What is the weight capacity of a U-shaped desk?

Commercial U-shaped desk components are typically rated for 150–200 lbs per surface panel — combined 450–600 lbs for a three-panel assembly. Verify the per-panel rating, not just the total, and avoid concentrating heavy loads at junction connectors. Steel-frame U-desks consistently outperform wood-frame configurations in weight-bearing capacity. At OfficeFurniture2go.com, all product specs include per-panel weight ratings — call 1-800-460-0858.
