Setup and Assembly
Assembly of the Realspace Magellan Corner Computer Desk is required. For optimal results and safety, it is recommended that two people perform the assembly. A screwdriver is the primary tool required; please note that assembly tools are not included with the product.
Due to the product's weight and size (approximately 125 pounds), handling by more than one person is necessary. It is strongly advised to assemble the desk in its intended final location. The corner piece attachment may not be designed for frequent relocation, and moving the assembled desk can be challenging.
For professional in-home assembly services, you may contact certified and insured assemblers at 866-388-4350.

Care and Maintenance
Your Realspace Magellan Corner Computer Desk is constructed from MDF with a durable laminate finish. To maintain its appearance and extend its lifespan, follow these simple care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Wipe surfaces regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or polishes that may damage the laminate finish.
- Spills: Clean up spills immediately to prevent moisture from penetrating the laminate and MDF.
- Heat and Moisture: Protect the desk surface from direct heat and excessive moisture. Use coasters for beverages and heat pads for hot items.
- Sunlight: Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause fading or discoloration of the finish over time.
Troubleshooting
Desk Stability and Movement
Issue: The desk feels unstable or is difficult to move after assembly, particularly the corner section.
Solution: The Realspace Magellan Corner Computer Desk is designed for stationary use once assembled. The connection points, especially for the corner piece, are not intended for frequent disassembly or relocation. To prevent damage or instability, assemble the desk in its final desired position. If relocation is absolutely necessary, exercise extreme caution and consider partially disassembling the unit to reduce stress on joints.
