What's the difference between a left-hand and right-hand L-shaped desk?

Hand orientation describes which side the return panel extends when you are seated at the main desk looking toward the wall. On a left-hand desk, the return extends to your left; on a right-hand desk, it extends to your right. Stand in your room corner, decide which wall the main surface runs along — the return takes the adjacent wall. Getting this wrong is one of the most common ordering mistakes. At OfficeFurniture2go.com, our team confirms hand orientation on every order — call 1-800-460-0858 if you are unsure.
