Stand Steady X-Elite Pro Corner Standing Desk | 40 Inch Corner Sit to Stand Desk Converter Ideal for Cubicles and L Shaped Desks! Easy Height-Adjustable and Fully Assembled!

I really like this large variable desk. Recommend you cut out the desktop dimensions on a piece of cardboard and place it where the unit will sit. This will allow you to make sure your space will fit this very large desk. I use a 17-inch laptop plus a 24-inch monitor with a keyboard and mouse. It fits all, and I still have room for coffee cup and my forearms. I use mostly at full height where I can rest my arms on the very smooth surface. Very steady even with all of the weight and I like the smooth surface. Be aware that the desks with the small lip on the edge can be an irritant to your forearms. The smooth and diminishing edge taper on this one makes it really comfortable. Lifting and lowering is fairly easy if you take your time. I expect this to be a part of my office for many years. Hope the quality is built to last.

The desk space this provides is tough to beat. For reference, the main screen in the picture is a massive 35" wide monitor, next to a 13" MacBook Pro. This is a corner desk, but I turned the desk 180 degrees to take advantage of the larger area in the "front" of the desk. Works great. Seems very sturdy. I was a bit worried about the large monitor and weight of my accessories. No issues. The only reason it doesn't get a perfect score is the raising & lowering of the desk. Other reviews have mentioned the same. Lowering is actually quite easy. Raising the desk takes some effort. Especially if you're near the recommended weight limit as I am. The first few inches of lifting can be a strain before the pumps kick in. From there it a very easy lift. **This may be a standard limitation with all standing desks with the raising/lower difficulty. If it is, I'll raise my rating to 5 starts. It really is a quality/sturdy desk otherwise. ** It's fine for me as I plan to keep the desk raised all day, but if you plan on adjusting from sitting to standing multiple times per day, I could see it getting cumbersome. I'd consider their electric model if that's the case. Overall, very happy with the purchase for my needs.

I love this desk! It is super easy to adjust and makes it a breeze to adjust the height from sitting to standing. It does require two hands to lift, but the non-lever side just needs a little help when lifting and lowering. It is a great value and completely stable, super easy to use.

This is a quality, sturdy rising desk topper. But no joke, it is heavy! It took 2 people to put it on my desk. Although I can lift it up, I have to really brace myself to get that bit of momentum you need for the hydrolic to kick in. If you aren’t very strong (I’m a 5’3” woman, so you don’t have to be crazy strong), this might not be for you. However, it’s got my monitor, several desk accessories, keyboard, and usually a book to two on it, and it is sturdy. It’s also large enough to hold all of that plus space for a notebook, writing materials to take notes during a meeting with room to spare, and that’s what I was looking for. If everything I need to work doesn’t rise up together, I can’t really work standing up. Great purchase.

Didn't get to this up right away. So, my return period lapsed before I got a chance to break it out of the box and put it to use. Bit of warning to those considering this. Make sure you use super light monitors! And you'll probably not want to put much stuff on top of this desk because guess what? You'll add more weight to what you need to pull up. Yep, getting this to lift up is not an easy task. I'm using two 27" Asus Monitors, along with a keyboard and mouse, and it's quite a workout trying to raise this. The hydraulics(?) or air shocks that assist in lifting this desk doesn't work. I was expecting it to spring upwards when you pull the lever to release the locks, but it doesn't. You have to put a lot of elbow grease into it, in order to initiate upward movement. Oh, and when lowering, I have to hold onto the desk to slowly lower it. Otherwise, it slams down into my table. Heavens forbid someone has their hands underneath... this desk doesn't lower slowly at all! I'm not sure if the one I receive is defective, but it's quite a struggle just to lift two monitors along with this desk. It's so bad, I don't even feel like raising it up anymore. It was the best bang for the buck at the time, but I come to find out, there's mechanical ones that raise and lower with a push of a button for similar price now. Oh well, gonna donate this dead weight to charity. It's functionally useless to me.
