Sturdy and high quality desk at a great price!
If I could give this a half star, I’d say it’s a solid 4.5, but it definitely leans more toward 5. After having a bad experience with a cheaper desk, I decided to invest a little more this time. I was looking for a desk with thick panels, and this one is the thickest I found at about 1.3 inches. My worries about other desks bending under the weight of my large monitor are gone. The box was a decent size, light enough for me to manage on my own. The particle board is lightweight but doesn’t feel cheap. My only minor issue is that the center panel has the wood grain running horizontally, while the sides are vertical. Other than that, I’m happy with it. The wood grain looks nice, and the desk legs are heavy duty. The motor runs quietly and moves smoothly. You can tell this desk is high quality from the way it was packed; they took care to protect the edges and corners. There were zero damages or flaws. It took about an hour and a half to put together, but the sturdiness makes it worth the time—especially since it holds a lot of electronics. The height adjustment works perfectly, and the way it connects to the power strip is clever. I initially thought it would only get 4 stars because of the short power cable, but once I got it all set up, I was blown away. Just get the wood grain consistent, and it’d be. The price is too, and the shipping was quick—just 3 days for such a heavy package. I’d recommend this desk and Hawkins Woodshop to anyone!

Awesome Desks!!
I picked up two of these desks. They were a bit tricky to assemble, but the instructions were super clear, and the quality turned out to be even better than I expected! The lowest height isn’t quite low enough for my recliner, but that’s more about my chair than the desk. I was surprised by how quiet they are when changing the height—quieter than the adjustable desks at my office. They don't wobble or bend at the seams, and they’ve been for my needs. Sure, they are on the pricier side, but you can tell why; the quality is worth it. If I had to nitpick, I’d say the desk surface shows smudges easily, but a large mouse pad solves that issue, so it’s not a big deal. Overall, I’d rate these a 10/10!

This is a solid product that was easy to put together. I was really impressed with the quality considering the price. The instructions were straightforward, and all the parts had a nice finish. They even included some extra screws, which was a nice touch. While the three sections aren’t solid wood, they look great and function well. The design is clever, and I managed to build it by myself, though they do recommend having a second person to help. Overall, it’s a great value for anyone with basic skills who pays attention.

Great Desks! Sturdy, Quiet, and Comfortable!
We’re really happy with these desks! They went together easily, and they function well. The design is nice, and they fit perfectly in our home office. They easily accommodate three 24" monitors, a laptop, and all the accessories. Recommend getting an anti-fatigue mat for added comfort while standing. The reset feature is useful for adjusting the height; we found ourselves setting it incorrectly at first. Assembly took us about 45 minutes for the first desk (used our own tools since the ones included didn’t last) and only about half an hour for the second one. They operate quietly, look great, and are spacious enough for everything we need.

This is a pretty easy item to put together and the quality surprised me for the price. The instructions were straightforward, and the finish on all the pieces is solid and looks nice. They even included some extra screws, which is a nice touch. Although the three sections aren't solid wood, they're well done and look good. It's well-designed and can be put together by one person, though they recommend having two. Overall, I think it’s a great value for anyone with some basic skills who takes their time.

Awesome Desks! Sturdy, Quiet, and Comfortable!
These desks are fantastic! Easy to put together and they function well. We're impressed with their size and performance. Working from home, we can fit 3 - 24" monitors, a laptop, and all our accessories perfectly. I do recommend getting an anti-fatigue mat to go with the desk. The reset feature is handy for adjusting height settings since you might accidentally set it wrong the first time. It took my wife and me roughly 45 minutes to set up the first desk (using our own tools since theirs broke quickly), and just about 30 minutes for the second one. They operate quietly, look great, and have plenty of space for all our devices.

Great Desks!
I bought two of these desks and, while putting them together took a bit of effort, the instructions were pretty straightforward. The quality of the desks actually surprised me! The lowest setting isn’t quite low enough for me since I’m using a recliner instead of a regular chair. One thing I really like is how quiet they are when adjusting the height—way quieter than the desks I use at work, which impressed me a lot. They’re solid and don’t wobble at the joints, making them for my needs. Yes, they are pricey, but you can tell why—you do get what you pay for. The only downside is that the desktop shows smudges easily, but using a large mouse pad fixes that without affecting the quality overall. I'd rate these a solid 10/10!

Solid Desk and Easy Assembly
This desk is really solid for the size! Putting it together took a little while, but I managed on my own without any help, as long as I was careful with the weight. The metal parts and electronics are the heaviest, but the top has a nice wood-like finish that feels sturdy. It's stable, although moving it can take some effort, especially on carpet.
