Sauder Edge Water L-Shaped Corner Desk with Storage Drawers and Open Shelf, in Chalked Chestnut

The media could not be loaded.  I put this desk together by myself (I’m 25 female and not very strong lol) it took me a total of 3 days with breaks of course. Everything lined up perfectly and the directions were easy to follow! Patience is key. It turned out perfect and is exactly what I wanted, would definitely recommend!

I am beyond happy with this desk and very glad I took the chance on it. It was not difficult to put together and since I managed to put it together by myself without any assistance whatsoever, I can verify that the directions were well written and easy to follow along with. The key of course is (1) read the directions (2) follow them precisely and (3) take the time to sort your parts out in the order they are needed before starting the project.The desk itself is clean, neat, sturdy and attractive. It houses both my stand monitors, my laptop, my scanner/printer and at times my two cats who consider this just more space for them to claim. There is more than enough room on the desk left to work for those tasks that are not done on my computer. The file drawer and the small storage drawer are both sturdy and operate smoothly.If you're like me and have searched both online and off for a quality desk that doesn't break the bank, I give this one my total stamp of approval.

If you have an entire day and a small army to help assemble this, then this is the desk for you! Setting this up rivaled Ikea furniture. Even some of the panels were minorly damaged when they arrived which is annoying. It fits my space well, and the color is great. I definitely am going to keep it. It was just quite a process to get it together, and then to have some damaged pieces was extra frustrating.

Desk is well built and holds up well.

I absolutely love this desk for working at home. It’s very attractive and sturdier than I had expected. It took about 4 straight hrs for my husband to assemble this so it’s a lot of work and a lot of pieces, but it was worth it! My only complaints are that I can’t get the drawers to adjust so that both open, no matter how much “tweaking” my husband and I do, no directions in the manufacture instructions either. So I pretty much just have a working top drawer and no file drawer. Also, there are some desk pieces were the wood doesn’t meet all the way, but luckily it more underneath and not that visible. Def worth the price; just need to figure out how to get these drawers to align.

I was looking for a desk with more space so when I am working for home, I have more room to work. The color and reviews on this desk helped me with my purchase! I do agree with other reviewers this is very time consuming to assemble. Took me and another person a little over 4 hours to put it together. Some of the instructions were not very clear, but if you take your time and look at the pictures you will figure it out! After it was all complete, I was very happy with my purchase! Desk is a beautiful color, sturdy, and a great addition to my space! There is only one small dent in the product which kinda bothers me because its right where I sit and look at it, but not something that's going to make me go through the hassle of returning it. Box is very heavy! So make sure you have someone help you get the box in the house too!

What a job to assemble this! Phew! It took my husband and I around 6 hours. If you don’t have patience or someone to help you, pass on this.I believe there are about 23 steps in the assembly and the top drawer was especially problematic to slide onto the track. The outer cover for the file drawer is secured by only one screw and it sometimes jiggles which is annoying. Other than that the one other con for me was putting on the desk top. It was so hard to line up the screws and holes I wanted to toss the darn thing.HOWEVER once you get through the pain of assembly it is beautiful and spacious. It is also sturdy (except for the jiggly file drawer). I’ve been WFH since onset of Covid and I wanted to create the same work atmosphere I’m used to while in the office. I really love the desk and bought the matching cabinet afterwards which I use to house my mini fridge. My job will have a hard time getting me back to the office.

A 2-3hr assembly. There's a huge corner of 1'x1'x3' space that is just blocked off by the desk leg panels making it kind of wasted dust crawl space. The desk itself looks nice, but there are cheaper versions simpler to build as big. The drawers are working well and do not slide open by gravity which was a concern of mine. Once assembled the desk is a bit mammoth to reposition and shims don't really work well to keep it leveled in my carpeted office. I put a black metal hydraulic raisable computer desk on top of it and I kind of regret not sticking with that aesthetic. Dissembling the desk will be a headache in the future because of so many pinlock connections and in not simple consistent pattern of assembly. Simple style desk costs extra for extra effort of assembly. Relatively sturdy. Drawer is a little in the way of potential workspace. Only L's one way.
