Did anyone else put their table together and the top shelf isn't level? I mean, it slants down to the back.

I've done it all by myself (without any man's input, just me, the girl!) and it was very easy to assemble (to my astonishment). Every single part fitted another one like a glove, so I can't complain. The instructions are pretty easy, and the whole piece is very well worth the money and the assembling effort. Maybe you just got the stand with a flaw, or maybe you are just too tired and stressed. Take a breather, and try to do it tomorrow with a happy attitude. I'm sure it'll work for you! Best of luck!

Yes, I returned the item though. It came all dented up and the shelves I felt were very weak.

I ran into a similar issue and then realized I had put it together backwards. Took it all apart and had it together and working in just a few minutes. I'd double check that everything is together the right way.

Had the same problem/question. Not smart enough to ask online so I just built a shelf.

??? Do you mean the shadow? Are we talking horizontal or vertical? A couple of the shelves have a small overhang on the top to keep stuff in. The shelf looks OK, but it's made from cheap material and a huge pain to assemble.

I have the same problem. I thought the desk was not level, and that us why it kept opening , but that is not the case. I love the desk, but that is a flaw that needs to be addressed.

The side panels seem to be too weak to support the shelves. The vertical support would definitely be helpful. This item is almost totally made of pressed wood.

Absolutely NOT--I know because that's exactly what I wanted to do, in fact it's what I assumed I was supposed to do. But when I did, it was wobbly and unstable. It simply crashed over. I wondered what was wrog with the darn thing until my friend said the shelves were upside don. I thought,"of course they aren't, why would the lip hang down, I mean what earthly use would it be if it did?" But once I flipped the shelves, it was as stable as can be. I really do like this shelving a lot, in spite of my disagreement with the downward-facing lip.

You should have had a parts list.... There are screws for the corners.... My husband put it together and everything was there. Was your box damaged in transit?(ours was and the corner of the table was shredded, we fixed it ourselves because of time from Christmas....)If you had damage maybe the packet of screws fell out before you received your purchase. My husband had no problem putting it together. Sorry I can't be of more help.

I leveled the table and then put on the casters. It was still level when finished. Used a jig to position bottom shelf to ensure it was level.

You're not doing anything wrong. Some of them come uneven. I need to prop one leg up with a book to keep it level. I really should have returned it, but it seemed too much trouble to do that.

Yes, ours leaned back but I just adjusted it slightly (heard a little "pop") and now it's sitting straight and swivels nicely. I think maybe we didn't get the screws properly threaded in the stand initially.

Same happened to mine. It was worth it to me to just get more substantial shelving.

I ended up returning mine.... It was messed up, had several dents, etc. I simply wanted to "exchange" it, but they forced me to repurchase. When I went to repurchase the price went up $30. I thought that unfair, so I did not purchase it. I still have a coordinating end table that I purchased from another vendor.

Flat'ish. There's still a little bit of a rise, so it's not completely flat on the tabletop. I think, given time, it might flatten out completely.

Good luck! My table showed up with the ends all beat up. I reported the situation to the company and never received a reply from them or Amazon. No longer buying furniture from Amazon.

Mine wasn't completely settled either. When I put it on the shelf it did eventually settle and works great. Hope this helps!
