Solid desk at a great price
I’m really happy with this purchase. Usually, when I go for budget furniture, I end up with something that's pretty flimsy. But this desk is surprisingly nice—the wooden shelves are sturdy and the whole setup feels well-built. Assembly was a breeze; everything lined up perfectly, no issues with the screws or anything. Overall, I’m satisfied with my standing desk!

After reading up on the negative effects of sitting too much, I realized I had to make some changes. Like many people, I spend long days at my desk. I did my homework on stand-up stations and ended up choosing this one from Hawkins Woodshop. It’s manually adjustable, which works just fine for me since I don’t need fancy features. Setting it up was straightforward, and I was able to adjust it to the right height for my work. I can stand for a while and then take breaks to sit when needed. This workstation is solid and sturdy, plus it rolls around easily thanks to the wheels. Assembly was quick enough. I have a 27-inch flat-screen monitor on top and there’s plenty of space for my keyboard and mouse. I didn’t even bother with the slide-out keyboard shelf. My laptop fits perfectly on the shelf below. I’m glad I made this investment because I know it will save me from bigger medical costs later. One piece of advice: it takes time to get used to standing for longer periods if you're not used to it. Be sure to grab a good anti-fatigue mat to help out. I found a great one from Hawkins Woodshop that has really helped my comfort when standing.

Solid standing desk
I picked this desk up from Hawkins Woodshop, and although the package showed some wear and tear, the packing was top-notch—the desk itself arrived in perfect condition. Putting it together was easier than I expected for a standing desk. The instructions were straightforward, and everything I needed was in the box, so I managed to get it set up by myself in about an hour. It's adjustable, but I will say, once you lock it in place, it can be tough to readjust. That said, it's sturdy and feels solid. Overall, I'm pleased with this desk—the best deal I've found at this price!

Quick delivery and met my expectations
I like to work while standing at my computer, and at 6'3", I had to adjust the desk to its highest setting to get the height I need. I think most average to slightly taller folks will find this desk just right. The keyboard drawer is handy; I actually use it for my WACOM drawing tablet while keeping my keyboard on the main surface with my iMac. Plus, there are two shelves underneath for my printer and router, which is really convenient. One suggestion would be to add a back cover to hide the cables, as I prefer my setup facing the room and those cables tend to get a bit messy. I checked out SAFCO's site and saw some other nice workstations but they were way more expensive. Overall, I'm happy with what I paid for this desk.

I've looked into a lot of standing desks and tried risers, but I always end up coming back to this one. It really gives you great value for what you pay. I bought two—one for my home office and one for my workplace. A few coworkers have followed suit and purchased this desk because it's so practical. The height adjustment is smooth, it's sturdy, and the materials feel solid. The wheels move easily and lock in place, which is a big plus. It's spacious enough for keeping books and folders close while you work, and there's room for other reference materials on the shelves underneath. I've been using it for over a year now, about five hours a day, and it still looks just as good as it did when I first got it.
