- 72-Inch L-Shaped Desk with Storage, Corner Computer Office Desk with File and Box Drawers, Home Office Workstation with Storage Cabinet, Somerset Collection, Maple Cross

Took a while to get my office totally done, it’s a process but am so happy with it and get a ton of compliments on the desk. Modern style yet also timeless. I went with Ashgrey to straddle the grays and browns, especially later when grey is not so trendy. Overall assembly went well. Take your time, read and follow instructions thoroughly. A couple of my panels were not labeled with part numbers but easy enough to figure out. I did have one chipped board and manufacture service was excellent. Took some patience to get drawers adjusted to be straight and glide nice but that is what it takes, patience and they are awesome.Changes I made: swapped out smaller screw heads on drawer slides to make glide a little smoother and quieter. Added drawer tray (shown in picture) that rides on top of drawer to fit 2 layers of storage, Cut down the keyboard shelf to use to hide my pile of active work papers/to do at end of day rather than keyboard. Cut hole in back of computer cabinet to run chords.Desk is spacious, very functional, nice quality/value. Love the color. I think Bush is better manufacturer than Sauder for similar price range. All hardware seems nice quality. Feet are plastics, but they look nice.I would definitely buy again.

Love this desk so far!!! After reading a bunch of reviews I was prepared for the worst…. But I have to say, it was WAY easier than I thought it would be. Yes there was som adjusting to do on the doors, but honestly I’ve had a way worse time assembling IKEA furniture. Take the time to read the whole booklet before starting and you’ll be fine.I only have two complaints and they’re super minor cosmetic issues.1. The holes for cords sit a bit further away from the wall than they should be. So the cords sit in front of the desk wall. Just not pretty if you have this sitting in a corner. See pics.2. I put my monitor in the corner of the desk and the pull out keyboard tray only works on the sides of the desk. But I’m fine with it really.

If there was a way to list negative five stars I would. I don't normally write reviews but this desk is so absurdly overpriced and ridiculously complicated to put together that I want to save someone else the trouble. BUSH should be ASHAMED of itself for shipping a product this bad. Nothing that costs $350 should be constructed with plywood - just to start but I digress. The pieces are crudely drilled and barely fit together with the instructions. There are a bajillion different screws and most of them look identical. The instruction manual labels them but the plastic packs of screws don't. They were stuffed into compartments with no rhyme or reason making it impossible to know which screws to use. You will spend hours just trying to decipher which freaking screws to use - and you'll be wrong. So very wrong. Abandon all hope. Oh you'll feel good about solving the riddle for a minute but that feeling will dissipate quickly because a few steps later - WRONG! I hope you didn't have anything better to do. Time to undo everything you just did and start over. The same process is repeated over and over again until six hours are gone and you're barely beyond the starting point. The product should specify that only wizards or divine beings will be able to assemble this cheap piece of garbage. The best part is, after I rightfully gave up, I called Amazon to inform them of this debacle and set up a professional assembly crew. That crew spent an hour, gave up, said there was a liability issue and bailed. That's how bad this desk is. Professional builders refuse to put it together. I'm not kidding. We demanded a refund, packed the pieces up and set them up for UPS to take away. Good riddance. DO NOT BUY THIS. AVOID AT ALL COSTS. RUN FOR THE HILLS and construct a rudimentary desk from sapling, bark and mud. You'll be much happier.

The good:* When it's all done, this is a really nice desk to look at. It's a large L with nice wood grain, so really stands out in a room.* Much sturdier than I expected with no central support under the L. I love having the deep room under the desk with no feet in the way. The top surface is composed of 1" particle board as opposed to more standard 3/4" so there is only marginal flexing when applying pressure to the corner join (or keyboard tray, which connects near the join).* The keyboard drawer is very large and deep, so you can store a big keyboard and mouse, and other accessories that can be stored out of sight in the back.* The assembly instructions are completely accurate (AFAICT), but the PARTS you receive may not be (see below). Trust the instructions; question the parts you receive.The bad:* Computer tower design is bad. Cabinet is completely enclosed except for a small, 2" top-to-bottom slit in the back of the inside wall. This makes airflow tough unless you keep the cabinet door open. Who though drawing air through the same hole as the exhaust was a good idea? A few ideas: move the tower to the inside corner where there lots of space, or replace/alter the cabinet facing with something with venting or speaker foam, etc.* No wiring holes ANYWHERE. Except for the aforementioned slit for the cabinet, all wires must be routed down the back of the desk. Kind of crazy. If your desk will face toward the room, you'll probably want to route your own holes in the top of the desk.* Particle board. Like all Bush furniture, it's particle board with a wood grain laminate so it WILL SCUFF EASILY, particularly during unpacking and assembly. I was screwing in a subassembly on top of another piece and had slid the wood around as I worked on the screws. Apparently there was a piece of grit underneath and it scratched the surface of the laminate. Not deeply, but enough to show the lighter particle board underneath so it stuck out. I was able to use a dark wood stain and a rag to rub it into the scratch and then buff off, and the scratch all but disappeared. I did the same when placing my computer tower in the assembled cabinet (scuffed on a plastic piece no less) when I was finished assembling. Just be aware as you are placing things on the desk. Scuffs are inevitable with this kind of wood, but it hurts more when it's brand new. :)* Poor quality control. I was pretty disappointed with the quality control, as a desk with multiple assembly options takes quite a bit of effort to convince yourself that there really is something wrong. In the end, I had two pieces with missing holes. One I got replaced, and the other I did myself because I was almost done and frustrated by the delays:* An inside panel was delivered with 2 anchor holes missing. I had also purchased the matching lateral file and it was delivered with the bottom of the back panel crushed (you couldn't tell on delivery). It was the evening before Thanksgiving, so customer service wasn't open until the next Monday, and the replacement parts weren't delivered until the next Friday. Pretty frustrating to close off the room for 9 days to protect it from kids and lose my time off to assemble it.* During the final steps I discovered the top was missing 2 holes to mount the keyboard tray for a left-hand return configuration. At that point I drilled my own holes as the mount was adjustable and didn't need to be perfect.In the end, I am using the faulty pieces to cut shelves out of and turn the tower cabinet into an electronics storage cabinet. All's well that ends well, I guess. ;)Warnings:* The short board is the least supported, so left-hand return configurations will be the least sturdy and have that most vibration when typing (I'm using this config, and I can see a slightly annoying bounce in my monitor as my palms shift on the keyboard tray).* It's a very large L (larger than common 60" desks) so consider the space you will have to walk around it.

Assembly was painstaking, but for the price of what you get you can't beat it.
