I've just ordered these, so I'd be interested in any opinions. (Ideally ones that validate my decision to purchase, let's be honest.)



Haha.

My wife got one for herself and we were impressed enough that I got one as well a week later.

It’s been about 2 months and they are doing excellently.

Honestly, I was surprised by the weight and sturdiness for the cost (under $400).

4 memory positions and a very decent vertical range (it goes higher than I would find useful being 5’8” tall, although I wish it went slightly lower than its current lower limit).

It has 4 auto memory positions that is convenient since we occasionally swap desks, so it holds both our standing and sitting positions.

I honestly have no complaints.

I found the accessories a little annoying though. The swivel drawer accessory wanted me to drill a hole, which I was not comfortable doing in the desk at all. So I returned that. I can’t speak to how useful it would have been. The cable holding undercarriage is excellent to hide all the wires, etc, but it sits really close to the desk, so it’s a little difficult to maneuver stuff in there, especially since I’m using it to hold my spike guard and have all the plugs plug into it. But once I managed to get everything plugged in it looks great.

So my wife and I are huge fans so far. I’m not sure how good it will be a few years from now, but I have no reason to believe it won’t last and be excellent.

So much so I am considering buying their ergonomic chairs as well, once this whole pandemic situation clears up a bit.


Thanks, really useful.
