The quality was exactly what I expected. The frame is sturdy and high quality. The shelves are still compressed particle board, but the fame lends the strength to make it feel like solid wood.

Has worked very well as a small desktop in my son's bedroom. Compact and great size for its purpose. Shelving adds the needed storage and space to allow some organization. Sturdy and durable so far!

Love this desk/shelf unit. In my haste, I didn't line up the holes correctly on the poles, so the shelves don't sit as you see in the picture, but I prefer the way I did the shelves anyway. I was not able to add the brace at the bottom of the table because of the way I did the poles so it is not as sturdy as it could be, but it's up against a wall, so it works. I have enough desk space and shelf space for my needs.

What is the space between shelves?
All the shelves are 1/2 in. (12.7 mm) thick. The top edge of the horizontal metal bars that support the desktop are 27 7/8 inches (72 cm) from the floor. The assembly instructions say to insert 1/2 inch (12.7 mm) in diameter spacers between this bar and the desktop. I did not use them, thus lowering my desktop by 1/2 inch (12.7 mm). I did this so that I had enough clearance between the desktop and the underside of the first upper shelf to be able to slide one of my 13 inch (33 cm) tall JBL unpowered bookshelf speakers under the first upper shelf (I use a small USB-connected Class D amplifier to drive my speakers which takes advantage of the Dolby 5.1 quality sound in a PC - which is considerably diminished in quality at the usual speaker jack on the back of a PC. My JBL bookshelf speakers are much taller than the usual run of cheesy, plastic, powered computer speakers which is one of the reasons I selected this desk and its generous clearances) . With the spacers installed as per the direction, there is 12 inches (30.4 cm) between the desktop and the underside of the first upper shelf. Then 1/2 inch (12.7 mm) of shelving. And finally 8 inches (20 cm) of clearance between the top surface of the first upper shelf and the underside of the topmost upper shelf. The top surface of the first lower shelf is, again with the spacers installed, is 12 1/2 inches (32 cm) below the underside of the desktop. Note that if you place something on the first upper shelf from the front, the horizontal support bar for the desktop limits an object's height to 11 inches (28 cm). If you place objects on the lower first upper shelf by going in form the side, then the full 12 1/2 inches (32 cm) clearance is available to you. The clearance between the first lower shelf and the bottom shelf is also 12 1/2 inches (32 cm). And, finally, there is 2 inches (51 mm) of clearance between the floor and the underside of the bottom shelf. Note also that you can assemble the shelves to your right or your left. If you like to drink beverages or snack while at your desk, I recommend covering the desktop with some sort of protective material. I suppose self-stick shelf paper would do. I used a big sheet of nylon-backed, 1/8 in, closed-cell Neoprene, wet-suit material, making my while desktop one giant mousepad [!]. I would like to add that the welded square-section steel-tube frame members that are assembled with beefy hex-head fasteners and the MDF shelving all add up to a desk that is significantly sturdier than the usual run of consumer-grade particle-board computer desks which are rated by the number of moves they will survive - usually no more than three moves before they devolve back to their initial knocked-down state (here's a hint from This Old House's Norm the Master Carpenter: run a bead of construction adhesive on all joints before fastening them),
