10th August 2018 I finally got around to setting this desk up, and looking forward to using it so much, sadly I have more disappointment than joy.
Basically it's an expensive Ikea Desk - about 50 screws to put it together
I will outline a few of the pros and cons:
PROS • Looks nice • Colour scheme is pretty good • Its a giant mouse pad
CONS • The height adjustment is possibly the WORST design ever, its a single screw to hold a heavy desk, so all it does is flop back and forward about 0.5"once you have the preferred hight set - very annoying - see pics

• The second screw above the height adjustment doesn't help the desk stabilise, and just falls (completely) into the leg • The desk wobbles, a lot - especially if you hammer your keyboard like I do • The cut away is too deep if you like to sit into your desk in a comfortable leant back position because of the frame • If you have a decent gaming chair (Mine is the AK Racing PRO) the arm rests continually hit the frame • The lowest setting of the desk and a comfortable, leant back chair means your thighs constantly hit the frame (Im also 5'9") - if you are tall you are going to have trouble • The welding is Shoddy - has sharp 'left overs' hanging around - see other reviews • The legs are splayed outwards so it looks wonky (See Pic) - both legs are like this

• The directions are missing bits - you kind of have to work bits out yourself - not a huge deal • Getting the 3 pieces of table top to fit together is annoying when they dont provide additional stability
I'll probably find another way to height adjust with blocks or something.
I dont recommend this desk.
