Review on Teraves Reversible L Shaped Desk With Shelves Round Corner Computer Desk Gaming Table Workstation For Home Office by Veronica Toledo

I was nervous about the condition of the parts prior to opening the box but was pleasantly surprised that everything looked good. The hardware box was new and unopened so that gave a sense of comfort but that changed quickly. The instructions said it should contain 10 of a certain type of bolt to be used on the metal pieces. But the hardware had 10 screws that didn't even belong to this piece of furniture. At least the directions gave the save of the bolt that should have been sent. So I ran up to Lowe's and an found the correct ones. So now we could begin the install. But come to find out, you need 11 of those bolts. So another trip to Lowe's. So the directions had issues and the wrong hardware package was sent with the desk. I HATE to be inconvenienced and I most definitely was. But after the install was complete, I have to say it is sturdy and the quality is adequate. The piece they include for the tower of you PC is useless unless you nana lives with you and has that type of PC and her .aol email address. One final criticism is that the way it's constructed does not easily allow for an undermount keyboard tray. I can't blame the company because they didn't list that a benefit for the desk. But our old one doesn't fit and it is going to take some research to find one that works with the desk construction. Our old one doesn't work and I may end up having to rig something myself to get it tow work. This was a big disappointment to my wife as she wants as much desk space as possible and does not want the keyboard to have to sit on the desk. If you have a lot of files, ensure you have a separate file cabinet. The desk isn't THAT big where you can have stacks of files on it. Also a separate printer stand.for the same reason as the file cabinet. Sorry for the lengthy review. But to summarize, if you are lucky and receive it w/o any damaged pieces, you're in pretty good shape. CAREFULLY verify the correct hardware package was sent before opening it. Remember, even if the package is sealed, it doesn't mean it's the correct hardware for this desk. Give yourself 1.5-2 hours with 2 people to assemble it. Would I recommend to someone?.maybe. Depends on how much they are willing to spend. If money isn't huge issue, I'd say go buy a desk that is already assembled which will most likely be of better quality. If this thing starts to have issues in the near term, I'll edit the review but I won't return it. I don't have the patience for that, it's bulky and has some weight to it. Just consider it like you just lit a couple hundred bucks on fire and call it a day.
