Is it possible to take the wheels off of the desk? I'm aware that they have locks, but I'd prefer to just have it without.

Yes, each wheel is attached to the bottom with 4 wood screws. So just leave out the step in the instructions where is says to attach them.

Unless the wheels can be locked it's unlikely. Even then the furniture/wheels would possibly shift or move within the casters thus defeating the purpose of the casters keeping the furniture in place. If it's possible the best approach would be to remove the wheels. Hope this is helpful.

I'm not sure taking the wheels off would help much but I guess it would still work. I haven't tried that. It might not be as stable and the wooden legs might start to splinter. Guess it's worth a shot.

Not on the desk there isnt. I bought the matching file cabinet that does have a lock on it.

I don't think they're intended to be removable, but you could probably just leave them off. More importantly, the casters on them are lockable, so you can just wheel the stand to where you want it then lock the wheels and it'll stay in place.

yes the wheels are removalable. I use the wheels, when it arrived, part of putting it together was to insert the wheels.

My desk definitely has FOUR wheels. I would have answered three just because the bottom do the desk is shaped almost like a triangle and looks like it has three wheels. I got down on my hands and knees and felt each of the four wheels....love my desk! Very stable and height is adjustable :). Good luck!

Can you lock the wheels, or maybe put a cloth behind the wheels, so that they don't otherwise move?

The wheels do not lock. Although I had no reason to remove them, the wheels should be removable

Wheels are removable, but you may want to cover the bottom of the legs with some sort of cap or stick-on round pad to protect your floors. I would think the drawers would be more stable with the unit against a wall. I ran some black vinyl coated wire up and down the back (from top and bottom shelf supports), to create a backstop for the drawers so they don't slide out the other side.

I am sur it is possible. Check out the parts manual or go online to their website. If you see the wheel available as a part then you know they will come off. You might have to put some furniture protectors under where the wheels were to protect your floor.

No. You do not have to use the wheels, you can make it stationary. They have locks on them to keep the shelf system fromMoving, plus the wheels raise the bottom shelf off the ground for easy cleaning underneath.

The wheel housings are attached with screws to the table. If you were to take them off, the table would have no legs at all. The wheels can be locked if you are concerned the table might move around.

No... The legs have a post on them to hold the coasters. Without the wheels, the table would not sit stable on the floor. The wheels do have locks though.

Hello, Yes you can take off the cpu shelf. You do not need to attach the shelf when putting the desk together.

You can removed them, I decided to take mine off after it was put together because it kept hitting the wall where my desk was position. when you remove it, it will not have any effect on the stability of the chair.

NO, the wheels are attached. After thought, if you want to take out the screws I guess you can take away the wheels. There are two legs you and two wheels on this case. Legs look more challenging to remove.
