Also FYI: OD has had this desk for $299, and hutch for $99 in the past when I bought mine.
I much prefer a large straight desk and you are pretty open to options when you move to different rooms etc.

Installation
I agree it's not the easiest thing to put together because it has a lot of pieces. If you have put together IKEA furniture, this is pretty similar. I did it mostly alone and took me about 6-7 hours over 2 days. If you have help it will go much faster. Sometimes you have to hold together two pieces to fasten them and having someone around makes it a lot easier.
Moving
I have moved it once from a 2nd floor room to the basement. The U shape is actually 2 unconnected parts, an L and an I. I just disassembled the L into two pieces. I was then able to move it with another person's help. Just don't count on doing it frequently!
Hutch
I bought the hutch along with the desk but ended up never using it. Initially, it was because it would block windows in my upstairs office. Later I started using 2- and then 3 large monitors which would be tricky with the hutch.
Overall, it is a good investment for someone who spends a lot of time at their desk and needs (or likes to have) ample workspace for computers, printers, files, papers, etc. If you're the kind of person who just works with a 13-in laptop and your phone you don't need this desk.
PS
I'm happy to give my hutch for free to a fellow SDer if you can pick up in the Boston area. It's been sitting unopened in a corner of my garage for all these years.
