First, the few negatives - this desk takes a while to put together and while all the parts are well made and it’s not difficult, it does very much take some time. Worse, while the parts were all bagged and labeled, on my example at least, some of the parts were not in the bags that corresponded to the part labels in the instructions. They were there, just not where they should have been for easiest assembly. Also, once assembled there is a LOT of packaging materials to dispose of, both cardboard and styrofoam, which makes a mess when cutting or breaking up to bag and dispose of. This desk is not unique in this regard, but it’s something to consider.Having said that, the positives far outweig the negatives. The main table surface was not only pre-drilled with all the proper holes, many of the holes have plastic inserts so there is no risk of over-tightening a screw and stripping the threads out of the MDF panels. Once assembled, the desk is very solid and stable and has plenty of surface area for work or play. The main CPU self is plenty large enough for my mid-tower MSI Z590-based gaming PC to sit on, elevated by several inches from the floor (and away from carpet dust, static electricity and pet hair), with plenty of volume above the case for top-mounted case fans to provide good airflow. The side-mounted hooks are good for headphones, extension USB cables for controllers and accessory devices, etc. Finally, the main desk surface is solid, smooth and looks good in a contemporary way. It is thick and sturdy enough for my metal monitor post-mount to clamp to and hold my 32” 1440p monitor with complete stability, and to secure my flight simulator control yoke to clamp onto over the keyboard tray firmly and solidly.All in all, a very good desk at a very good price.
