I got this for my girlfriend for Christmas and along with speedy delivery, this thing is a beaut! I set it up myself (until the end) though the directions recommend two people to go at this together. Directions were really straight-forward and It really wasn't difficult to set up, it was just a bit time consuming. There were a few kinks with the pieces they shipped, one mini dowel rod on the front, top left corner - a support for the table - was broken and was no longer connected to the frame..I'm going to have to go back in with a long screw I guess for that. The other thing was with the tight corners and teeny screws, without a mini screwdriver, it took a lot of 45 degree turns to get the job done. The top was one of the last things to be put on which is pretty awkward and definitely the only place a second person is needed - to hold it upright while you screw the teeny screws from the other side.
Aside from all that, this thing looks really nice. It's a great size but it's not bulky like most drafting tables. The storage under the table top is awesome, and having the flat table to the side is just what my girlfriend needed to for her laptop for her references. She usually would wheel up a set of crappy plastic drawers with her laptop on it when she used her other drafting table. This just has it all, great look, lots of storage, sturdy and a good size without being bulky.... I love it, she LOOOVES it.... I HIGHLY recommend!

Unacceptable level of damage, unreturnable due to poor packaging.
Absolutely unacceptable. Item arrived severely damaged and unreturnable due to terrible packaging. I do not have time to find a new box for this item, pay for return shipping, and deal with it so I have a pile of parts and pieces I will either have to fix or throw away.I bought this from Amazon Warehouse. The amount and type of damage was not accurately disclosed. Amazon Warehouse claimed, "Cosmetic damage (Less than 10%) on the sides of the item. Cosmetic damage (Less than 5% ) on the bottom of the item. Item has no cracks or dents. Item will come in original packaging. Packaging will be damaged." This is not what I received and it is apparent to me that they knew it was damaged far worse before they shipped it. I am handy and can fix most things like this, but the writing surface itself has a large crack stretching over 40% of its length and it is warped badly. The corner of the writing surface and the pencil rest were smashed/crushed where it is most visible and most likely to be damaged again by use (exposed and people tend to cut corners when moving around things) and it is dented where packing straps were apparently applied too tightly. The left leg assembly is critical as it has no other support (unlike the side with the drawer box). This side arrived with completely crushed and broken dowels glued in. Most of the item has scratches and dents and the finish is compromised or completely missing in some areas. The support stick to raise the writing surface is cheap and misaligned with the dividers from the stowage place for the stick and the storage space. When attempting to salvage the item I noted that many of the parts do not snug up tightly so there are exposed spaces and the writing surface is warped and unevenly set with the top of the drawer box surface. The packaging was pathetic. There is absolutely no way this item could have arrived undamaged even if it left the warehouse in perfect condition. Amazon won't refund unless I return and I can't return because of the packaging issues. Cheap. Save your money unless you are REALLY handy with professional tools and tons of time and want to take a chance on receiving a split working surface.Update: Amazon finally agreed to refund my purchase price after I uploaded more photos of the shoddy quality and condition upon arrival.

A bit of a headache, but totally worth it!

Very pretty when its finally together. I am very much looking forward to using this desk. I recommend getting the stool that is commonly purchased with this item. My kitchen table chairs are not tall enough to use with this. Overall, easy to put together, but frustrating because it uses cam-bolts and an allen wrench (I hate both those things). The cam bolts are easily broken if you twist too hard. The base, under the adjustable table, was a bit warped and required some pounding to get it into place. It is solid though, doesn't shake like many other products that use similar hardware. What I like: the writing space is big, I can have a couple different things going on if I am using 8x11 paper. The side table allows room for a pen cup and calligraphy box as well as paints and cups. Good amount of storage and shelves, but the drawers are too short to hold a ruler.. so in the pen cup it goes. Would buy again even with the assembly issues.

I was looking for a desk to do watercolor painting. I liked the color and the funtionality of the desk so ordered this one. My husband and I put it together yesterday. Although the instructions indicate it will take 30 minutes, it took us close to 2 hours. I highly recommend that two people do this together. It's not too complicated as everything is labeled but you will have to clearly follow the instruction booklet. Once it was put together, it was easy to move. It not too heavy and easy for me to position myself. It's very flattering piece of furniture. Most importantly, there is a lot of great space to paint and do projects. Also what's wonderful about this desk is the top lifts to do work at an angle. There is storage on the top large enough for paintings. The right side gives more space on top to place things and there are 2 drawers and 2 open shelves. Overall, it's sturdy, funtional and a great value for this desk.
