Review on Furinno Econ Multipurpose Computer Writing Desk πŸ’» in Gray - Perfect for Your Home Office Setup by Tiffany Stone

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Serves its purpose, is not particularly easy to assemble

This table requires a Phillips screwdriver, hammer, rubber mallet and ideally a second person to assemble this table. The hardware is well labeled and comes in individual pouches (rather than the usual blister packs that break halfway through assembly). It should be noted that I didn't have the two small number 8 screws, so I had to use them from the screws I had on hand. The instructions are relatively clear if you follow them very carefully (e.g. it is very clear which parts connect to which device if you study the diagrams closely) except for the order of the instructions. They appear to have been designed for letter-half-height paper and then printed on letter anyway. So the order is left-to-right and top-to-bottom, but instead it consists of two sets of four statements per page. It's a bit crazy because I have life experience with instructions flowing left to right then top to bottom. I put it together myself, turning the pieces over and over again so that they were mostly supported when rolled up. I ended up splitting a board because it was warped and I tried leveling the table with a backing board. This isn't the kind of furniture you'll pass down to your kids, but it will fit a laptop and some light office essentials. The shelves on the left are only rated for 10 pounds each, so I wouldn't recommend loading them with large reference materials or heavy items. The main desktop barely has room for my 15-inch work laptop and a small mouse.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Base required
