VIVO Electric Corner Standing Desk, L-Shaped, 84" x 63" Black Top

TLDR: Lacks cable management solutions, but at a 3rd of the cost of the closest competition for this size and shape, that is something I am willing to add after the fact. Would buy again. Main Review: I have been looking for an adjustable L shaped desk like this for a few years now. The only option I had been able to find with a similar footprint was the Uplift’s offerings. When customized to my desired size and after selecting the “free” add-ons the total cost for that desk would be over $1600 after tax. In comparison, at the time of writing this review, I got this desk for just under $500 after tax. This desk is literally a 1/3rd of the cost of the only other competitor I have been able to find in the past 3 years of browsing. Sure, Flexispot also has some options, but the corner leg being the same as the edges just looks bad to me both visually and comfort wise. If I am spending over $200 on a desk I want it to look nice. The Build Process: I would say I am pretty experienced with assembling furniture. In a cramped room I was able to assemble this desk and mount 5 arms to it in about 3 hours. The parts look overwhelming when sprawled out on the floor, but the instructions are very clear and easy to understand. The only part that is a little confusing is orienting the table top so the L is facing the way you want it. Just double check the orientation and remember that the shape will be reversed when you flip it over and you should be fine. In terms of tools, I would highly recommend a drill since there are a ton of screws for this build. I would also recommend magnetic bits or starting the assembly with a magnetic screwdriver before switching to the drill as the machine screws in particular can be quite annoying when they fall into the channels. I like that the cable for controlling the desk’s height is just long enough that I can mount it to the mounting points at the far side of the desk. I wanted the controller out of the way as I don’t need constant access to it and I did not want it in the most high traffic corner of the desk. There was just enough slack to achieve that goal even if the desk was not designed with that in mind. Moving the Desk: I would not recommend building this entirely alone. I am quite good at moving and building large furniture solo and I had to call my brother over to help me stabilize the table as I flipped it around. Its large size and awkward shape made me fear that I would damage the desk in the process of flipping it. I built the desk a few feet away from the wall to give myself space to mount all my arms to the desk comfortably. Moving the desk with multiple monitors mounted is pretty much impossible to do without some furniture gliders and even then it’s a slow process. I would highly recommend 3 people, one at each leg, for moving the desk to its final home. Performance: I have a lot of weight on this desk and it is holding up well. I have a heavy mid tower PC with some beefy components on the edge of the desk. I have a 27in display, a 32in OLED, a 22in pen display, a DSLR, and a microphone all mounted to the back corner of the desk and it feels solid. I also have the underside of the desk loaded down with various power bricks, a few usb hubs /switchers, an external capture card, and a power strip. I would not want to lay on the desk as its not a single panel, but for everyday use I don’t foresee any issues. I definitely feel like I could mount more things to it or have another computer on the desk with no issues. Cable Mangement: Cable management is very important for a height adjustable desk and this does not come with anything out of the box. I decided to 3D print the modular Underware system. It has online tools for generating custom mounts for power bricks which is important when you have a lot of monitors. I also liked the idea of only screwing a plate into my brand new desk once. The modularity meant that I could make changes later without adding any additional screws into the desk. One downside of this desk in terms of cable management is that there is not much space to work with in the back of the desk since all the hardware for adjusting the height sits further back. This means most of the available mounting space is in the front which is not ideal for cable management.

Got the VIVO Electric Corner L-Shaped 84 x 63 in Standing Desk, Memory Height Adjustment, Dark Gray Top Black Frame. Super duper supremely packaged-wow. Desk tops came in one box (3 sections) and the rest in a 2nd box, all packaged well, all material accounted for. For the price point (~$500), this was an excellent purchase and yes, I highly recommend this desk if you have the room or need. Took my time laying it all out and paid special attention to the pictures and written instructions. They provide very good instructions for either layout. Previous users recommended a power tool with a magnet and yes, I COMPLETELY do as well, just keep it slow and steady. Then used a lil common sense and BAM! 1.5 hours later the desk was all together and running like a champ. The motor is super quiet and smooth and the settings were easy to establish. I set this up this afternoon so I have no history but it feels sturdy as well. I have three 27+ inch monitors and two laptops with room to spare and the desk feels solid.

