Like the cupholder and headphone mount LED lighting strip can be left off without issue. Desk had clear assembly instructions taking out of packaging and assembling took me about 40ish minutes but I had to redo a bit because I didn't read the instructions carefully enough. I previously used a $40 IKEA table for 8 years so this a huge upgrade me. I like the jumbo mouse/keyboard pad the desk comes with.
Needed a small computer desk for my girlfriend that doesn't cost an arm and a leg. This one was on sale at staple and quite solid. Pretty easy to put together and does its job as a desk so far.
So Far so good! Would be nice to have a manual option (no motor to break) to convert from sitting to standing but I am awaree the design and cost would need to change thanks
