So far, so good! This desk is a lovely little replacement for a desk that was just too big for me. Everything is within arm's reach and convenient. I couldn't find a computer desk with adequate storage, let alone a sit/stand, but this desk's cubby spots and little "leather" drawers are going to work just fine. (The drawers are just cute and the faux leather has a decent look and feel to it.) The desk rises beautifully, with easy push-of-a-button recall. The only con might be that the monitor riser is a bit shallow for a monitor with a bigger base and doesn't have any sort of overhang on the back for attaching a monitor mount. But, it does work nicely. Also, the desk surface is on the thinner side but the base is so sturdy that I'm sure the particle board can easily be replaced with hardwood and supported just fine. Oh and the hooks couldn't be installed as directed but we just added them where we preferred. Overall, a definite good buy and easy assembly!
