Are all the edges and sides finished? For example, could the desk be turned so the shelf is on a right side wall?

All of the visible edges and sides are finished - the unfinished stuff is covered up very well by finished stuff.

yes it is finished. Looks just like the sides. I have mine turned to the side also.

The shelves are not assembled but inserted after the desk is mounted.The sides of the shelves are assembled during construction and are part of the desk frame. There may be room for a tower if it is not too large.

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

The cabinet is completely finished on all sides, just remember that YOU have to put it together. It's not that hard if you follow the directions, just having to do... hope that helps.

Yes, and the holes for the screws are hidden as well by a thin vinyl coating on the desk that you normally have to pierce with screws. So if you do not add the shelf it won't look weird. It's a complicated desk to put together but overall VERY good.

There are holes on the sides almost all the way down so all you would have to dois get some of the shelf pins and then the actual shelf. Should not be difficult. Bythe way we love the cabinet!

this piece is finished except for the back of the file drawers and the other corner shelf part. there is a solid back that runs from one corner to the next but the shelf section that has a door and the other end that has the small and larger drawers has cardboard on the back? Doesn't make sense to me they made the rest of it solid except for the two end sections? My husband and I did not like that part but it is a nice desk and we kept it.

Hi Kayla,Honestly i do not own this desk. when i ordered it i thought it was the whole thing but, it was just a corner piece and i returned it. i apologise for not being able to assist you better. Good luck.

it's finished on all sides and that's what i originally intended the shelf for.

Yes it finished on the back and all sides. You can have it in the center of a room. You can also change the side piece to the left or right whenever you decide to change the desk around. I love it and get lots of compliments

In my case, the back side is partially unfinished. The back boards below the desk top (the area that the drawer in front occupies) is smooth particle board with no wood veneer. It's odd though, because the side of the boards facing the underside of the desk do have wood grain to them. So your knees, when seated at the desk see wood grain, but someone standing behind the desk wood see particle board. Maybe you could flip those boards around when you assemble (or perhaps i put them in backwards by accident). Otherwise it's a decent looking desk. I've used mine for years.

Yes.....The desk has a finished front. BE prepared for the assembly of this desk !! It took 2 men 3hrs to put it together.

Yes, it is finished on all sides where there is wood but it is open in the middle so you can see straight through. I hope that answers your question. It actually looks nice but the file drawer is useless. It will only fit about a dozen files. The description says "large file drawer" and that is not the case. ;-(

Yes, the front is finished. This is a great desk, very sturdy and well worth the price.

Yes, the table is fully finished on the back and looks fine from all sides. It functions great as a chairside table -- just as in the picture.

Unfortunately not, I have been looking for something I could use for shelves. But I'm very picky. The desk and hutch are very nice though!!!
