Originally, I was looking at L-desks since they generally allow users to take advantage of a larger amount of table top space. However, I found it challenging to find a desk that was large enough and has the standing desk feature (that doesn't look like a typical in-office standing desk). I came across this desk and it was just what I was looking for and more! It is sturdy, it elevates the look in the room, and the assembly process was fairly simple. The best part is that also has an electric, programmable standing-desk feature so multiple people can use if needed.
