Does the backing have to be put on for structural integrity or looks, cables for all the peripherals I have to attach are easier to manage w open back

I DID have it on so I'm not sure how it would look, but I'm guessing it would look ok. You do have the ability to cut the back to be as open as much as you need. It's cardboard. I will caution anyone that while it was sturdy in that it didn't lean or move, it is, like any furniture that needs home assembly, difficult to move and keep the integrity of the construction. I would purchase this again if I needed to.

I had to attach for structural integrity. The unit was a little wobbly from side to side without the backing. Also it looks so much more professional. I enlarged some of thelower holes and used an 8 unit plug in and managed all the wires and cords nicely and out of sight

The panel in the back does a great job of hiding the cables. With the black glass shelving and back panel. The cables blend in nicely behind this stand.

No. The back is a "solid" panel (actually several panels that join together), and the front is open as seen in the picture.

The back is finished but has openings for T.V. cable use. Very well made piece of furniture but only looks good with back up against a wall or window. We were very, very pleased with this piece.

Yes, there is access holes on the back of the desk for cables... The finish is a beautiful well done stained and sealed wood. Mine is dark brown (Walnut colored). I shopped for a desk for months looking, and this is the only one that is not too huge, had all the features, and yet wasn't a piece of crap laminate finish, like Sauder and some others... No pressed wood. Heavy, but worth the price!

Four screws that attach to the back side of the case. Then attach all the power cables to the mb and peripherals.

Not really. I used tie wraps to secure the cables in the back of the TV.The TV is actually about 7 inches from the wall when it is pushed back. That said, it stills looks good and functions well.

Yes, but it is super easy to do. I'm not used to assembling furniture, but the instructions are easy to understand. I had no trouble with the back staying on or any other part of it. I did buy more substantial hardware at Lowes.

No. The back panel serves to provide overall strength to the cabinet. Further, it prevents the wall and wires behind the cabinet from being seen from the front.

I think u need the back panel to keep it steady but it is thin so u can probably cut spaces out for cords and ventilation.

Understand you want to attach to underside of table rather than vertical on back side. See no reason why not. The adhesive attachment seems very good hoer dr I would suggest a few small screws as well. I just that on my install. If you just have one or two cables probably not an issue, but if you have more I would suggest the screws, just make sure they are short enough not to penetrate the top.

Yes there are bthere is a backing that i must put on the back of the unit and it has holes in it for all your wires!

In theory, no, but it is easy to unscrew the back if you are good at that stuff and then it's pretty much, just pop a new one in. In any event, a computer tech shouldn't have much trouble replacing it.

Yes, it does. From the description, "Included cables are color-coded to match the front buttons and back panel for trouble-free installation". It's very easy to put together.

The back is finished except for the piece where the computer tower goes. That part comes with a cardboard backing that has to be nailed in, with the little pop out holes for wires. I didn't use that backing as it's flimsy and the nails literally were breaking as we tacked them in. However, I put the desk against the wall. So if you're able to line up the carboard correctly (the fit of it wasn't great either), and don't mind the cardboard tower area back--it's colored to match the desk--you should be okay to have the back showing.

You need to attach with supplied nails to the two sides.....back of the drawers and other enclosed portion for the computer tower...... the firm cardboard back that matches the wood finishThe rest is open. The wood slats(9modesty panels) are finished.
