Adjustable Desk

I will do that, naturally I have a thousand things to do before I can actually use it. First we have to move my office into what is now the guest room because it has hardwood floors, so I can roll the desk, and only one window – so I can put up my new “blackout curtains”. And THEN I have to put it together, with the assistance of my husband who has no patience for that kind of thing – so it might take awhile. But since they are on sale I didn’t want to wait in case someone wanted to order one this month – I ended up saving nearly $300 with the sale and discount. And frankly I was very impressed with their customer service which is kind of unusual these days. I might keep pulling this to the top until the end of the month so people have a chance to check it out. Who knows what will be on sale next month. 🙂

And it’s on SALE this month for a big chunk off the normal price. I got the 60″ one because it was only $40 more than the 48″ and I wanted to make sure I had enough room for my laptop, mouse AND drawing pad.

Right now the 60″ basic unit is $545, [B]$345 off the regular price[/B]- that’s a big chunk of change!!! The 48″ is $519 which is $320 off the regular price.

I do not think the two smaller sizes will fit over a recliner – my recliner width is around 35″ (the arms are puffy). Trust me, I did a lot of research and bookmarked a lot of different desks, this one seems like it will work the best for me. If anyone wants the links I bookmarked so you can look at the other desks I’ll be happy to send them to you but I don’t think it would be polite to post them on this thread. 😉

It’s HERE! It just showed up. If you decide to order this desk make sure you have someone who can carry/use a dolly to carry at least 140 lbs. to take it to it’s final destination. I expect you could unpack it and carry the pieces but they only get it to the ground floor of your house. I’m pretty excited, it’s going to be hard to wait to get it set up!

You are so sweet to say that! I don’t know about deserve – it’s more a matter of self-preservation… 😉

Ok – just check out this multimedia workstation! We spent the last three days rearranging the house and putting the desk together. Don’t worry, the desk only took a couple of hours… it was the rest of the stuff. And without going into too much detail… THIS THING IS AWESOME! It’s exactly what I needed and wanted. As you can see from the picture I’ve got everything I need within reach except for the bathroom! And check out all that stuff! That TV is 16 years old and still works perfect – LOVE Sony, quality stuff. And this desk is quality stuff too – I think I could ride this through a hurricaine and come out just fine. It’s so sturdy I’m not going to be able to break it no matter how clumsy I get. The desk is heavy but I have no trouble sitting in the lounge chair pulling it back and forth. My only trouble is a persistant tendancy to step on the wheel brake locks which confuses me when I try to move it next. That’s just user error – it’s not completely idiot proof! 😉 Anyway, it’s the best Christmas present I’ve had in years and years. Merry Christmas everyone!

(please ignore the grungy floors and art table – there used to be a lot of paint flying around this room and we’re still in transition)

Oh dear, I have to comment on that knife that I forgot was in the picture – it’s just a joke, we were taking these to show my parents and hubby wanted them to know I was well protected in a close up fight… it’s just a joke so don’t go thinking I’m all psycho or anything. I should also point out that the portion of the desk that my laptop and drawing pad are on elevates from a standing position to all the way lying down so I can use it completely reclined or sitting or even standing up if I have the leg strength for that.

I’m such a space cadet… I keep forgetting to post that these are still on sale and they told me that they will periodically be on sale every few months so if you are saving up just keep checking back and they will be on sale again at some point in the next year.

I absolutely love this thing, it has added such new dimension to my life, especially when I am feeling too bad to go further than from my bed to the big blue lounge chair. (this chair [B]is [/B]comfy but it’s falling apart… it’s at least 10 years old, inherited from my in-laws when they moved. 😀 )

I think the desk is a good investment that will likely last longer than me!
