it's actually so cute once put together, perfect size for a vanity/desk. ALTHOUGH a lot of the reviews are mixed bc I think some people luck out but others for some reason have trouble setting it up like myself. I followed all instructions well easy to assemble but then on the very last step.. I took two days to figure it out, but still leaving me with a small gap. The screws for some reason just will NOT click. BF attempted bc he saw how frustrated I was feel lol and he still couldn't get it to work, then I slept on it & tried again the next day... little progress but at this point the gap is showing on the backside of the desk that will be against the wall.. so im taking the L and hiding it, no one will notice. But yeah... def doesn't take 20mins to assemble like how some people mentioned. Maybe mine is faulty idk

It is a crummy 40 dollar desk that does its job well enough. It can hold my sewing machine, plant, and cat without falling apart so it works.

Cheap junk

Wood started chipping off , top of table also started bubbling with minimal use. Bolts didn’t go in correct without it stripping off more wood and table top was uneven and didn’t go in all the way. White coating also chips off easily. Overall wobbly and not stable.
