if you look at the bottom of the legs there are special adjusters that are built in to the desk to fix that little wobble. you do not need to push it against the wall. it is one of, if not the best desks in terms of design. it has everything.

[@lemontable25]

Super cool cable management. A desk that heavy should be thiccc but I like that they kept it looking clean.

[@hahathatsawesome123]

Honestly, my wife and myself have been watching your chair videos a TON and they are super helpful as we are trying to make a good investment in our WFH setups! I hope you can get more eyes on your channel because your quality and love for these setups is more than anything we’ve seen on other channels!

[@Ahnestly]

Thank you so much. Haha this really means the world to me!!

[@hahathatsawesome123]

@@Ahnestly keep doing your thing Dan! Whether those that are watching are subbed or not, you’re really helping a ton of people out there!

[@giuseppepaolini6754]

i'm here since a while now because i love herman miller chairs and this man is the best in reviewing them and all the other chairs... and not only this, but all the pc builds and the clean setups, i can't get enough of it... but i'm also here for the quality of the channel, that really it seems at least a 1M channel, how can he have only 30k subs i'll never know... btw keep up the great content and the great positivity and i'll stay here forever, guaranteed :) For the desk all i have to say is that it looks reaaaaaaaally good and quality packed... i don't really like that leatherish covering on it, but the fact that you can take it off is quite good!!

[@rickyng26]

Been shopping around for a desk and stumbled upon your channel for chair reviews. Now you have desk reviews too , this makes my life so much easier!!

[@kipperrd8964]

I bought this desk about a year ago. I absolutely love it. The cable management is so nice to finally have. I feel like this video kind of downplayed the shaking though. It’s really designed to be against a wall, not freestanding. You can do that if you want but the shaking will be more than a little noticeable. Otherwise I have no complaints. Also side note, the RGB strip wasn’t in stock when I bought the desk and had no date available on a restock so I bought some Govee lights that go behind the monitor and honestly, it kicks the hell out of their overpriced RGB strip.

[@Ahnestly]

I didn't mind the wobble too much, but you're totally right!!

[@s784]

Thanks for the opportunity, been looking for a really nice desk to upgrade my desk setup.

[@supermasterfighter]

NGL this is actually a pretty damn cool desk. I’m not a big fan of gamer aesthetic but the minimalist nature of this desk appeals to me pretty well

[@RTFKT-CLONE-X]

Just picked up a secret labs chair based off your review, this would be an amazing second up!

[@augrz1]

The built in cable management looks like a huge gamechanger. As someone who absolutely despises cable management, this desk is a dream come true!

[@splinterskulll]

Really agree with the depth comment. With my current desk I have to keep my monitor hanging off the back to avoid being like a kid sitting in front of a tv screen lol.

[@Communistgun]

Just in time, this desk has been on my wishlist for a while now!

[@ariesbanuelos]

Seems like a good desk. What i like is the part in the back for cable management. Makes it easier especially for us that don’t like to really deal with that

[@cisco4766]

One of the best gaming desks Ive seen in a long time. Would be the final piece to the perfect gaming set

[@harrybrookes8281]

Imagine! A collaboration with The Blind Guys doing desk reviews!!😂. Love the channel ❤️ love the attention to detail. Never have I ever been so thoroughly engrossed and entertained about the egonomics and functionality of workspace furniture and peripherals. Cheers Ahnestly!

[@UsernameTaken70]

Bruh your videos came up when I needed a chair, and now months later when I’m looking for a desk you’re here for me once again. Thanks for doing the giveaway man! Love your videos!

[@plutosgodfather]

Your channel was an ESSENTIAL part of my new chair shopping experience that ended with me purchasing an Embody and I'm SO happy I found your channel!

[@samuri7185]

I had considered buying this desk while it was on sale, but ultimately passed on it because I couldn't find a thorough review. Glad you covered it. Your videos are great btw!

[@SgtHotdogbun]

I just recived my Mojo 72in standing desk (Weathered Oak but they have a gaming version ) . I would be more intrested in something like that. This desk is a really really underrated desk. The stability quality and everything else is on par and I haven't seem much from the company at all on the net. From the wheels for easy mobility to the maginet tray its so awsome I will be buying another one for the wife when I save up some more pennies. I know I have one already but would love to see things of the other companies not wide well known . Stll love all your videos and keep up the good work.

