Mom needed a new desk for her new apartment and chose this simple design. Item packaging was good, no damage to any parts when item was unboxed. Instructions were fair. Some pictures/descriptions were not 100% clear. Specifically the installation of the drawer glides. That took the longest of the whole installation as we installed, removed, reinstalled differently a few times before getting them in the correct arrangement. This is where the instructions were not good.
In the end the desk is sturdy and the drawers work! The back of the desk has a finished board that is meant to not only support the desk, keeping it square, but also blocks the sight of the back of the drawers. This finished board is high and when I installed a monitor arm I had to drill a hole near the edge corner of the desktop to accommodate for the arm mounting hardware. The desktop material drilled cleanly and monitor arm mount ended up looking nice and clean.
