Bush Furniture Cabot L Shaped Computer Desk in White | Corner Table with Drawers and Storage for Personal Home Office Workspace

I bought this desk because I am working from home and need a lot of space for these monitors, which are each 20 inches, for the perspective. I am very happy with the purchase and would definitely recommend this desk. Here is my feedback:PROS:- The finish is very pretty. I got the Harvest Cherry. It's not "wood", don't expect wood and you won't be disappointed.. this is particle board that has a finish, but it's a nice finish. You do want to be careful not to chip or scratch it, but it's not made of glass. I am honestly glad it is not real wood because this desk is very heavy already.- It has enough space to hold everything I need it to hold. Two 20-inch monitors, two laptops, some odds and ends, keyboard, mouse, etc. One of the sides is a little bit wider than the other (the side with the cabinet), just an FYI. The cabinet can fit a standing CPU or you can use it for whatever.- It's not too big and not too small for a space... It's a good-sized desk to have to sit at all day.- It looks exactly as advertised. No surprises.- I thought the glass in the cabinet looked a little cheesy in the advertisement but I wanted the desk anyway; in actuality the cabinet is pretty nice. I thought there were colored bars in the glass in the picture but it's actually just how they cut/designed the glass itself and that's how it looks when it's photographed. The quality is nice.CONS:- Okay, let's talk about this assembly -- there are 31 steps and some of them have these mini-steps. It WILL. take. A GOOD FEW HOURS. (Like maybe 4 hours) ... Do not underestimate this. It is not terribly difficult, you don't need to be a rocket scientist, but this is not a walk in the park. You CAN do it using only a screwdriver but my hand is in paaain now; a power screwdriver might really help as some other reviews have said. You have to screw in like 300 THINGS. :O D: The finished product is worth it though. My hand needs a spa day now but I am chilling at my nice new pretty desk lol. --- I did have to take a break and come back to it...- Guys, seriously, it's a whole carpentry project. You will need a screwdriver, a hammer, and some wood glue. The wood glue is for the dowels but the finished assembly will not be "relying" on the glue as it will be held in by other pieces; it's just very good measure and helps a lot during the process. I thought about it after-the-fact and would really not recommend skipping the glue, avoid the temptation if you don't have any and go get some lol. Be careful not to lose these little nails, it comes with the exact amount of things you need and it's a LOT of little screws and metal pieces. The good thing is the instructions are not hard to follow at all, everything is clearly labeled .... make sure you look closely at the drawings and pay attention when it says "finished side up" etc so you know your pieces are in the right orientation. On two steps it will direct you to watch a video to help, which is nice.- This phone holder shelf thing is kind of pointless. It would have been better if it were a real shelf... it won't fit many people's phones and I think it will be more convenient just to charge my phone and not have to string all these cords through to that part. But I don't mind it, it's not bothersome to me, it doesn't look ugly... I just doubt anyone is really using that feature. Maybe I'll just put my phone in it to prevent losing it. *shrug* So the desk has a little quirk. Probably everyone who ever sees your desk will be like "what's this part for" and you'll be like "I am not really sure" ..- You CAN put it together yourself, but it would be WAY. EASIER. with a helper (and the instructions say that you need one on four or five steps). If you do it yourself, you will have to use some boxes or something to hold parts up at times. I really do not recommend putting it together by yourself unless you have to. . ... Particularly the step where you put the big heavy slab on top and you need to make sure 22 bolts line up with 22 holes omg... I was SWEATING. (I am a 5' 3" woman, for the perspective... maybe if you're a big strappy dude it won't be a problem)... CAN it be done alone? Yes. But it's not made to be put together alone so please be careful not to hurt yourself. If you are strong enough to lift and install one of those older heavy window air conditioning units on your own, you can probably do this. If you are not, don't even try this, please get a friend; with a buddy it's probably a piece of cake.All in all, I REALLY like this desk. It was worth the assembly and the time. I am very happy with it.

The 2 packages arrived in perfect condition. The contents were well packed with no scratches, damage, or missing parts. Some reviewers claimed that the instructions were inadequate. I found it quite the opposite. There are very few written instructions. But, there are great detailed, illustrated drawings. If you just take one page at a time and complete each simple sub-assembly to match the drawing it will all come together without any problems. Every fastener is in a numbered bag, and every part has a part number identifier decal which matches the drawing. I did the assembly by myself. No help needed. It is almost impossible to make a mistake. Each fastener is shown on the drawings in full size detail.There are a lot of parts so it does take a few hours to assemble. The process is easy, but slow. There are lots of fasteners. You absolutely do not need to glue anything to assemble a very sturdy desk. In my opinion it is best not to use a power screwdriver. The components have a particle board base and I have lots of experience with particle board. Unless you have the torque set pretty low you can easily tear out the particle board making it impossible to install a fastener at that location. A plain old screwdriver will give a much better feel for how much stress the particle board can tolerate.When I assembled the drawer I just set the screws holding the slides in about the center of the hole and there was no need for any adjustments. The drawer fit perfectly. The glass paneled door has Euro style hinges. These can be a little tricky if you have no experience with them. I have used them many times so I was able to quickly adjust the door until it fit the opening exactly right.The finish on all surfaces is more durable than I was expecting. If you just use a little care not to let sharp items be pulled over the surface I think it should be good for long term use.I use a laptop computer so the big desktop cabinet opening is not so useful for me. I wish they had included an extra flat shelf that could be installed in the opening. I intend to make one later and will have to try and match the finish.All things considered I would challenge anyone to find a better quality desk without paying a LOT more money.
