Just finished the assembly process taking a better part of an evening to do it. I wasn't expecting that. Assembly is fairly straight-forward, not unlike assembling many Ikea items. I only had a few things I had to re-do because I wasn't paying close attention to the details. Overall, the quality of the table is ok, relative to the price. This desk was on the expensive side, likely because of the walnut veneered draws. They are decent quality being about 1/2" thick all the way around. I think the bottom panel was a bit thinner, but should allow for heavier items to be put inside without bulging out over time. Mechanically, the desk raises and lowers just fine. It's pretty quiet and smooth when operating. The feet are adjustable which is nice if you have uneven floors. It also comes with nice cable management accessories to hide your wires, which is a nice touch. Comes with everything you need to assemble including a few allen wrenches and a philips screw driver. Overall, it reminds me of better grade Ikea level furniture.
