What are common complaints about executive desks and how are they avoided?

The most common complaints are: insufficient wire management (avoid by specifying desks with grommet holes and cable management channels), drawers that don't slide smoothly after a year (look for full-extension ball-bearing drawer slides), veneer delamination at the edges (quality desks use edge-banding that's mechanically anchored, not just glued), and finish mismatches between pieces (order the entire suite in a single transaction from one production run). Reading reviews specifically about 6–12 month durability is more valuable than first-impression reviews. FindOfficeFurniture.com has executive desks from quality manufacturers — call 888-719-4960.
