Nice desk but not a one person install
I had the staples installation service installed the desk. It doesn’t say that you need more than one person to do the install. There’s a vague comment about having a friend and you might need a second set of hands. The installation company sent one person but I was here to help her out. I like the desk is solid. I like the color and the drawers are very smooth. My onl...

Love these!
I have had Bush Business furniture for over 20 years. I have used the desks, lateral files, and especially like the hutches that go on top of the desks. Had the last set for 20 years then moved and just bought the new Somerset 72 w desk set with hutch and some other pieces. They do take a little bit to put together but they are well made, well designed, and well thought...

Very Happy, Great Quality Desk
Great quality and easy to put together with the instructions that were provided. There was a piece that was missing and the service department sent it out right away. We bought 2 additional pieces to go with this desk and very happy with the purchase

Very Good Product
Desk arrived on the date promised. The packaging was ok but some of the parts shifted inside the box while in transit. Luckily there was no significant damage, and the little damage occurred in places that are not visible once desk is assembled. Assembly was very easy (instruction were very straightforward) and took me about three hours without any help. Getting the fro...

Perfect desk for home office
This desk was exactly what I was looking for when setting up my home office. The pictures made it look a lot bigger than what it is in person which I was super happy about! It’s sturdy solid and took my husband about 2 hours to assemble.

Good product. Assembly directions nsg
Assembly instructions step 31 slightly confusing. I was trying to put drawer unit on left side but I think this page is for right side installation. Otherwise all went well.

Great Desk!
Love the look and quality of this desk! So much workspace and the drawers are deep and sturdy. Not too bad to assemble, just make sure you follow the manual and decide which side you want the drawers to be on. Otherwise you'll have to take it all apart like I did. Would buy again for sure.

Decent Quality And Functional Desk
The desk is decent quality for the price and being made of particle board. Heavier than expected and while the drawers aren't perfect, the hardware for sliding was good and the bottoms of the drawers aren't flimsy. Should hold up for a good while. Putting it together does take time. It took my husband approximately 2 hours but he was able to get it put together by just ...

Excellent Looking Desk
This is an excellent desk, fairly easy to put together though there were two holes that were drilled incorrectly and some of the hole plugs were a little too tight to fit, but those are minor things. Overall I am very happy with the desk so far after owning it for several weeks.

Two Minor Assembly Issues I
Two minor assembly issues I was missing three screws, which I recognized before I opened the plastic bags. The top did not slide in perfectly as expected. Several adjustments to the circular connectors didn't help. I stilllike the product.

Desk
Very happy with my desk. The two drawers are enough for us as we are retired and do not have much paperwork or files anymore.

Great Instructions
So even though the assembly of this desk did take hours the instructions were very detailed and easy to follow. I’m giving 5 stars because I don’t think I’ve ever seen directions so clear before. Would recommend

Nice desk for a reasonable price
Perfect desk for our new home. I replaced an old heavy large desk with this narrower lighter desk that was perfect for our new home. Good value!

Is what it is
Relatively easy to assemble but had some mixed up hardware - excluded 3 screws needed for the drawer rail slider and added 3 extra for another part. Also is it possible to find a desktop that doesn’t have a slight bow? So annoying. There should be a way to reinforce during construction. Oh well. Good price and a sturdy piece of furniture overall.
