Bought this for my husbands home office to accommodate his stand/up desk platform and a printer. The color of the desk is true to vendor pictures. Packaging was very well padded and organized neatly. Came with easy/to/decipher instructions. It specifically tells you right at the beginning to face the main 3 support bars with the (4) holes to the back of the desk so that the crossbar pieces can attach correctly, which is very thoughtful for those hasty builders who dont realize their pieces are bolted on backwards from the get/go. The wood is heavily laminated and well/wrapped particle board but it has the grooves like real wood which is impressive for the price of the desk. No one is going to question its authenticity with stuff covering it but I would advise using coasters to prevent warping. Overall, the build is well/fitting, albeit there was a tiny mm gap where the corner top piece meets the sides, but I think thats a matter of adjusting the screws on the frame. As the instructions warn, dont screw the bolts in too tightly as they will bend the tubing fairly easily. I am very pleased with the quality for the price and the simplified look. Good buy!
