For starters, I’d like to say that this desk is huge. The wood is high quality. It does come in 3 planks instead of 1 big slab, which leads to my qualm with the wood; the pieces don’t (at least for me) sit completely flush against each other, but that could’ve been an error on my end during the building process. It’s really not that big of an issue, though. The desk is also very easy to put together. My only other qualm is that it requires you to have a power drill to make pilot holes and drill the power box to the under side of the table and to drill the support pieces to the middle part of the desk. So now the power box is just hanging under the table which is not a very polished look. But other than these things, I am very happy with the size and quality of the desk, especially when compared with similar models that are double or triple the price. Fast and easy shipping. I say it’s worth it, just make sure you have & know how to use a drill.
