Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I read all the bad reviews but figured I could rectify any mechanical issues with my tools on hand. Especially since this was significantly cheaper than the next similar models, which had no guarantee they were any better quality. It arrived in a flat pack that would make Ikea proud! Well packed with styrofoam and cardboard inserts for protection. There was no sign of any damaged pieces. Assembly was quite straightforward. I notice one review said the casters didn't sit flat on the floor, I did not have this issue but if the fact that the casters screw into place means washers could be added to correct that if it was an issue. The only drawback was that once complete the top surface leaned slightly to the right. Not bad enough to get in the way of use, but annoying if you're a bit OCD! Out with the squares and levels and everything seemed to be true. Further investigation showed that due to the top support tube being smaller than the bottom tube (to allow for the telescoping height adjustment) there was enough free play to can't the top tube one clamped in position. I tried shims to correct this but at the end of the day adding a couple of washers under the top mount resolved the problem (see second picture). I've had no issues with the clamp not holding, but then my laptop is not particularly heavy. I've had a lot of use out of this already with a couple of different systems and at various height settings, with no tendency for it to drop at all. The finish of the top service is not the best but really, who cares? They even threw in a mouse pad with it! Overall can't beat this for the price.
