THE BOTTOMLINE
This premium adjustable desk from Stratis offers simplicity at its finest. If you look at it, at first, you might assume that it is a regular desk. However, this desk, as the name suggests, is adjustable, enabling you to find the ideal desk height for you. In terms of comfort, the desk is adequate as it is adjustable, but it does not offer much other than that. Although, if you are talking about construction, it is well-built, can handle 265 lbs. of weight, and the locking apparatus feels solid when making adjustments.

The Vivo Desk V000B Desk Riser is ideal for a multiple monitor setup. It offers a spacious surface that can fit all of your work essentials. Plus, it comes with a removable keyboard tray that fits your keyboard and mouse easily. Comfort-wise, this desk is right there amongst the top. On top of that, the locking mechanism is only through one press of a button and is easily reachable. The construction, however, feels a bit low quality. Although the table itself is highly stable when adjusting the height, the plastic cover is quite poor and easily peels when exposed to high heat.
