The assembly instructions for this unit are TERRIBLE! The delivery people took over three hours to assemble with numerous phone calls to the Company during the process.

The design of the product is flawed - see picture. The cord comes out but there is no channel so the leg rests directly on the cord (see photo - eventual fire hazard). Also - the bolt does not screw all the way down so if you have hard wood floors - you will gauge your floors and/or rip your carpet.

Finally - the cord cover came damaged (see photo).

Not a great experience. They missed their delivery date by over a week. I had to chase down the delivery. Customer service does not follow-up as they indicate.

I LOVE the standing Herman Miller desk, having the whole surface raise is absolutely fabulous!!! There were a couple unexpected quirks compared to how our salesperson described this that others considering similar set-ups could benefit from knowing.

The crank is not underneath, it is actually in the work surface. There is an access point at each end of the table so that is a plus, I am concerned about the surface getting damaged or the crank part getting chipped so I try to be extra careful. It takes more than a few cranks to raise and lower the surface, 80 to be precise and I am only 51. Most people who want a standing desk have neck and shoulder issues so this will just aggravate it or create issues they didnt have.

My biggest recommendation is to go with the electric version, it is more than worth the extra cost.
