I'm not connecting this to any desk. Are both sides of the cabinet finished? Can I remove the 2 brackets on rt side of unit?

Yes, both sides of this storage desk are finished. The only brackets which exist are located on the inner sides both right and left which are sliders which holds the drawers in place and can be removed but you will render the desk useless as drawers will not operate.

Yes, both sides of cabinet are finished. I do not connect to anything either. The cabinet is in the bedroom and looks fine as a separate piece of furniture. It fits my needs completely and I like the looks of the cabinet. I am not completely sure what you mean about the 2 brackets on the right side of unit. However, there are two, basically plastic, inserts into each side of the unit. They insert into a fitted whole in the upper back of each side panel. I suppose they provide for the connectivity if one were to add on to the cabinet. They are not that noticeable to the eye and do not distract from the looks of the unit as a piece of furniture. At least that is my opinion (a male).

It is finished on both sides, so you'll be fine. However, it is not very stable (see the small base in the pic?), so I'd recommend you at least try to see what it looks like without it (so first shelf directly on the floor). I only realized the issue after I had finished the installation.... so I kept it upside down! (it's 'modern' design, right? Well, I made it even more 'modern'), all good, looks as nice as the pic, no issues!

Elaine, The Robern cabinet in question is ambidextrous. Just flip the bad boy around so the door is on the side you want. No need to remove the door. The installation of the shelves will not be effected. Good luck.

No I think corner is supported by both ends, you can switch ends around that's it! Nice desk though, worked for my needs!!

Not 100% sure, but you may have installed the shelf backwards. The instructions for this thing are not clear at all. See if maybe the side panels were put in backwards too.

If your talking about the desk itself has it is finished if your talking about the computer cabinet the drawer side is only finished with a partical board in the backi

All the holes to put screws are from the side. The top of the brackets go on the desk itself, and then we cut and stained a piece of wood to match the desk and mounted it to the slides and the keyboard rests on it.

The 2 side shelves are detachable. You have to assemble it when it arrives so you could leave them off if you like

Hello, Yes you can take off the cpu shelf. You do not need to attach the shelf when putting the desk together.

Hi there ... no, I agree with what the others have said; it's meant to be assembled only this one way. I would also mention that the drawers are not very easy to reach (especially the bottom one), so just put things in there that you don't have to access very often. :) All in all, though, I like the desk, and think it's a good value for the money.

The sides are not finished. This model is made for in cabinet installation only. Electrical and plumbing exposed.

Chris. It has a back panel that you attach to the back that is the same color as the top of the desk. Just remember when you attach it to attach with colored side out. I made the mistake of attaching backwards and you cannot remove. Also, alittle FYI where the hard drive sits in the desk I had to remove the back panel. It was getting too hot and I did not like leaving the front of the cabinet open. I love the desk and all the pieces I got to match it.

It is separate from the structure and dose not attach. Furthermore you can choose which side the keyboard drawer is on, Because the 2 tables are only connected by the arch in the middle.

Thank you, but what about just the desk portion (floor to desk)? I appreciate the help. :)

I put it together 4 years ago. The left side with the door, the back was made of that hard cardboard, I don't think it will finish well. the desk is against two corners so I can't see the back.Sorry.
