. The wood is just slightly darker in real life, but I actually like it better than whats shown online. There were a few small indentations and imperfections on the top piece of the desk, but nothing major to worry about.
When you open the drawer, its actually split into two drawers: a smaller one that takes up about 1/3 of the width, and a medium sized one that takes up 2/3 the width. I really like that because it helps me keep things organized. Its a fairly short drawer though, so nothing too tall will fit inside. The space to hide cables is also a great feature. Theres plenty of room back there, and I could probably even keep some other things that I dont necessarily need to access on a regular basis.
Overall, Id recommend it, just be prepared to spend a while assembling it. If youre not good at putting things together, Id suggest going with something else.
much better in person!
