This desk is a BEAST! Be forewarned, it does require quite a lot of assembly. All tools and hardware were present, including an extra of each hardware and an actual small screwdriver. With the hubby's help and his electric screw driver we were able to get through it cleanly, but together it still took approximately an hour. After assembly, it is a gorgeous piece and surprisingly very sturdy. Plenty of room for my extra wide Sceptre monitor and smaller Acer monitor on the raised shelf (probably could fit another small monitor with some overhang if I wanted to squeeze them in). This was definitely an upgrade from my small glass gaming desk I've had for over a decade. The lights, I can't say are that great but are fairly cheap to replace so that wasn't an issue for me. Didn't really get it for the lights but they are actually pretty nice with an app to let you pick any color of the rainbow, plus several different themed color change settings that fade, blink or strobe with up to three shades. I just can't manage to keep the lights on. Plugs work amazing and keep cords off the floor. Baskets drawers are cloth and have no guides, so if you have young ones or pets, expect those to be easily knocked off the shelves. Otherwise, perfect and exactly what I expected, thanks to reading other reviews.
