Is this desk difficult to install?

Assembly was pretty easy. It took me about an hour to completely set up. I love it!

Yes, the back of the desk and the hutch each has the same black finish as what is shown in the picture. I had no trouble with assembly and although the desktop is heavy, I managed to get it upright by myself. I recommend that assembly take place on the flattened cardboard box to avoid scatching either the furniture or your floor.

There is some minor assembly but nothing too difficult. If you're comfortable reading and following directions you will be fine. If not ask a friend to help.

from memory i think it has to be installed as per picture and instructions. If you have not already bought this desk i would recommend against buying it. Although it is a good looking desk, anytime you bump into it with your chair or anything else, the black covering will chip and come away. I really thought i had found a solid desk, but cheap build quaility, even the heavy top chips!!! Stay away and spend your money on something else.....

It installs very easy. Do you have any expeareance with PC work. All you have to do with most desk tops is remove the side of the PC that gives you access to the inter workings and find a empty PCI card slot. Then make sure the new card pin configuration matches prior to attempting to install. It is also important to make sure that you do not have what is called a "Book Case PC " as this takes a special size card which is narrower than the "StandardPc". I hope this helps.

I bought the desk and it is pretty sturdy. as for installing your own keyboard tray you would need to drill your own holes

You have to assemble every part of the desk, down to every screw.It wasn't hard at all to put together with very simple instructions. At least to me but I also can do heavy work on car engines to me.Also keep in mind that the center area where the monitor is at is for a small monitor like I think maybe no bigger than 15 inch maybe 16 inch if your lucky. Mine is 17 and it doesn't fit in between the 2 shelves. Hope I was of help to you. It's a great desk I gave mine to a friend and he loves it and i bought a different kind.

This desk comes flatpacked. Expect to spend about 1.5 hours putting it together. That's approximately how long it took me with a 2 year old literally hanging on my back, and 'helping' daddy put it together. The desk is very sturdy once assembled and has had many compliments.

I didn't have any problems putting it together. Followed the directions and had it done in about 2 hours. The cabinet looks very nice and am using it as a printer stand, would definetly buy more from this company in the future.

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.

No! It's just a cheap particle board, dark brown like the rest of the desk, but doesn't look very pleasing at all... Plus has holes for the cables... meant to be up against the wall.

it is fairly assemble. just read the manual patiently. I did just myself. And if you don`t want the small top shelf installed,do`nt poke the hole. and I did not install the cd rack. I made it as a book shelf. it`s up to u how u wanna do it but it`s a very nice looking desk. good luck assembling.

There is assembly required. The head, arms, legs and base supports all need to be installed. I wouldn't say it was difficult, just take your time so you don't have a squeeky part :-)

My husband installed mine and I love it. My desk top is just a little over an inch but I think you could use shorter screws if the ones that come with it are too long.

It can't be. Its designed to fit together in only one way. The top part rests on the lower portion and lines up with 4 screw holes. That being said I really do love this desk (although it did take 3 of us 3 hours to put it together).

I strongly suggest that you follow the instructions. The assembly is very straight forward and requires about a half hour. There are no really small parts and the desk fits together very well.

My husband assembled it, don't think it was difficult, just takes a while. Just make sure you have all the right tools & you should be fine. I don't have instructions, if not I would pass them down to you. You won't be sorry if you buy this piece, looks great for the price!
