I couldn’t be more pleased with this desk. I am impressed by how well it came together and how sturdy it is despite arriving in what seemed like a million pieces. I’ve built a lot of furniture, and will say this took me some time. Maybe a few hours? You need to take your time and be meticulous about assembly especially when you have doors and drawers to contend with. I ended up watching a few of the YouTube videos suggested in the instructions just to ensure I was doing something correctly. It’s very solid and I really like the color (I ordered it in Washed Gray). We are so happy with the quality we ordered a second set for my husband’s office.

This filing cabinet is amazing, and I was so proud of myself for assembling it by myself. It's got a great anti-tipping locking feature, where only one of the drawers can be opened at a time. The inside details can also be customized to fit either legal or letter sized folders, which you can hang both directions.

Beautiful piece! The designers who engineered this were very precise. When putting this together, be patient, trust the pieces will fit and come together. You can do this alone, but recommend a second person when attaching the sides to the top. When you’re finished, you’ll be proud that you put this together!

I bought this as a gift for my brother - after coming to rely on my lateral file folder cabinet. The unit comes in a very heavy box - so make sure you're prepared to do some lugging around - with help. The assembly is not for the feint of heart - there are A LOT of pieces - and must be put together in a very particular way. My friend who was helping ended up putting two pieces on the wrong way - and I had to redo all her work. Ouch. But the instruction manual has a nifty feature - QR codes for almost all pages/key steps - which takes you to YouTube for a how-to assembly demo of that particular step. Note, we needed a very small screwdriver for the back cardboard piece - didn't have - so we substituted with a staple gun - worked great. Final piece is sturdy - and looks great. Remember - it doesn't come with file folders, so be sure to put that on your shopping list when the unit shows up. Very happy with it.

Don’t be afraid to order this desk, even if you have not assembled furniture before but it will help to have an experienced tool wrangler with a drill if you are a do it yourself furniture newbie like me. The schematic drawings and step-by-step directions along with labeled hardware in individual bags and stickers on desk pieces makes it possible to assemble especially if you have an extra pair of hands. My husband and I did it over a period of two days whenever we could put some pieces together but I imagine someone who is familiar with self assembled furniture can do it without stopping in one day.Helpful hint: If you have a PC (tower) one thing we did to keep the computer area vented, in case I forget to leave the door open was cut to fit the thin cardboard you place in back of the computer cubby. You will need it for in back of the top shelf so nothing falls out the back but where the computer sits can be open in the back.The desk is beautiful in my home and LOOKS like real wood however remember, it is just cheap wood covered with paper...I wouldn’t even say it’s a laminate because it is just paper printed to look like wood! Keep this in mind if you go to remove the “notice“ sticker on the inside of the door to the computer cubby. I went to remove it and ended up ripping off the very thin layer of wood looking surface. I would give this five stars because of the beautiful way it came packed without damage, clear directions and correct amount of hardware. I take one star off because of the wood print paper... It would be better if it was laminated.

Arrived quickly and well packaged so there was no damage. Hubby put it together for me - there were a lot of steps and some grease on the drawer sliders so it was a bit of a dirty job. It looks great and functions well. 1 drawer opens at a time to help prevent tipping which I like. The hardware pieces to put it together are mostly made of plastic and the bottoms of the drawers are not wood for sure, more like a wood composite which is flimsier, so I have to get actual hanging folders for my files. Despite the seemingly subpar materials it is sturdy seems to work great so far! Would cautiously recommend.

All pieces arrived undamaged. This piece was relatively easy to put together. The drawers pen and close easily. Files can hang all the way across when vertical or theres a divider and one side files can hang horizontally and the other side vertically. Thats one of two downsides I see to this piece. I wish it was wide enough to hang two rows of files horizontally (see picture for clarification). I shouldve thought to measure two files side by side so I wouldve known this piece was too small to do this. The other thing I dont care for is that the back piece is literally a piece of card board rather than press board or manufactured wood. Since it will be against a wall it shouldnt be too much of a problem but it does cheapen the piece. Overall, it looks pretty in my office and matches my other furniture and I like it.

This filing cabinet is nice and matches my furniture which is a plus. It took 3 hours to put together. There were several pieces and screws. It would have been nicer if it was easier to put together. Once it was put together and moved into place, pieces started separating. All directions were followed and screws put correctly in place but it does not hold together well.It comes with holders for the hanging files to hang from. These do not stay in place and nothing was given to hold them there. Trying to put files in, the holders kept falling off. The holders just sit on top of the side of the drawer.It looks great (when not moved), has large drawers, and will serve its purpose.

