While it did take me almost two hours to put together, the finished product was worth the effort. This desk is quite sturdy and attractive. Additionally both drawers glide smoothly and seat fully, which I have often found not to be the case on a lot of others. They keyboard drawer also works well and has just enough tension on it to not slide back in on its own, which means it is actually usable. Finally, the instruction manual was actually totally correct and fairly easy to follow (which is almost unheard of), though I do wish the pictures were just a bit larger. It also includes a screwdriver and Allen wrench suitable for performing the setup, though I'd still advise having an electric driver on hand (with both socket and Philips head bits). All parts were included and they also included at least one extra of each screw and bolt, which is convenient in case you lose or drop one.Very pleased!
