Overall the desk turned out great and I dont regret my purchase. Most of it was easy to assemble, but the reason Im docking it is because of some of the directions that DID give me issues:
1. There were many pre/drilled holes that were incorrect, so I had to make new s myself by hammering the screw to get the hole started.
2. There were MANY errors with the directions for the drawer rollers. I had to take out all the screws I put in and put them in a new place on the drawer roller to get the drawer and keyboard tray to work Had I left them as the directions said, I wouldnt have been able to even get them on the tracks, AND they wouldnt have shut all the way due to the screws getting in the way even though I screwed them in as much as possible. I was able to finally get the keyboard tray so that it does not stick out, but as you can see from my picture, the drawer still sticks out. I dont feel like taking out ALL of those screws and moving them AGAIN to be able to make the drawer close all the way because its not worth the pain, but I definitely find it annoying!
I had a missing part (bottom of drawer) so I contacted the company and they quickly sent me the part for free. The desk is sturdy and I was impressed with the customer service with the missing part, but I found the incorrect directions and pre/drilled holes incredibly infuriating.
sturdy desk, incorrect drawer roller directions
