This desk is nice. Configurable shelves, adjustable feet. Reasonably light and very sturdy. When I saw the construction up close I was wary - it really doesn't seem like there is much to it, but this thing doesn't budge! One feature I really liked about it is how the wooden panels all have nylon anchors on the underside that the machine screws bite cleanly into. This is exactly how a locknut works and provided the anchors are firmly seated in the panels, should prove quite resistant to lateral force and vibration loosening the screws.
People spoke of badly chipped corners... mine came shipped with these hard plastic covers on the corners and still one corner had the laminate ever so lightly peeled up. I used contact cement and now you'd never know there was any damage. Some things just aren't worth fussing over. Though I would be mad if my $150 desk was actually missing material.
That said, the panels are actually really nice! The quality of the printing on the laminate is quite rich and it has a wonderful, textured finish with what seems to be a fairly thick, durable semi-gloss sheen to it. It's probably about as high quality as laminated particleboard gets! I like it!
The quality of the powder-coating is similarly fine and shows no obvious flaws. Some types of powder coating seem to chip off easily... maybe poor preparation of the metal beneath? I dunno, but any time I've seen this type of powder coat, it's held up well. It's not the thin type that chips easily. I have a little walmart laptop stand and the difference between the hardness of the powder-coat on that is night and day from this desk.
Putting it together was easy. They do give you the tools you need. Every type of screw comes packed in a lettered bag and the instructions are clear which ones go where and how it all goes together. You get one extra of each type of screw.
Though I had to laugh at how they wanted you to put the top on. They thought you should lay the top flat on the ground and attach the frame to it with everything upside down. Maybe there's a good reason for it, but all I could think was "I'm not flipping that thing over!" I guess it all comes down to which you prefer... squeezing underneath or attempting to pick the whole thing up and flip it a full 180 on it's end.
All in all, a very nice, simple desk. I'm very happy with it. That said, for what it is, $155 is just a little steep. $20 less than that would make it really good value compared to similar offerings. But hey, if this has what you want, the size is good, and you like the look, I'd say it's still worth it!

Great for the price!
I read a lot of reviews before purchasing this desk. Some were helpful, and I came away with the impression that building the desk would be very difficult. It wasn’t too challenging actually, but I do have some tips.1. The first thing that I’d like to comment on is the packaging. It was the best packaged large item that I’ve seen. All of the corners were well protected with 4 layers of padding. I don’t see how any of the corners could be damaged in transit, if the carriers are moderately careful with it. Any defects would have to have occurred before shipping. I added a couple pictures of the corner padding.2. Everything needed for assembly was included. Each package of screws had an extra. It came with a screwdriver and an Allen wrench. If you’re looking at purchasing this item, I recommend having your own screwdriver and Allen wrench, but it was not needed in my case.3. The instructions are complicated, but understandable. Make sure to read ALL of the words before starting. Check to make sure no parts are missing before getting started. Refer back to the list of parts to make sure you’re always working with the correct parts on each page. With an extra measure of care and thoughtfulness in building it, you shouldn’t run into any issues. I did find it helpful to partially screw in all of the screws on a page of the instructions before committing to tightening. This helped me to ensure I had everything properly aligned, and it was especially helpful when attaching the legs to the desk.3. The desk itself is sturdy, looks great, and is very functional. I like having the utility of the shelves (you don’t have to install both, if you want some room for taller items on the bottom shelf).Overall, I’m very pleased with this purchase, and I’ll likely buy another piece of furniture if this brand again.