[@lambspoo]

Never knew how much of a furniture enthusiast I was until I started watching your channel.

[@whales388]

The desk has an interesting minimalistic design for a gaming desk!

[@jordantottori5833]

Binging these videos to pick furniture for my new office. Love the reviews!

[@Ahnestly]

nice!! If you need to order anything online, please consider using my links! Helps this channel a lot :-)

[@nikolarajkovic3558]

Thank you for making videos of such a good quality. I appreciate all the hard work you put into making them.

[@Ahnestly]

Of course! Appreciate the kind words!!

[@silvahawk]

still can't believe your channel is not as popular as other tech channel, I'm sure with consistent upload, you'll hit your milestone in no time

[@arcangelomassari]

I’ve been using this table for two months and it’s definitely worth it

[@applepieclub5012]

Appreciate the in-depth review, but even more so, your honest opinions. Thank you.

[@TigerJaeger131]

The bumpers are also made to fill the gap in between the desk and the wall when you have a Skirting Board in your room, putting it fully against the wall should also help with the wobble.

[@Ahnestly]

This makes a lot of sense!

[@mvnguyen291]

Really appreciate your channel man, I just really like computer chairs so its great to see a channel give such great analysis and reviews on them

[@z3r0717]

What i like about this channel is how honest it is and saves us consumers for making a bad choice.

[@tomywu]

What a giveaway, 42KG gaming desk prize that open to international views - that is insane. This is the 2nd video I saw about this desk, I just love the innovation of it. But if I have to pick between a gaming desk and a motorised sit/stand desk, I probably pick the sit/stand desk. But If I have to pick a gaming desk, this is by far the best I've seen

[@joonsohn]

I actually really like the little details of this desk, like the rgb lighting and magnetic foam pads. I know they seem really pointless, but they’re things that I’ve never seen in other desks and could even be pretty functional for some. Overall, love the clean aesthetic!

[@Masononi]

It's really nice to finally see a desk that's more than 24" deep, I don't know how people use such narrow desks. I got two big ol' screens lol

[@brandonm.817]

I'm new to this channel, but I really do enjoy the reviews on the chairs or any product you do a review on. Everything is well thought out. Keep doing what your doing!

[@vencler]

Okay boys, an incredible desk and a giveaway as well. Let's do this!

[@harveyarrozal6939]

thanks for the review again bro i got the secretlab eve 2022 chair its really great! still thinking the best table that i should use

[@Ahnestly]

No problem I’m Glad it helped!!!

[@Ashokaz]

I've been looking for a new gaming desk for a while and this one looks solid. I love your reviews and how genuine you are. Keep up the good work.

[@jcraw13]

Been thinking about this desk for a minute now, good review

[@treetrunkchung]

Not usually into gaming stuff including desks.. but the all steel construction with magnets is interesting. Thanks for the giveaway Dan!

[@akazenno9188]

The cable compartment is genius... God knows I need help with cables especially working with 4 monitors... Amazing addition honestly.

[@JadiLikeShui]

I found your channel when I was looking for a gaming chair to buy. I bought Secret Lab Titan Evo Frost Blue because of you 🤣 Anyway, I really appreciate the effort you put to create high quality videos/content. The way you talk is so clear and easy to understand. And on top of all that, you’re ahnest in reviewing stuff. If I win this table, it would be awesome because right now I’m using an ugly table for my streaming setup 😂

[@StevePilgrim2013]

Wow. Desks have come a long way since the days of massive oak furniture! Seems really functional.

[@LUH-]

One of the most underrated chanels keep up the good work man

[@bushidoal59]

Was looking into the Batman design of this desk, not too bad tbh. Thanks for clearing up whats worth it in terms of accessories 👍🏾

[@danieljebodh2096]

Was looking to upgrade my desk. Great video

[@Adrianisasianwbu]

The thing i like most about this desk is how modular it is and I'm sure Secretlabs will come out with more accessories in the future. Also huge fan of this channel, you helped me a lot with advice and i've bought my own Gaming Embody. I love it! Lots of love from the UK

[@Ahnestly]

I'm not entering the giveaway but I just want to thank you for all your work with the Office Chairs, which really helped me . Thx a lot ! Keep goin' !

