VIVO 43 inch Corner Height Adjustable Cubicle Stand Up Desk Converter, V Series, Quick Sit to Stand Tabletop Dual Monitor Riser Workstation, Black, DESK-V000VC

PRAYERS ANSWERED
I purchased the VIVO standing desk as a way to become more productive and alert, while working. Setup was easy, as all is required is to screw on the keyboard brackets, keyboard holder, and leg stabilizers. All told, it took 10 minutes and a phillips screwdriver. When reviewing all of the other standing desk options, I was skeptical about this one, based on its price point, being so low compared to other models. Well I can tell you that the quality is great and all of my coworkers are eyeing me enviously, as they are very impressed with its ergonomics and design.Raising and lowing the platform is simply, as it has dual pistons and hand levers that control the locking features. You can adjust the desk from 6 inches to 16 inches (monitor platform height). I have two 27 inch monitors and there are no problems with weight or distribution of the monitor stands on the platform.CON:1. Particle board materials throughout. This might prove an issue for the keyboard holder, as the weight of resting your hands/wrist on it may cause it to fail at the screw holes eventually.2. Large footprint on desk. Not an issue for me, but this is a large stand that will require about 30 inches x 30 inches of desktop space.PROS: Everything!!!Every coworker that has seen the VIVO wants one…that is a statement of it’s quality and usefulness. No need to spend $300-$500 on a stand, buy this one!!!!

Good desk at the price point, few things to know
I ordered this as a work from home agent. I work 40-50 hours each week and sitting was getting difficult. I needed a larger desk to accommodate a 27 inch iMac and 2nd monitor that is also 27 inches. They do need to be in somewhat of a V shape to fit though. I do want to mention the 43.5 inch marking it at the extreme widest part and that is actually a very small area due to the curve.Arrived promptly in good condition, putting it together was fairly simple, the instructions could be a little better but with common sense, included illustrations and a few tools went to together easily within 15 minutes or so.This desk is easy to use, easy to lift and lower. The keyboard tray is fully adjustable. I will include photos of the distance from the top of the keyboard tray to the top of the keyboard. All told from the desk to the keyboard adds just over an inch to the total height to keyboard in the down position. The gap itself is only about a quarter inch, the keyboard tray is substantially thick. In its down position the desk adds 6 inches to the entire height. The desk itself appears remarkably well made, and even the handles have a nice feeling and design and are easy to clean. I will edit at a later time on how well the gas cylinders have held up.The device holder is nice, although not quite large enough for a standard 9.7 iPad in a case. If you remove the case an iPad 9.7 inch fits perfectly. It works well for a mini or mobile phone however.There are several reasons I gave it 4 stars and a few things I want to mention. Not to dissuade – more to allow people to understand exactly the pro’s and cons of this desk. One, if you approach 30 pounds – when you lift if you are not steady it will slide forward a bit. Not a huge amount but a little bit. If I remove the heavy iMac I notice it does not slide at all. Second, I would like to see some method of cable management included. Because there pinch points under the desk you have to be careful where cables are. I myself took a touch of glue and some thin velco on the underside and created my own (really 2 minutes and 20 cents of material). For me this was nothing major at this price point. Third (and this is the biggest complain for me) the keyboard/mouse tray has a very limited amount of room to maneuver a mouse when using a full size keyboard. What is the point of having multiple devices/monitors if you have a tiny 6×6 area for a mouse? I have yet to even find a mouse pad that will fit so I know in time the laminate will show the wear from the mouse.At this price point its a great system overall with a few minor quirks. I hope this review has given you some insight, when I went looking it seemed difficult to find truly honest reviews so I hope this has given you some insight about this desk and helped you decide if it is the right product for you.EDIT: 4 months later desk is stuck in a mid position. Too high to type sitting, too low to stand without hunching. I have emailed seller and will update with what seller has to say

Work from home game changer!
Absolutely love this only took seconds to put together and adjust on my desk correctly and comfortably. I can already tell that this is gonna make my work from home life so much more efficient. Sometimes I just get tired of sitting down and it’ll be nice to just stand up and still be able to work without slouching over to see the screen.

Great Product
A wonderful desk for your office.

Very strong and easy to pick up and push down. Assembly was simple. Might be ideal to be 2 if your not a handyman/woman.Works well with other VIVO products like the Duo monitor mount. I’m able to fit my 15inch laptop and 2 x 27inch screens.The keyboard space is not the largest, especially if you use a Logitech MK710 combo mouse and keyboard or larger. But with the mouse on the top and keyboard below it fits just right.

I have been suffering with sitting several hours at work almost to the point of changing my job. This is easy to build and does exactly what you need to be able to sit a while then stand a while. Brilliant bit of kit.
