How is a U-shaped desk different from a systems furniture workstation?

The U-shaped desk vs. systems furniture distinction is fundamental to commercial furniture specification at OfficeFurniture2go.com. U-desks are casegoods — freestanding furniture units. Systems furniture (Teknion, Steelcase, Herman Miller panel systems) mounts work surfaces to panel frames and supports open-plan deployments. U-desks don't require a dealer-certified installation team; systems furniture almost always does. For private offices, U-desks are typically faster to specify, less expensive, and easier to reconfigure. Call 1-800-460-0858 if you're evaluating both options.
