Know before you buy
Yes, because of its leaning structure, this desk must be secured to the wall to ensure stability and safety. We recommend using appropriate hardware for your specific wall type.
The desk is in good, functional condition. Please note that there are minor cosmetic blemishes consistent with previous use, as well as a specific shipping crack that does not impact the structural integrity of the piece.
Each of the two fixed shelves is rated for a weight capacity of 40 pounds, making them suitable for books, decorative items, or small office equipment.
While the desk is sturdy, it is designed to be modular. It can be disassembled into smaller components, which makes it much easier to transport compared to a solid, non-modular piece of furniture.
The desk has a footprint of 27.5 inches wide by 20 inches deep. While the total height is 76 inches, the writing surface provides a compact, dedicated area perfect for a laptop or a focused writing setup.