[@dtom420]

What are the light bars on your wall called?

[@SolarBurn]

Hi, I just got a comment to contact you, is it legit?

[@Ahnestly]

Everyone, some fool has been going around pretending to be me using some weird account - it is a scam. The rules were very clear and you’ll be getting a DM from my accounts, not some weird account!!

[@apollo1989]

I already knew by looking at their comment that it was a fake account

[@9rurudayo]

I'm rooting for you to get the following that you deserve, Ahn! You can do it!

[@arkane7102]

Keep up the good work, I've been following for some months and the content is really good!

[@nignogmania]

Thanks for always having good content. You helped me decide on the Herman Miller Embody, I NEED THE HEADREST.

[@ralfg6619]

I recently found your channel as I'm looking for an office chair. The way you break down chairs and things to consider just really makes sense to me (fart handling in cushions). Plus the Blind Guys channel is pretty funny. Keep up the good work!

[@simonshooting1991]

I’m trying to redesign my setup for work and gaming. I discovered your channel viewing the chair videos. Great reviews, loving your criticism and honesty. Keep up the good work!

[@ericsalamanca9983]

I need a desk like this. The cable management is really something else!!

[@jeffreypelarde6231]

Love how much in detail you put in for the chair reviews. Great channel to compare and find out pros and cons about each chair, for a future purchase.

[@samsters3248]

My son just purchased his first gaming computer and I’m sure this desk will be great for it.

[@marianikolaou2751]

The all-steel, all-black look is a winner, but the real winner is this cable management gap + tray. Secret Lab is proving to be a really high-quality company for everyone that spends a lot of time on their desks, and I'm here for it.

[@Papa_Johnald]

I have been teasing the idea of getting a new desk, as I'm running out of real estate on the tiny guy I have now. I've seen the magnus desk pop up before and it has kept my interest for some time now. This is the first video I've seen reviewing it and I think the practicality of the magnet situation is my main selling point. It seems sturdy enough being made of steel (I don't think the slight wobble will bother me) and I can tell it will last a long while. I didn't realize that I had watched some of your past chair reviews, so I just subscribed and I'm excited about more stuff you'll put out in the future. I don't have an insta but it would still pretty dope to win this desk.

[@kobodragon]

Your content is really good! Thank you for helping me decide what chair to buy. Really like the cable management on this desk,

[@JustACommonFan]

Such a cool desk. Thanks for your honest review of the accessories. Very interested in this!

[@Ratty12ro]

A friend of mine got this desk and his super happy, the desk looks prettt cool.

[@dcoiman]

Man I have been dreaming of getting this desk to really complete my set up. 🤞. Loved the review.

[@joelkosoff6854]

Thanks for the review. I watched a lot of reviewers when looking for a desk chair. Yours were by far the best! Keep it up!

[@karting111111]

I've followed you since I was looking for a desk chair. It took me long until I decided between an ergonomic chair or a gaming chair. Today I'm a happy owner of a Herman Miller Sayl chair. As a student it's perfect for studying as well for gaming! Would love to win this desk to clean up my dreadful cable management underneath my desk right now. Keep it going bro!

[@youbinjang7718]

perfect desk for cable management, ty for the review

[@joaquinguzman2295]

I just discovered your channel and I really like the way that you review these products. Looking forward to watching more videos in the future :)

[@telisto]

Finally! Built in cable management! I need this desk!

[@isaacpak1628]

I come to this channel for all my office needs. I used the knowledge here to buy a used remastered herman miller and my back thanks you.

[@killboydxb]

I live in the middle East. And honestly although there is a strong gaming presence, gaming accessories and esports is seriously lacking. Not to mention gaming accessories it presenr is just super overcharged by at least 4 times the actual price. My god generic gaming chairs could easily go for 600 dollars and it's not even branded. This table if it were sold here in dubai would literally cost thousands lmao. But my god the cable management on this table is crazy. The magnetic feature tho is where its at. Would work amazingly with the iPhone since its never gonna fall off. This, and the anda dark Knight would be the perfect combination! Kisses and hugs from the United Arab Emirates! Happy gaming!

[@Kahweiyap2001]

First found your channel through your Herman Miller content. Love what you’re doing here, good luck with the goals!

