Unfortunately, my space didn’t allow me to use this with access to both sides. It is still fantastic, I love my new deskproject table! The bottom drawer has optional hanging file rims and there is a drawer on both sides (so I have rendered one inaccessible by putting it up against a wall...or just made a secret space!). We had originally planned to rent this room out, but with Covid we decided to turn it into my office. This was my best pandi upgrade!
