Review on 🌳 Bush Business Furniture Series A 36W Desk in Light Oak with Sage Finish by Jeff Chisholm

I wanted a few things from a table: *Affordable *Simple *Large *Sturdy This table has got you covered. It's not perfect, but for the price, its small flaws are easy to overlook. Pros: *Large size. I should be able to easily set it up with my desktop/monitor on one end and room for my laptop and maybe a second monitor on the other end. And all this despite the fact that it has good bookshelf speakers and some other things that don't overload it. * It seems sturdy enough to fit all my stuff without hesitation. I wouldn't stand on it and put many hundreds of pounds on it, but having a few computers and office equipment on it will keep me from worrying. Ends up, wire holes on each leg and included wire guides that attach to a modest base. All this allows you to use clean cables. Cons: None of this is a determining factor, just observations that others might not like.* It's hard. The crate weighed about 100 pounds and the crate had no handles to make it easier to carry. Heavy can be a good sign of strength and/or quality (and it most likely is), but it also makes it harder to build, especially for yourself. . Especially when it comes to the countertop as it is the heaviest part I would guess it weighs 50-75 pounds. If you have a powerful screwdriver/drill, use it. I used a plain old screwdriver and it was a hassle. they are spotted. They are on one of the long edges of the box. For me 1 was ok and 2nd was torn but usable. Not really a minus at this price either, but the legs are made of wood, not metal. The only metal part is the "legs" of each leg. It would be nice if the 2 legs/sides were metal. They would be lighter and stronger, but would also increase the cost. All in all, this is a solid table. However, I was worried about the durability of the build. This uses the assembly method you see on cheaper furniture, which I don't know the parts name or process for, but will try to describe. They had a screw that was about 25% threaded end and about 75% shank. You screw/screw them into the pre-drilled holes on the underside of the countertop. The end of the rod is inserted into pre-drilled holes on each leg and modest back. You then place the metal "ring" in a pre-drilled hole about the size of a dime, and as you turn it, it snaps into the rod and pulls taut. I've found them to break/fail easily over time with lateral movement. pushing furniture across the floor. Of course, that hasn't happened yet, only that previous furniture with the same mechanics cannot withstand many moves, for example from house to house. Overall I'm very happy with it. It looks more expensive than the finished product, has plenty of surface space, and doesn't have any unnecessary drawers or complications that don't add much value to me and only add to the cost. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a pro like me as a home office desk.
