Can the rolling desk be removed from the main desk? I'm trying t pull it out, but it seems fixed.

When you first get the desk, it needs to be assembled. You do not have to install the rolling part of the desk. However it only has two front legs no back legs so it will not stand alone.

Dear Lakshmi,That happened to me at one point. Try checking the the small latches on the wheels. Whether they are up or down determines if the wheels are locked in place or mobile. I hope that helps.

It cannot be removed by rolling it out. It needs to be disassembled to remove it (if someone has already assembled it in). I can see why you would want to do it..if you are tall or like sitting on a higher chair, there isn't too much knee room under there if the rolling part is assembled in.

No it cant stand alone it on a track plus the pull out desk only has two legs to stand on.

No, it is attached just like a drawer. Even if it could come out it would only have 2 legs to stand on.

From looking at the picture I, too, thought that this could be two separate pieces, but it can't be. The smaller desk is on a track to pull forward, but can't be separated.

It is not attached to the desk itself and can be removed or placed anywhere.

There really is no way to move it to the other side. Sauder does not recommend that you leave off the part all together. The desk has not been tested without it.

It is a little awkward to keep rolling out of the way. I put a desk over it and there are no handles at the end to do the lifting. I would also have to unplug it to keep moving it, because of where my plug is located. Hope that helps!

When using this for over a year I have not tried to remove the center shelf. I recently got a new HP printer. The cart shaked so much when the printer was working that I took of the wheels. I do not find the cartwheels

Yes - I have it arranged the opposite way. A day or so before you setup, do a full inspection of all of the pieces - it will be time consuming, but will give you time to request replacements. Two of the very large pieces on mine were cracked (one is on the top surface). It really takes away from the value of this desk, but not much you can do once in the heat of putting the monster together. It would be very difficult to take apart to replace, if you waited for them to send a replacement.

It is not removable by design; however, the handle can be folded flat, rather than protruding at a 90° angle. I have used the desk for a year and have not found it to be a nuisance or troublesome.

Yep, it's just a foam mat so you can move it aside easily. It is too high for a chair to roll over, so you will need to physically move it away from your desk.

Not really. I looked at ours and it would slide off because of the screws and welds holding it on. The only way to remove it would be to take the screws out. Your meter is also mounted on the desk part and there wouldn't be anyplace else to put it, that I can see. Hope this helps.

I do not think there is a way to remove it without damaging the side table assembly; though I do not know for sure. It has never gotten in my way for me to consider checking if it can be removed.

Yes you can make it swing out of the way. I would measure it but the back is inaccessible since I have installed it on my workstation. It will take a pretty thick desk to make it unusable. Any normal desk should be fine. minimum thickness is whatever you want providing the desk is capable of holding the weight. It is basically a C- clamp. Hope this helps.

Yes, the storage bin can be rolled away entirely. It is not attatched to any part of the desk. It would be easy enough to reposition seating without the bin in the way, so wouldn't be a problem sideways. (I have an image posted here where you can see the storage bin rolled out.)

The desk could be put together without the roll out keyboard. The pull out is just a matter of putting a rail on each side of the cart and on each side of the board. You might want it even if you don't want it for the keyboard. It would be a nice place to keep papers you are working on.

The center of disk can be removed as it has screws that hold it in place. You could replace it with a different material if the screw hold lined up. This would make it behave more like a soft box I guess.

yes, the self above the tower opening can be taken out. but there would not be any support for the main self. This is because the main self is supported by four pegs (see photo) I wouldn't recommended to modify. For your purpose you should buy a different desk. I hope this helps.

My desk top is a solid slab so my problem was attaching it from underneath, not screws stripping. HOWEVER the side braces/tracks have now bowed outward causing one side to leave the track and I now have to have a huge clip holding it together. The cause? As far as I can tell it was resting my hand on the mouse/putting weight on it.

You could put it level with the rest of the desk. Just take out the extensions for it.