PROS: Beautiful color, middle drawer slides out nicely, deep storage in cabinet. CONS: This desk is 's monster. - Tracking marked the desk as "missing" for about a month but on Wayfair it had it marked as delivered. I will say that a rep at Wayfair was very helpful about locating the desk to push that shipment forward somehow. - During assembly, the wood piece that goes under the drawer was broken and unusable. The back of the desk was also incorrectly made where I had to do the opposite of what the instructions told me in order to piece it together. BIGGEST ISSUE: The top piece(s) of the desk. - The top piece is actually 3 pieces that you connect with screws/plates. Because of poor manufacturing, the top pieces never line up and make the entire desk crooked. I have to use coasters underneath the legs of the desk just to keep it SEMI-aligned. The cabinet door touches the cabinet, making it difficult to open/close and the desk always creaks/shifts as I'm using it because of the misalignments. I've taken the top piece off before to try and redo the installation, only to end up with the same results of a very crooked desk. I would have returned it but having to take the desk completely apart and packaging it back up made me feel like something else would go terribly wrong. RECOMMENDATION: I chose this desk for the storage but I would suggest getting the L Shaped desk instead. My husband uses this desk and has no issues, meanwhile I feel like my desk will crack in half at some point. I was going to get a matching filing cabinet but this purchase made me decide against doing so.

Bush furniture was horrible quality. It came with not enough of some pieces and too many of others. Some of predrilled holes were too large for fasteners which resulted in a poor fit. The letter O pieces were too long(see photo). I think Wayfair needs to be more explicit with customers on amount of time needed to assemble purchased items.

This was a huge pain to build. Took 2 adults to complete despite us being adept at putting furniture like this together. One side drawer panel came badly scratched, by the time we saw it, it wasn’t worth taking the thing apart to send it back. The top has some odd, round shaped residue spots we can’t entirely get off. We’re still trying to adjust the drawers to close flush with the cabinet. It’s taken hours, and we have removed the rails to again try get the drawers to close. So sorry we got this item.

A cherry wood desk not only adds a beautiful decorative touch to your home or office, it provides you with a work space to increase your productivity and organization (many traditional cherry wood desks have ample storage/shelving included). A cherry wood desk complements a traditional and classic style motif, as the warm, rich color of natural cherry wood is elegant, eye-catching and traditional. A cherry desk can enhance a classic design motif and elicits a vintage or antique feeling within the room. Cherry wood is more dense compared to other wood varieties, meaning it is a bit heavier than other wood desks, so it’s best if two or more people assemble and/or move a cherry wood desk.

Hardwoods

If you are looking to invest in a desk that is more durable and easier to maintain, the hardwood desk is your choice. The hardwood is usually visually characterized by the darker color, which has made them much more expensive than other types of wood. The wood has got a high density making durable and resistance to termites and other wood-boring insects. Hardwoods often have very strong wood density, which is closely connected with the species of tree that yielded it. Hardwoods are also stronger and more durable due to their more condensed and complex structure. This means your desk will last longer.

Pine

However, the wood is not quite strong, but it does offer durability. Desk made using this wood are usually elegant and eye catching. The wood takes paint very well, making it friendly for kids.

Depending on our preference, the wood produces good desk that have different styles to enable you to select your option. It may not last quite as long as oak, but pine is still a strong, shock-resistant material suitable for furniture, particularly if you like the rustic or country styles While furniture made from pine is still moderately heavy and sturdy, it is lighter than oak. Pine has its own benefits such as wood hardness, color and durability. It depends on what you need as to which is better for you. The wood is also resistance against rot and decay making it a good choice for a good desk or other furniture’s.

Softwoods

Softwood wood species is easier to work with and it’s used to make great tabletops or generally the whole table or desk. The wood can be cut using machines into desirable shapes, hence producing good desk. The lower density of softwood timber means it's weaker and less durable, however there are some 'hard' softwood options with a higher density making great tabletop. The wood being soft can easily be attacked by termites and other woodborers, making your table to be weak. They also come in more reliable sizes and qualities than hardwoods. The wood is also prone to scratches and dent. Softwood is not always suitable for high amounts of use like floors for example and can be easily worn down after periods of time. They have a poor fire resistance, which should be considered carefully before placing table or desk down in different areas where they might be exposed to those sorts of environments.
