Once it is together, great desk, so hard to assemble.
I've wanted an L shape desk for a long time and there are a lot of options out there, some of them very expensive, so I opted to go with this Vivo desk as I had one of their desk tops before on a different standing desk and it was pretty nice.I was impressed with the build quality of the frame of this desk, except for the one part that had a lot of dings in it (as pictured).The desktops I received were also very nice and very thick/heavy.Now here comes the bad: The instructions are terrible as is the assembly.For the frame itself, it is doable, up to the point of inserting the cross bars. The cross bars are not marked, so you have no idea what the length should be in-between the legs and the instructions don't supply a length either for your particular product.The only way to know is to put the desktop on the floor and then assemble the frame upside down, but this is where it became even harder: The pilot holes in the desktops they provide DO NOT LINE UP WITH THE FRAME!I was literally shocked. For a normal, non-handy person, I don't think this task would have been possible and if I was charging someone to put this together, I would have charged $200-$300 dollarsa. It was a total pain in the butt.After you get it assembled upside down, you have to take everything apart to flip the frame back over. Once you flip the frame back over to the correct orientation you can lay the desktops on top of the frame and start screwing things back in.This desk took me at least four hours if not more to put together. Compare that to another cheaper sit/stand desk I recently put together for my sister that only took me an hour or so and you can see the issue.The final product is nice, however, be warned that you will need a straight edge and some DIYer attitude to complete it.I always try to complete these sorts of products with the given tools and the Allen wrenches supplied were far too small and made everything that much more difficult. They were hard to gain any leverage. I wish companies would fork out a bit more money for some T-Handle wrenches and charge the end user a bit more. No one would care.Vivo, please start drilling the correct holes for the correct desk frame and you have a 5 star product.

Be prepared to calculate and drill mounting holes besides that great desk.
The desk arrived without issue and was packaged with sufficient padding and foam. All the components were made from tough materials. Assembly requires two person and make sure you are careful when handling the heavier parts and can take some time. All good up to the point where you have to drill the desktop to the frame. Headache since it came with small random holes dotted under the desktop without any clear indication where any screw should go. So just get a ruler and calculate the gaps and see that it's straight. After the headache, the assembled product is great and spacious for a triple 27 inch monitor setup with plenty of space for a laptop, the tower and area to write or setup office supplies.

Quiet, Spacious, Great Surface, Not Junk
Unlike many desks sold on Amazon, this is a high quality, sturdy, quiet, and well built desk. I was skeptical with how many options exist on Amazon and did a ton of research to find a desk that was high quality and not compressed saw dust that's wrapped in what looks to be wood. After using this desk every day for about 5 months, I couldn't be happier that I chose this brand. The raising / lowering is smooth and quiet. Assembly was also easy, just make sure you have a drill to be able to put it together. If you don't have a drill, be very weary about the desks that come with pre-drilled holes (my girlfriend got one and the quality is terrible compared to this one). I would recommend this to anyone looking for a high quality standing desk. 5 stars!

Not reversible!
First off, this desk is a dream (once it's built). I came from a smaller, hand-crank standing desk which made finding motivation to stand much harder. This monster fits three 32" monitors and my computer with plenty of room to spare, and it stands at a press of a button. As someone who works from home, this desk is everything I could ask for.Now to the negatives.I mainly bought the bigger size because one of the Q&A's said the desk was reversible (i.e. putting the long side on the left instead of the right side).It isn't. The smaller size may be, but the 83x60 is definitely not. From a manufacturing standpoint, it's a very simple and cheap fix, but it seems like the cut a corner here. I had to flip everything in the room to fit this desk.Next is assembly.There are pre-drilled holes, but they aren't for this desk. Do not try to use them. They will disappoint you. You have to measure it out yourself, which made assembly incredibly time consuming.All in all however, if you can get through all the assembly headaches, it's definitely worth it.

Great Desk
For the price you pay, it is well worth it!! This is extremely sturdy, sleek, durable, and very quiet. Overall it was very quick shipping, easy to put together and looks amazing! Only issue I have found is that the support legs stick out further than the top of the desk so you can’t push it flush against a wall but not that big of a deal!

So Far So Good
Product went together well. There are a lot of predrilled holes on the toppers, but no matter how I arranged the tops only could hit a few. So just make a couple more. The one drawback is that the feet are wider than the topper, which means that you will have at least a 1.7" gap between the wall and desktop, but more than likely greater than 2 inches with kickboard around the wall. I know the desk moves up and down, but the gap is a little large.

Great desk
Overall a great desk very sturdy not bad to assemble wish they had a little better instructions or suggestions on the wiring. It also had missing screws.
