Can you fit normal monitor arms? The space in the cable tray is tight but yes I fitted a normal monitor arm but I had to use a Drive Ratchet Tool to install it. If you don't have a tool like that, the worse case scenario is taking out the cable tray and installing the monitor arm without it first. Once you install the monitor arm, I don't see you needing to adjust it much...unless you're like me and switch things around all the time xD 2. Is that an Elgato Low profile mic? Yes, I installed that in the cable management tray with no problems - it just fits! 3. Carpet affected stability? Yes, I'm sure carpet is a lot less stable compared to other flooring. However, I compared the wobble with my other standing desks on carpet as well and came to the conclusion I had in the video. 4. What's the drawer I'm using?

The wobbly is because of the carpet at a hight
@ChibiChula2 жыл бұрын
Looks like the final production model is going to be great, and way too expensive for my nonexistent budget. 😅 Honestly, the only true criticism I have is for the monitor arm which is way too wimpy and considering their buyers tend to heavily lean towards the gamer side of users, they really should have known better than to even create something incapable of holding a big gaming monitor. Yes, monitors are getting thinner and lighter, but they're also getting bigger so that arm would only work for someone who needs a small monitor off to the side for whatever reason (and maybe they should market it for that use since it's very unobtrusive). Gamers and really anyone who does art, editing, even those who just need big monitors for other regular jobs aren't really going to be using those ultralight monitors quite yet, and those are generally the people who are going to be looking at buying this. I'm actually wondering how feasible it would be to put this desk on wheels. Bit of a scary thought but as long as the wheels lock and you don't try moving it while at max height, it might be okay? Would make things much easier to setup if it could. Though I'm actually mostly wondering because as a disabled person I always wonder if this kind of desk would work over a full zero gravity chair. Don't mind me. 😅 BTW, looks like you've also got yourself a good option for a loft bed there. Just needs a mattress, lol. Sexy desk display pose is on point too! 😂👍

Love your videos and was hoping you would review this desk. I fell in love when I saw it was the exact size I've been wanting and the integrated power and the LAN solution they're working on is all really awesome. Really hope they can fix the small issues the wobbling in the final product as that is a big pain point for me, especially at higher positions being 6'3. Was originally gonna go with that new Ergonofis Sway because I love the color and material (soft touch) but I think this one has it beat in terms of the tech and cable management, especially since they make awesome chairs. Thanks again, and keep making great content! :)

Lots of red flags here : -metal tabletop : why ? There's litteraly no reason for it. It will get cold for the arms in winter, it's heavy and noisy. A wooden tabletop is infinitely better -full desk deskmat : again, completely useless. It's here simply due to the fact that metal is very unsatisfying to the touch. What about when you want to clean the mat, as you should regularly ? -weak monitor arm : I have an entry amazon one, has the same features and holds up my 34 inches ultrawide without a problem -monitor arm clamps over the deskmat : so basically, if one day you wanna move your monitor arm, you'll have a big ass mark on your mat. great. -wobbly AF -basic LED screen seems janky The only thing that's really neat is the power management and the fact that you can power it from the bottom of one of the feet.

It's a shame that a premium tier desk doesn't have a monitor arm that can support a premium tier monitor.

Hey, I really hope you'll see this but I've got a burning question. I'm *this* close to pulling the trigger on this desk. My one hesitation is that I've got a 43" ultrawide monitor (secretlab doesn't create monitor arms for that size). Do you think there is enough space in the 'cubby' of the cable tray to mount any old monitor arm without interfering with the tray cover/hinge mechanism. Thank you in advance!!
@MikeWat4 ай бұрын
Yup you'll be able to! However, you might need uninstall the tray first to get access to the edge to install the monitor arm mount. Also, you'll need to see how deep the monitor arm mount is and if the cable tray depth will fit it...
