Estimated assembly time: 60min
Actual assembly time: 3.5hrs
Granted, I dont know how the profit margins work for these sorts of desks but stickers indicating top/bottom and inside/outside would have been really helpful. Boards 3, 5, and 7 did not match their appearance in the instructions and required multiple attempts to determine best orientation.
And at the end of it all the last piece is still not flush with frame.
Granted, its not bad desk. The metal frame makes it extra sturdy but stress of assembly coupled with the aftermarket additions Ive needed to make to get things to be even does drop the stars.
Wont be even/flush
