It's fine because it never gets touched.

The top of my PC desk is a large "slab" of the same material and it's been scratched to bits since about a week after we got it.

Still better quality than argos

I have pretty much the same experience as you though, my kallax is still in perfect condition and it's a good few years old now but my computer station has bangs, scratches etc all over it.

I love the malm furniture though that's pretty solid and hard wearing although that could be due to us having the glass on top that protects them

Best place for furniture imo is wayfair