[@bladermike]

I subscribed for the ahnest opinions about the office/gaming chairs and such that brought me here ^^

[@TheTacoTony]

Love the cable management of this desk. leaving everything look nice and clean

[@JohnTaylor-hh9vq]

Desk looks great and it's been time to upgrade for years! (9 to be exact) Perfect timing on the contest!

[@mabel2108]

this is actually a great and new take on desks i really like it

[@alvinkiing1328]

I have subscribed and followed your channel the day when I started looking into video guidance on chairs comparison. Your video is the first few which pops up on the list and I'm so glad to clicked into them! I have learnt so much from you and appreciate all the tips and tricks that you put in to make these awesome videos! Thank you very much, Dan!

[@jacerandolph7343]

I really love that cable management feature on the back of the desk, and the magnetic feature is just fantastic! I enjoyed the video as well, I don't know how you only have 30k subs you should have way more!

[@dannya6377]

That desk seems ok for a standard setup. Not like those high end built-in but warmer ones but also doesn't seem like you gotten it from the Facebook marketplace. I do agree on not adding bars to the leg. The thing I wish it had was to have a self option if you do want a pc underneath but that can easily be solved with strong magnetics and a little bit of creativity.

[@timboto4595]

Just ordered my HM Embody thanks to your reviews! Hoping I can add this desk to my set up too :)

[@rcarter1690]

I love the cable management solution, better than just a hole in the table. The magnetic headphone hook is a great idea too. Very flexible.

[@rkam8087]

Good content man, I appreciate that you think like one of us, as a regular consumer

[@_Katana_]

Ended up ordering an Embody chair because of your videos. This desk would be a better match than my 10+ year old Ikea desk that I'm afraid to put my Lian Li tower on top of!

[@nicholasrupisan8328]

Always head to your channel for everything office-related! Especially your chair reviews that have helped me choose one of my own.

[@PyroMessiah86]

I'd love this desk. I just opened a business here in the Netherlands and looking for a new desk. This would be perfect. Great review of the features and everything. Thanks for the info!

[@dw01891]

I currently have an IKEA linnmon setup, I found you because I was looking at gaming desks on KZbin! This would fit my setup perfectly.

[@itsairwick]

This is definitely a next level desk. I have a sit and stand desk that I thought I'd never get rid of but this is tempting for sure.

[@nsheshmo]

I have a standing desk that I use for work, but my biggest gripe is it's super unstable. Love the stability of this desk! Also, that cable management looks like a breeze to use! Great video as always, keep it coming!

[@aitorsahonero7017]

the video was well done and the desk looks like it will make cable management a lot cleaner. keep up the good work

[@NegativoSiempre]

The cable management feature is sick, would love to have this at my home office

[@MegaTechboy1]

Been looking for a gaming desk with a minimalinterest clean look, this may be the one. Thanks for the video, helps make a decision.

[@pawansahu3751]

This desk will be a heaven for people who love cable management

[@AranMK8]

Love the look of this desk. I'm someone who loves cable management, so the way this conceals it all is awesome

[@Winamp_]

If IKEA had this desk it would probably be a best seller. Also, your channel has improved a lot lately, I watch your stuff when I sip on my coffee usually and the intro this time was really something special. Seeing improvements like this is a journey I enjoy, honestly.

[@michaellombardi5468]

I love the size of the desk and the easily accessible cable management system

[@cooner69]

Found this channel couple days and then managed to watch almost every single one lol

[@kevinlam6997]

If only it was a standing desk, but it looks like a super nice desk!

[@SimplyAwesomeness]

This would be a great replacement for the dining table I'm currently using for my work desk! ❤️

[@MainManGordo]

I honestly like the gap for some reason. When I saw the desk I was iffy on it because of the space of the table and what I thought was a weird bar not connected, then I saw the tray and knew I wanted it

[@sotho-centric5711]

I just wish giveaways reached the unmentioned parts of the world, but back to the desk, I like the height setting you've done there. But for the most that it's s is steel, I'm "crushing" it. -

[@vhanila3402]

I love how simple the desk is and my desk right now is very small that one is super wide I love it

[@desirree201]

Love the honest reviews. Really helped me out when researching computer chairs. Ended up getting a Steelcase Leap V2!

[@jxcall7184]

Really need a nice desk like this, been using an old wooden desk for the past few years. Time for an upgrade!