I work from home and have always struggled with finding a desk large enough to fit all of my work equipment. This desk is massive, putting it together was a real chore. But this is the best desk that I've ever had and it was worth the trouble of putting it together. I love my setup and I hope this desk lasts a long time. Being able to stand up and work as well when I feel like it is a blessing for my knees.

I used to think that it wasn't going to be possible to get a standing desk for my current office setup, as I have quite a bit of equipment that requires a large desk. Almost all standing desks out there are the same--just a regular rectangle shape, roughly the same size. The few that I could find that were L-shaped were too small for my needs. But then I found this option, and so far I'm very happy with it. It's nice and big, which allows me to fit everything that I need on it with room to spare. The electric adjustment functionality so far has worked perfectly as well. It's not as quiet as some other ones that I've used at my office, but it functions fine and is easy to program and use. The material is what you would expect. A metal frame with a fake wood top--I think particle board with a laminate over that. It seems sturdy enough, and has allowed me to mount various accessories to the underside for storage and cable management. You will need to assemble the product, and it's a bit of a project, so prepare for a couple hours of assembly to get this thing ready to go. However, even the moderately handy will be able to assemble it without too much trouble. I've had the desk for several months now, and it has performed flawlessly in that time. We'll see how it continues to hold up, but so far I'm very satisfied and highly recommend this particular model of desk.

I'm really impressed with the quality, especially for the price. It's well designed and includes some details that I wouldn't expect at this price point, like detents to help align parts. The machining also seems really good, there was only one screw hole that could've been tapped better, otherwise everything fit together with really tight tolerances. Overall pretty easy to assemble, though it's a 2-person lift to flip it over and get it positioned. The raise/lower action is smooth and quick. I've fully loaded it with multiple monitors and speakers and computers and haven't seen any slowdown or struggling from the motor. Overall, I'd put the frame and motor on par with 3x-5x more expensive desks that I've used at work. The one area for improvement is the desktop surface itself. It's fine. Pretty much what I expected: what I assume to be a thin (3/4") piece of particleboard covered with melamine printed to look like wood and some edge banding. I may see about upgrading it later, luckily it seems like it'd be pretty easy to use the frame with a thicker/nicer top.

After completing the setup of the VIVO Corner Standing Desk, I can safely say the end result is spectacular. To be completely honest, the installation process was quite a significant undertaking and proved to be a major challenge to assemble. It requires a fair amount of time and patience to get everything aligned correctly. However, once assembled, the desk is exactly what I was looking for. It is incredibly spacious, providing a massive amount of surface area that easily accommodates my multiple monitors, gaming consoles, and PC tower without feeling cluttered. The build quality feels sturdy, and the Rustic Brown finish adds a very professional, high-end look to my office. At this stage, I am very pleased with the purchase. I plan to provide an updated review in three months to report on the long-term durability of the motorized components and how the surface holds up to daily use. If you can get past the difficult assembly, this is a top-tier workstation.

A little bit of a pain to assemble. I was mildly concerned given where the braces are but it's holding together and it goes up and down just like an elevator. A quick suggestion, buy a 3 ft long power strip and hold it underneath the desk. Try to buy one that isn't made in China though

Finally gave way... The center supports base need to be like the other legs.. don't buy.

Easy assembly, instructions are simple to follow. Amazing build quality, I’m extremely happy with this desk. It’s exactly what I was looking for.

Assembly takes about an hour, need atleast 2 people to flip over. But good desk , lots of room, clean lines.

cant express how convenient this desk makes things. HIGHLY recommend

Great. Love it. Thank you. Fits and functions perfectly.

This desk is amazing, great price works well Highly recommended
