The lighting in this video is so good! I think this is a really nice spot for this sort of relaxed videos. You're killing it Elliot! Keep up the good work. Cheers from Italy!
Having been stuck at home for almost a year and moving a lot less I think these sorts of desks would help. Also don't underestimate the importance of having multiple holes to screw into.
Paper assembly manuals should die out today and always be replaced by video tutorials that producers should upload in youtube, at least in the box there should be a piece of paper with an IR code to reach them.
To an extent I agree; globally we need to reduce wastage as much as practically possible, to reduce the affects of climate change, protecting the forests/woodlands/natural habitats as well as preserving fossil fuels until scientists find legitimate alternatives. We do however live in a world with technophobic, often older members of the community. Ok, this example is aimed at office work and computer users, therefore aimed at the computer literate. Other furniture may need printed instructions for the IT illiterate to build from. I believe IKEA (who do publish PDF instructions on their website) use recycled paper. I think the next best compromise would be to print the instructions on the cardboard packaging on larger units.
@@ToxoRetro Whenever possible it would be good to do as you say. Anyway, in my ideal world (I realize it is difficult to achieve) it should not be progress that must stop to not leave behind technophobic or people who have various difficulties in approaching technology, but it is these that must be helped to become familiar with technological means as much as possible because the benefits for most people far outweigh the difficulties of those few (who obviously must not be left behind). I'll give you the example of Italy, here until very recently we all paid only in cash and this greatly favors tax evasion by professionals, political parties have always played the card of "the elderly can't learn the modern payment systems" to not be forced to proceed with the evolution of these mechanics (the real reason is to not to lose the votes of elderly and tax evaders) and therefore we have fallen behind on the issue and are only recently trying to catch up with other developed countries, at the cost of a lot of effort and waste of money. Most people can learn, who can't, can be helped in different ways. I hope you understand the concept, I don't speak English very well. :P
@@LucaBlightOfHighland 🤝 Good analogy. With any change, there needs to be advancements to improve things (more efficient, more secure, more convenient, etc) whilst not changing too much, too fast or too often (leaving people behind or just confusing the public). It's a tough balance. When analogue TV was discontinued in the UK (before the 2012 Olympics), I was working for an electronics store. The amount of middle-aged and elderly who didn't have a clue was surprisingly big; probably 40-50% of our customers! More often than not, it's the fear of the unknown. Digital video formats, on the other hand, do rattle with my head. Still can't play GoPro footage on my PSP. Even in the correct format, the codec claims to be wrong - I can't find out what it is or how to change it. 😵 Too complex, despite being brought up with and having studied computers at college. By the way, your English is really good. 👍 My language is so confusing with all the different rules set by the various historic invasions (the Celtic tribes, the Romans, the Saxons, the Vikings, the Normans, etc) - even us UK residents get our spelling and grammar wrong. 😜
Nice if they send it for free, for that price i expect a chair with it, not everyone is young enough to stand all day but on the whole not that intrested.
Holidays coming next weekend. B&Q, Amazon, IKEA orders done, Flexispot order done (E5 Pro)... It’s time for a full refurb of the office! Quite exited to see the end result. Thanks for the review
If you've got the budget, this could be handy for standing (for rendering or uploading/downloading), sitting (gaming or typing) or mid range simulators (racing wheels/flight sticks/yokes plus pedals).
Honestly every time this happens to me I find that the second time recording it is way smoother since you already did a "real life rehearsal". Don't feel too bad, it sucks in the moment, but the delivery is so much better the second time around.
bought the feet of this table in promo for 270 and I got a friend at ikea whos get me their black gaming table for a reduced price. the overall cost is gonna bet less than 400 eur. awesome
Not to throw shade or anything... but that's quite expensive and quite a lot of assembly for such a desk :/. You can get these for 60% of the cost and 1/3 of the assembly :/ .
But iPhones are £1200 and you can buy another phone for 60% of the price. Or a Ferrari is £100,000 and you can buy another car for 60% of the price. I don’t see your point? These desks are all fairly similar in price, this is a review of the flexispot one.
They offered me one, but I've not heard back since :S
Not even a "Hello, you"?
Seems overkill. When I want to raise my desk, I just prop it up on some old Gameboys.
The lighting in this video is so good! I think this is a really nice spot for this sort of relaxed videos. You're killing it Elliot! Keep up the good work. Cheers from Italy!
My father is a instructional designer at UNE he uses this desk, back when he was not working remote good times!
Oh my God i saw the video just 2 mins after he posted
I really like ur vids keep it mate
Standing desk
*And he has a chair for it*
Well, to be fair, it's not only a standing desk. (And you do end up sitting a lot in the end when using such a desk ◕‿◕ )
Really nice, but get a headphone hanger under the desk...
I love that you measured the centre of the desk to get the monitor exactly in the middle
I fucking love that XD "I'm going to show you me putting it together...what the fuu" 😂😂
This desk costs more than my pc lol
ok
Ok

Will get this. But the hardwood version. I will screw my pc build and mac mini underneath though. I'm not sure how to do that, but I will find a way.
Elliot, I’m lovin this new channel. Perfect content

I keep delaying on pulling the trigger on somthing like this
Nice desk! but I think you need 2 screens... I personally cant ever go back to a single screen.
Can you make a video about the computers and tech you use for filming? Would love to see. Thank you for the awesome content as always!
Holidays coming next weekend. B&Q, Amazon, IKEA orders done, Flexispot order done (E5 Pro)... It’s time for a full refurb of the office! Quite exited to see the end result. Thanks for the review
Dude! I like your cooler master case! Never knew you had a little pc.
Nice!
But does he reply (agian)(again)(again)

Cool
What size is your one

I think I’ll cope without one 👍
Your maths is awful, you got the pricing all wrong and they had a discount code, the E5 frame and 120x80 top is £340 currently
hi
Do you frequently shout, ''sitting is the biggest killer in (wherever you from)''?
building in socks... makes me nervous (i do it too, but... MAKES ME NERVOUS seeing it) #besafeelliot

Hi Elliott
Very cool!
if this is 400 bucks, why not just get the one from a known brand like IKEA
Mechanical keyboard enthusiasts: One of Us! One of us! ONE OF US!

@@TheRetroFuture2 glad you like it and are happy with it. Just suggesting some shopping around might benift others 🤷
@@localhost4460 please show where with the same specs?
Standing desk ? The absolute horror. I gave my company the finger when they suggested one at work. I want to sit in a cushy chair and nothing more.
Sounds like you need to lose weight but
