Reviews
There are a lot of pieces to this desk, but my son and I put it together. It probably took us a total of five hours with him doing most of the work, I just basically handed him things. It turned out good though, and the desk is very sturdy. It does have a smell to it like a new car or new carpet smell. I called Sauders and they said the smell will go away after a while. They said if you could move it into a room and cut the heat up high and let it stay for about an hour it would go away faster, but the desk is heavy and there ain’t no moving it into a room I could do that, I’d have to heat the whole house and it is summertime. I’ve had mine together for a little over a week and I can tell the smell is getting less and less every day.
Pretty good for a desk in a box!
Put this desk together yesterday. It came 2 days after I ordered it, a week and a half ahead of schedule. It took my husband and I about 4.5 hours to put it together. We used power tools and are very handy at this type of thing. Power screwdrivers really sped up the process. There are gaps in places in the finished product which no one will likely notice without it being pointed out to them. One piece was slightly damaged but I figured it's nothing my kids won't do within a month anyway. The drawer bottoms are pretty flimsy is my biggest concern. Definitely will need to be careful not to overload the drawers b.c I think it's unlikely they will hold the weight they are rated for. But the desk looks pretty good and for a desk in a box, I would recommend. If you're looking for a legacy piece to hand off to your kids, I'd go for a bit better quality.
Sauder Customer Service Grade A
The product arrived damaged and I ended up calling Sauder directly. They quickly sent out replacement parts. I just needed the lot number and the part number. As for the desk, it is a nice piece. I like the color and the laminate is adequate. The size of the desk is perfect for two screens and a laptop. Width (30") also is a great size to add other things too. The cable management is a little disappointing though. It appears the management was intended for the left side (as you sit at it) and not the right side. For me it did not work out well as I wanted to minimize wires on the desk. Since my outlet was on the right side of the desk, I had to run my power cord through the cable management and then over the desk. I called Sauder to see if there was something I was missing and there was not. I provided the feedback and hopefully they use it to improve their product. I also ordered a matching bookcase from Sauder directly. That manual indicated the product was made in the USA with US and imported materials. This and the customer service is why I would purchase from Sauder.
Great desk
My review is of the desk, not my experience with office depot. Office depot use a third party company to ship. Never again. Anyway let me review the desk.
For a flat pack a surprisingly well finished and sturdy product using quality materials. Assembly is not for the faint hearted, you do need to be a handyman and in possession of an electric driver with a full day to spare. Made a little more difficult by incorrect labeling of the two end panels and incorrectly located holes for the runners of the keyboard drawer. It should be noted if you require more than average leg room the keyboard drawer is best omitted.
Good desk. Massive flat pack operation. Seriously suggest that unless you consider yourself quite handy then you either avoid or budget to get an airy asker or similar to do it.
