Flat Packed: These desks are delivered in parts to be built in your room of choice. Their main advantage is in their ease of transport and setup. They are ideal for homes with limited access or where flexibility is needed. Flat packed items tend to be more affordable and offer the satisfaction of a DIY project, which can be a great weekend activity. 
Assembled: Assembled desks arrive ready for immediate use, saving you time and effort. This option is particularly appealing for those who prefer a hassle-free setup or lack the time for DIY assembly. They are usually more robust upon delivery, as they are constructed with professional precision.
