Bush Business Furniture Series A 48W Corner Desk in Natural Cherry and Slate, Compact L Shaped Workstation, Office Desktop Solution for Workspace

I plan on converting my spare bedroom into an office and I decided to purchase a corner desk for my computer and accessories. I have been researching a variety of corner desks for over a year and decided on the Bush Furniture 48W Corner Desk. It appeared to be sturdy, and viewing images on-line, the dark cherry veneer fit my requirement.I was pleasantly surprised by the beautiful cherry veneer desktop! I wasn’t expecting the desk to be this nice, especially the side/leg supports, which are a deep grey ash color, almost black. The colors work well together. The desk is made of particle board with veneer/laminate for a surface, and the price on Amazon was quite reasonable.I was worried about damage during transport, and after receiving the desk my worries were justified. I paid the delivery fee to have the desk delivered to any room in my house, which was well worth the cost. The delivery technician had difficulties handling the large package by himself! Once the package was placed in my home, I immediately checked for damage. A few of the package sides were almost open, luckily some of the large staples were still intact. There were a few punctures in the box, but fortunately nothing was damaged!I would like to recommend to Bush Furniture that this desk be delivered in two separate packages. The desk top could be one box with the remaining components in a second box. In this way, the weight will be more distributed and less difficulty in handling. I have received Sauder furniture with separate boxes and the end result was less chance for damage.Assembly was fairly easy using the pictorial instructions provided. I am a small female, weigh about 105 lbs., and in my 60’s. I was able to assemble the desk by myself, but required assistance in lifting the desk right-side up. I read reviews before the assembly process and found a number of them were very helpful. One reviewer pointed out that sides B and C required the pilot holes to be opened and drilled deeper for the 3” screws. They were spot on! This delayed the assembly by 15 to 20 minutes while assessed the situation and used my drill with the appropriate drill bit to modify the pilot holes. I was also careful not to tighten all the fasteners until the components were lined up properly.Overall, the assembly took about 2-1/2 hours, which includes unpacking, reviewing components, reading instructions, and organizing the appropriate tooling. I also labeled the inside of each side/leg for easier assembly.If you are looking for a beautiful, sturdy, professional looking corner desk, I would highly recommend the Bush Furniture 48W Corner Desk! I plan on buying one of the straight desks (36”, 48”) as an extension once my office remodeling is more complete.

I purchase many things through Amazon, but this is my first review as I feel this desk needed to be appreciated.The desk isn't real wood, but is some of the heaviest non wood desks I've seen. The desk arrived in a single very large box. I need to help the FedEx driver with it up the stairs as I don't know anyone that could lift it by themselves. You assemble the table upside down then flip it over once it's all assembled. Very easily doable solo. I did it all by myself and it took about an hour (while also watching Netflix during it). The boards are labeled to match the instructions and hardware is grouped together with other parts you use at the same time. Instructions were easy for me to understand and the pre-drilled holes lined were well fit and aligned properly. Could easily do with just a handheld Phillips. I used a drill for a couple of the long screws, but a handheld for everything else. The desk fits in a corner nicely. Be aware it would be hard to reach the end of the table where the cords go through, but I'm not sure why you would after initial setup. Shelves on the wall would be hard to reach though if they aren't very near the close edges of the desk. I don't have anything on my walls near the desk and I don't reach for the cords, so it's not any issue for me at all. Really happy with the look of the cherry. It looks nice and the particle board (or whatever the material is) is very dense-most dense I've dealt with, so it doesn't feel cheap either. I definitely see this desk being in my house for a long time.

This desk is perfect for me. Lots of space, looks gorgeous, feels very solid. I have three monitors (24" in middle, 2x22" on the sides). They are all on monitor arms.Pros include beautiful, sturdy, good space, good cable management, curve where you sit is really excellent. Exactly what I was looking for.Cons: I couldn't attach a fairly standard monitor arm base to the back left or right left, where I wanted to put them. I put my middle monitor arm through the far back corner cable hole, and that worked well for one monitor. I had to put my left and right monitor arms further up toward the front, where the left and right main "legs" of the desk stop, and the desk is open underneath. Past that, and around the desk, is only about 2" of "clampable" desk area underneath. I also didn't need to get all three monitors on monitor arms, as there is plenty of space to just use regular monitor stands, even on three monitors. I have a ridiculous amount of space because of all monitors on arms, though, which I love. I hate clutter on my desk, so I'm very happy.Also, shipping/getting it into my apartment was a pain. The thing weighs around 110 pounds. I helped the UPS driver haul it up to my apartment, and putting the desk together took a long time, though it wasn't overly difficult. It's not enough to take off any stars. The desk is absolutely worth muscling it into place after putting it together for a couple hours. It's possible it will get a few scratches in shipping, but mine arrived just fine.Overall, awesome desk. Make sure you have space using the picture with measurements (super handy image by the way, "Bush Furniture").
