Win some lose some
After reading the June 8 2007 review I was worried about the quality of packaging. When this desk arrived at my front door I saw that my fears were justified. The package was compact leaving little room for protective material like bubble wrap. Careless handling might have caused some damage. Fortunately my desk arrived in perfect condition. The legs desk top and keyboard tray were all wrapped to protect against scratches.
This is one of the few products not made in China. It was made in Thailand.
The wrench needed to attach the legs was included and I used my Phillips screwdriver to screw on the front knob. The magnets are too powerful making it difficult to pull open the keyboard compartment. I solved that problem by placing four pieces of transparent packing tape over the magnets. All told including the taping assembly took me around 40 minutes.
The legs tray and desk top are all made of beautifully finished solid hardwood with a reddish blonde color. The tray slides in and out smoothly. The style is a bit plain and unadorned but the quality and functionality are excellent. I'm very pleased with this purchase especially because the modest price of $130 included free shipping.
