L Shaped Standing Desk with Keyboard

I am really happy with this desk. I have an ultra wide monitor that I switch between my personal pc and work laptop and everything was super cramped on my old desk. Now there is plenty of table top space for all my needs.The worktop is particle board with a textured black ‘carbon fiber’ veneer. The worktop does come in 2 parts so there is a visible seam where they meet. It doesn’t really bother me, but if it would bother you the desk comes with a huge ‘gaming desk’ branded mouse/desk pad which would cover that seam. Since I’m using a keyboard tray I didn’t end up using the giant pad. Also I don’t like the branding anyway.I added on the eureka cpu holder and the tilting keyboard tray from Stand Steady. Eureka also makes a tilting keyboard but it has obvious branding which is why I ordered from stand steady (since theirs is just plain black). These two add ons work together to make the desk super functional and ergonomic. I think the lowest desk height would be too tall for a short person to comfortably type while sitting with out the under desk tray. With the desk tray it is perfect. I also added an underdesk headphone holder with usb plugs.As some other reviewers stated the desk does wobble a little bit at the highest setting, but I am short anyways so I really only had it at max height temporarily to test it out. At my typical standing and sitting height it is solid. I did order casters to replace the stock feet but I didn’t realize that there are 5 feet and I only ordered 4 casters, so I have to wait for another caster to arrive then I will swap them out.I put 4 stars under assembly because while the manufacturer has done a good job with providing instructions/parts/etc the process is moderately difficult. There are some heavy parts that need to be handled and the desk itself is quite heavy, making the task a two person job. The manufacturer provides a simple screwdriver and Allen key but we just used our own tools (ratcheting screwdriver, powered drill) to make the job easier. I would not recommend anyone try and build this desk alone, and I think this would be a tough build for anyone who can’t lift 50 lbs or with limited experience assembling furniture.The only functional thing that is missing is a built in power strip. I ended up taping a power strip to the leg of the desk and then plugging the desk into the power strip and the power strip into the wall and couldn’t help thinking that a built in power strip would have been more convenient, since the desk has to be plugged in anyways.

Assembly is a pain in the rear but that's the case for any standing desk you purchase. Directions were really well done and it didn't take too long. I'm VERY happy with the desk so far. Lots of surface area and the motor works well. It also looks really nice. It doesn't have any storage (draws) or power which some desks have. But for the price, it's really nice and I'd recommend it.

The desk is hefty, sturdy, and heavy. It took me a couple of hours to build by myself, but it was worth the time. Once I got it built up and plugged in, it was working as expected, and it looks as advertised. Huge plus points in my book.Just a few caveats to anyone thinking of getting this: when assembling the thing, give yourself ample space. Because it gets heavier and heavier as you add pieces in, you will want to the room to move it about to make it easier for you place it where you want it to be in your room. Another thing to be aware is that the parts are not labeled, save for the screws which are packed in plastic. When you read the manual, you will see that each part has a designated code, but the part itself will not have the code in question. If you're one of those people who find it hard to match things with what's printed; be forewarned. Another thing to note is that certain parts have to be assembled a certain way. The manual would show you what you should be seeing when you assemble it or in which direction it should be slotted, but some of the pictures can get a tad tiny. If you find it difficult to see small arrows and those sorts of things, it's better to get your glasses ready or have someone to look at it for you.Asides from those, this desk is fantastic. As I just bought this recently, I will update on any problems I encounter. But as far as it is right now, it looks like it won't be failing me for a long while.
