![]() (I did notice the T-handle Allen wrench was ball-end so I could use it at an angle.) I have to say that assembling both your Caretta desk and the made-in-China shelf rack within a short period of time made for a dramatic juxtaposition of epic proportions. I suspect there are many other little, thoughtful, positive things that went into the engineering of your desk, but that I'll never notice because they simply weren't a problem and everything worked well. I appreciate that you included quality tools and that the main desk only used one bolt size. I believe that shelf rack is the last piece of furniture I'm buying from China. I know that sounds ridiculous, but I'm not kidding. Apparently paint defects are so common that fixing them is literally one of the steps in the installation manual, and a paint pen is included in the parts kit. The Chinese rack also had several defects in the paint that was applied. On the Chinese rack about 40% of the parts have some sort of cosmetic defect, the worst being missing/uneven chrome application on a critical decorative part. I appreciate that I literally could not find even the tiniest of defects anywhere on your desk and accessories. ![]() Some were way too tight, and I could tell I was "making my own threads". Most were too loose, resulting in major parts that are visibly not aligned square. On the Chinese rack, I experienced supposedly identical screw holes that were both too tight and too loose. I appreciate that the tolerances of Caretta's parts were neither too tight nor too loose-they were perfect. These bits flew all over the place and stubbornly clung to everything via static electricity, making cleanup extra difficult. The Chinese rack used a cheap, white, pressed-pellet foam that had disintegrated into a million tiny bits. I appreciate that Caretta's packaging materials were clean and simple. This smell triggered hours of sneezing, and left a lingering unpleasant chemical smell in the room for a few days. I didn't really think anything about that until later when I opened the box from China, which resulted in the immediate smell of off-gassing chemicals. I appreciate that Caretta's materials, upon being unboxed, did not have a noticeable bad odor. I have some additional feedback for you based on this experience. All of the hardware is included, so all you need is a screwdriver! Compliant with CARB regulation 93120 – Phase 2.“ A few days after I assembled the Caretta desk, I also received and assembled a cheap shelf rack made in China.
