I found this to be the perfect solution to turning my in-home office desk into a sit-stand workstation.
The unit is extremely well built and very easy to assemble. I am a not particularly strong female, and I had no issues doing the assembly by myself. As you can see from the photos, I have a corner desk. I was able to clamp the arm directly onto the desk ~21" from the corner. It works perfectly from that position. I paired this with a LifeSpan under-the-desk treadmill so now I can walk while working. I've added ~ 2 miles/day of walking to my fitness routine. When I get tired, I can easily just sit down by placing an exercise ball on the treadmill to use as my chair.
I love how Ergotron enables me to literally push the keyboard and monitor out of the way when I don't need them - this frees up my entire desk workspace. I plan to mount LED lights under the Ergotron's work surface to give me some task lighting on my desk.
Other reviewers have commented on the "shake" that they feel when typing with the unit in the "stand" position. With my unit extended I can get the front edge of the keyboard tray to deflect .5" when I push hard on it. When I am standing and walking, I adjust the keyboard height to a comfortable ergonomic position and therefore don't need to applying much pressure at all to the keyboard. I notice a slight deflection, but it doesn't bother me at all. So, for those of you who are worried about this, I would evaluate how hard you pound the keys. If you really lean into it, then you might be happier with the S model which is super sturdy.
In short, I am very impressed with Ergotron - it's a thoughtful design, very well built and it performs exactly as advertised. Oh - and I just logged 1/2 mile!
