Assembly -
Took me a little over an hour to complete, but was pretty simple from a series of 3 exploded view panels in the instructions. It seemed to me that so long as you use the right screws or dowels, which are pretty clearly labeled in separate bags and noted in the instructions, it would be hard to put this desk together incorrectly or in more than one way. The instructions say that the only additional tool you need is a Phillips head screwdriver as a small hex key/allen wrench is included in one of the parts bags.
However, driving some of the screws into the base was made easier using our electric drill. You might also want to have a flathead screwdriver on hand for a certain step of the process, but I got by without one.
Other reviewers mention that holes were missing, but I did not find any. Most of the major part attachments were done with bolts, not screws, and pilot holes were predrilled for the joins that required screws (because screws generally actually bite into wood, so if you drilled a full hole they'd have nothing to grip onto.)
Usage -
The desk is quite spacious (again, I am using the 42 inch version) and feels pretty solid considering that it is adjustable in angle and it has two legs, not four. I personally like that it is designed with two legs, as that means that if I need to I can tilt it to the about 90 degree mark and take up less space when not in use. In this "folded" position having two legs also means that the table is very easy to carry between rooms as you can carry it by the uppermost crossbar. I haven't weighed the desk, but it feels like it's around 30-35 pounds, perhaps a little more.
If you plan on using the desk for technical drafting, there are no bumps or anything else that might interfere with the use of a T-square along the sides of the desk. I would advise against using the pencil bar at the front of the desk for aligning a sheet of paper horizontally with reliable accuracy, because the pencil bar does not sit at a perfect horizontal along its entire length when compared against my 42 inch T-square.
Angle adjustment: The desk is, again, stable when the adjustment knobs are just slightly snug and the table adjusts in angle easily enough but with enough friction that it doesn't seem like it will swing free if you have a little bit of weight on it during the adjustment. Perhaps it might have been nice to have the pins that sprung into the holes along the metal wheels. As it is the only real way to tell if you're absolutely in one of the angle holes is if the knobs spin down all the way. If you can't tell by the picture, those holes are what determine what angles the desk can be adjusted to with the most stability. You could probably tighten down the knobs halfway between those holes, but you might damage or dent the metal at that point (I haven't tried, and the angles available seem fine.)
Comment on height of the desk: I am 6 feet tall, and when the table angle is flat the desk is perhaps an inch or two below the height of my waistline. This means that for me it should be comfortable enough to use as a standing desk for the occasional project that requires that. The crossbars at the base of the desk serve as a sort of foot rest, which is nice.
Build quality -
The coloring of the wood stain seems even, though one or two corners look like they might have been made with darker wood or with a little extra stain (not very noticeable. All of the edges seem straight and well sanded. And, for the third time, the desk feels solid when I put some of my weight on it.
Overall -
I think I will very much enjoy using this desk for my Industrial Design projects as well as my personal projects. I have envied the desks on campus with their ample workspace, and now I have one of my own that looks very nice and didn't cost a fortune compared to the other options I've seen on Amazon and a nearby art store's website.
The product in its original/shelf box with a packing slip on it is what I received (another way of say there wasn't another shipping box it was packed in). It was pretty easy to take downstairs to my studio (if you have a carpeted staircase, it's even easier -- guide it with both hands and let gravity help you take it down, slide it across the carpet -- why strain yourself; it's the desk you're keeping, not the box :).
I opened the package and its contents carefully in case I needed it for a return (stuff happens!). I inspected the pieces as I took them out. The only thing that was a slight concern: the upper right corner looked like it met a brick wall a couple of times before it was put in the box (I read on another review of similar damage). Thankfully, that's something I can modify just fine with sand paper and stain; everything else was assembly-ready.
It took about two hours to put together, however, I'm meticulous on what I work on because I want it to last me a very long time, and I enjoyed putting the desk together. I made sure all parts were included before I started working by counting and checking them off with a pencil in the manual. The instructions are all visual (no step-by-step) over three pages, but that's up my learning alley. Afterward, it's very sturdy.
Suggestion: I custom cut a desk mat (Desktex Anti-Slip Polycarbonate Desk Protector, Embossed Surface, 29 x 59 Inches, Clear -- think a chair mat type of plastic, just a few layers thinner; easy to cut with tin snips like this: http://amzn.com/B000R8HSOG ) to protect the table top from all the art I'm going to be doing.
By the way, you don't have to use the holes provided to keep the table angle where you want it. Just make sure to tighten the side screws in to the U brackets enough. (Oh, the U parts stop making noise when you tighten the handles down, so you don't have to worry about hearing those when you work either.)
So here is my experience and some photos to help you decide. I hope you have a great experience and enjoy your new table once you've assembled it.

Although it looks great it is not that sturdy. It wobbles when I erase. That's pretty much my only complaint. It's a great size for first drafting table and in my small townhouse. I love it nonetheless and will purchase matching stool.
