Corner L Work Center with Monitor Platform

This is a great desk and amazing value. Some relevant dimensions: - Center riser : height from desktop 6", 30" full corner to corner, 15" front facing center, -- 23" from back corner to front ledge, 10 3/4" from side back to side front. - Side riser : 21" wide 10 3/4" deep - Working surface in front of riser platforms -- Front edge to center riser : 22" -- Front edge corner to middle of side riser inside drawer : 13" -- Front edge corner to drawer front of side riser : 9" -- Front edge: 32" - Side drawers: inside width: 12 1/2" inside length: 16" inside depth 4" Pros: 1. The Monitor platform is perfect, I have a 27" on the main and a 23" on one side. There is easily room for both (and a third) to be comfortably larger. You could attach a monitor arm for even more flexibity. 2. The quality of the wood is good. Solid and sturdy with an attractive laminate/finish that is slightly glossy. It appears to be easy to clean and doesn't appear to take scuffs easily. In my opinion, better quality than my go-to Swedish brand. The front ledges have a nice rounding to the edge. 3. Plenty of storage space in the drawers, and room under the desk for a large gaming tower and ottoman 4. Price. Great value for size and quality ratio. Cons: 1. Difficult for one person to put together, Instructions are clear and easy to follow for anyone familiar with cam-lock Swedish style furniture. There are some pieces like the back corner, where you need access behind the desk to tighten the cams. 2. Dowls are glued for stability, that also means you probably don't want to move this huge desk. *glue is supplied. Best to build the desk into it's final resting place. 3. Some drawer slides are wonky, they seem good quality, but are finicky and not easy to slide the drawers into place. The file drawers use a larger smoother slide is very nice to open and close. The smaller drawers stick a bit. 4. No cable management.

I received this desk on Thursday (Sept 12) and assembled nearly all of it with no help by Friday evening- needed help with putting the top on. It's a good fit in my office and is a very sharp looking piece of furniture. It is very sturdy and holds everything I need it to. I looked for quite a while at desks before picking this one for myself. The size is great and the price was reasonable. Nothing was damaged in shipping - it was very well packaged, and everything was drilled right and went together perfectly.

The Desk works as advertised. It was very cumbersome to assemble though.

I like the desk but it was very frustrating to assemble because not all the parts were included and my husband had to use his drill where there should have been holes. He “made” it work because we didn’t want to hassle with sending it back or waiting on parts.

I am a computer professional (systems software engineer) who recently set up a home office. This workstation configuration is perfect for my system and peripherals with space left over for "desk work". After reading some of the other reviews on the construction, though, I have to say that I agree with the comments. First and foremost, the labels on the hardware bags did not match up with the written instructions which, in turn, did not match up with the hardware parts list, so you have to visually look at each and update the list in the instructions to ensure that you are using the right parts with the right. I also consider myself mechanically adept (I've put together many items similar to this), but the instructions for the side drawer attachments do not tell you 1) that they are the same item number and for the left side, the cam locks face the rear of the desk and for the right side, the cam locks face the front of the desk (there are just enough paper wood labels between the two drawers to cover the cam locks on the right-hand side). The rest of the desk was relatively easy to put together once I figured out the parts issue and the mirrored side drawers.Normally, I could put an office desk and bookcase together in one day. This desk took two full days to figure out and put together, so be prepared appropriately. Also, there was not enough wood glue for all the pegs. Good thing I had some on hand from other wood projects.Oh, the final "gotcha". The keyboard drawer is not large enough for a full-sized keyboard and mouse with mousepad, so it's basically useless. Fortunately, there is enough desk space to accommodate a keyboard and mouse and the height of the desk for the keyboard and mouse is just right.Overall, given the "negatives" the finished product, as I said, is perfect for the computer professional.

Instructions we’re easy to follow

when husband put the big top part on a board going from the corner back support to the right side of drawers broke completely into and feel onto the floor. I love the design of the desk and had waited for a year to get back in stock and am totally disappointed in support of desk :(
