# Horizontal Whiteboard

I got the whiteboard version which is awesome for taking down ideas from meetings, or whiteboarding a quick algorithm or two. The horizontal element allows for full play mode to activate, while your laptop is right there!

# A Photographic Memory (Button)

The memory button is fantastic, I can't imagine living without it. Makes the swap between sitting and standing a breeze.

# Many extensions were not worth it

They just weren't. Pretty expensive for how little I use them :/. The monitor arms and the power grommets were for sure worth it, though.

# Way too hard and expensive to get into

A standing desk is a big investment! It's a one time cost, but one that must be eaten to get value.

# Desk Wobble

When the desk is at full height, it **will** wobble. And it **will** distract you while you're typing.

<section id="id15" name="Torque??" links={['id13']} type="normal">
# Torque??

The PC holder on the side has so much torque! The desk starts tilting to the left after a while and requires a full reset. I was told by customer service to move the PC to the inside of the leg. But then why do they sell the extension?!
