"Perfect for Gaming."
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

I've had this table for 4+ weeks now. I have 2 moniters large keyboard and glorious model D also a microphone on a boom arm. It holds all of this without a problem and still got heaps of space for mouse movement for anyone who has that style of gaming. The optional cupholder is perfect size for my 1.2 Liter drink bottle allthough its more tall than wide. My 2 moniters fit fine with still heaps of space The lights are a good addon and add to to the gorilla gaming product experience and personally is worth the extra comared to the ordinary HERO desk. Overall its a great desk for any style of gaming.

"Quite nice, but some assembly quirks had me nervous."
4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

I like this desk. It's a bit nicer than just getting a bog standard desk, and it's not badly priced compared to them either. The top is solid and the carbon fibre look is way subtler and better looking than in the pictures. It's a nice size for a personal desk, especially for smaller rooms.

If you're wondering whether the RGB version is worth it, that's a matter taste. Basically you get two light strips as accents on the sides of the desk, facing upwards, with a little detailing to break them up. It has a plastic surround that attaches to the sides. I like this because it frames the desk a bit more. The light is bright enough to be seen during the day, but subtle enough not to be distracting. You can pick from several different colours, or leave it to cycle. You need to plug it into a USB port or plug; a typical phone charger brick will do.

The construction is acceptable, but there were a few quirks. The plastic covers on the bottom of the legs didn't click together very well, and took a couple of adjustments to attach properly (also, they are intended to cover some ropy welding by the looks of it). The instruction manual mentions screws that aren't included and aren't used. The holes on the underside didn't match up super well to the metal legs in one place, and on mine they were unthreaded, making for a nervous assembly (someone else pointed this out in another review). That aside, it's quite nice and I'm happy I went with it. The complimentary desk mat is a nice touch.

"Pretty good"

Decent desk, however some of the holes didn't line up, which was very annoying

"Brilliant."

The table is fairly easy to set up as the instructions are easy to follow. The design is sleek and fits very well with my black and red setup.

"Great value for money"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Delivered next day. Well packaged. Good quality parts. Very easy to assemble. All required bolts and screws included with a few spare of each type. All the assembly marks and holes in the right places and of the right size. All necessary tools included, so even if you don't have any of your own – it's all there. I got the RGB version only because I wanted that elevated perimeter, so my pens don't roll over the edges. Once assembled the table is solid and the size is right. My VESA monitor mounts are a bit sticking out, so have to keep some gap between the table and the wall. The mouse pad is OK quality, and it is a nice extra if you don't have a better one of your own. I am happy with this purchase .

"Good sturdy desk"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Looks really good and seems solid and strong. My son loves the lights and the carbon fibre look and loves having the big mouse pad. Took about 1 hour to assemble. The instructions were fairly basic but followable and none of the screws were labelled, but you could kinda work out what was what based on the number of screws (although there were several spares for all). Ours included lots of spare bits, including a spare foot, spare bracket and spare bolts and screws

"Amazing 👏"

Purchased on Mighty Ape

Sturdy, sleek and amazing for price

"Don't mix up the screws"
4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

I'm really happy with my new desk but the reason the review isn't 5 stars is because the assembly was a little frustrating. Things I didn't like: there are 2 kinds of screws that can be easy to mix up when you're wrangling all the bits and a bit tired, and they're in the same bag, I'd have preferred a stronger material for the cupholder as I can see myself breaking that in the future, the things under the desk for hanging your headset on are too far back from the edge and annoying to use so I actually leave my headset hanging on the cupholder when I'm not using it, the powerboard holder under the desk doesn't have a slot for the cable of the powerboard so it sits really badly, and I found the cable management holes to be too small for all the cables that needed running through them. Things I liked: you can choose which side you want the cup holder on, the RGB has a power button which you also use to cycle through the colour presets, I liked the free mousemat (I had missed that it was included and it was a pleasant surprise when I opened the box).

"Love it!"

Very strong and stylish. Took me about 20–30 mins to put it all together.
