Glorious Workbench black Reviews
Great Workbench
Exactly what I was looking for!
Great desk, but..
Great quality but it is not fitting my needs. The width of the desk is not long enough to add all my instruments. I do recommend it for anyone who has a keyboard and max 2 instruments.
Amazing
Practical and superb ! The best thing is the turnable monitor stands
Not too bad!
This desk is not too bad at all. Here are my thoughts on it:
Pro's:
- The price is lower than a lot of other desks
- Fairly easy to assemble (took just over an hour on my own)
- Nice and sturdy feeling desk
- doesn't take up a huge amount of space
Cons:
- It comes in 2 boxes, which encourages incompetent postal services to deliver them on different days.
- The keyboard tray doesn't quite pull out far enough to reach all the params on my keyboard
- The keyboard tray is just a touch too short to fit most 88 key keyboards, so had to use a 61 key
- The desk is flush with the side panels, so there's nowhere to clip a headphone clam or desktop boom arm
Overall i'm very happy with the desk, despite the drawbacks. When taking the price into consideration, this was a great purchase.
Great value
Sturdy, easy to make, no complaints at all
Overpriced for what is it!!!
I am using this studio desk in my home studio already couple of months . It was easy to build just by myself, Quality of material isnt great but good enough,.What I dont like is that it isnt enough stable If you play on midi keyboard little bit harder, all desk is shaking.
Summary I cant say it is a bad product, but for this price it is ridiculous, If you have a chance to built it by yourself, definitely do it. You can built it for less than half of the price and even with better quality of wood.
A quite ok desk
This is honestly my first workstation. It was not difficult to assemble and working at the desk is relatively easy. I don't have anything to compare to, so I'm giving it medium rating. I have no complaints about it.
Very good value for the money, but..!
I do my research well enough before buying anything, so there won't be too many surprises.
I bought this one because I needed a new desk for my computer, and I dabble in audio on a hobby basis. The description was accurate, the build was easy (esp. if you know your way around that world famous flat packed furniture), and the packaging was as expected - no damaged parts.
But when I started using it i found the edges on the front aren't rolled off or rounded at all. I often sit in front of my computer in a t-shirt, and that makes the hard edge quite noticeable after a little while. I also tilt back in my chair quite a lot, which means the hard edge on the piano drawer is almost as noticeable.
Would I have bought something else if I knew this? Nope. The one star deduction is for those hard edges only. Overall the desk does its job and is well worth the money, and now I have a few free rack spaces for future units!
Great quality and very easy to build!
This bench has great quality and was easy to build. I feared that my monitor would be too high up when I bought it but that is not a problem. It sits perfectly and the height for me is perfect!
Easily worth the money :)
Brilliant Service
I am so happy with my item
Nice Desk
Really Nice desk. only problem i had with it was that it had marks and a few pieces out of it because it bumped around on its way here. other than that nice desk and easy to assemble
Perfect for beginners !
I use mainly this desk for mixing and I'm really impressed with the quality and efficiency of this product for the price!
I was worried about monitor positioning ( I have KRK VXT6) but I managed to find the perfect position easily.
The only cons is to assembly the desk: it's not so easy and takes hours ..
Apart from that, I really suggest this product, it's a great choice for a beginner like me
Great !
Easy to mount, good value for money
Glorious Workkbench black feedback.
I am satisfied for the characteristics and this product have a big potential. The bad part is the construction, the metal rail is no longer functioning, the metal balls were falling one by one, at this time I cannot use the lower keyboard manager.On the other hand the wood texture/surface has lost its color, uneven, from place to place and I have not found a way to clean it in a regular manner, it is discolored from place to place. I'll be happy to see in the future, at a higher price the same product having a more quality wood texture material, solid metal rails that can support more weight, and a more controllable way to fix the rackable screws.
It is what it looks like
It does what I want. Build quality is fine. Not quite enough glue, but hey. That might be a good thing if I need to break it down and rebuild it. The slide out shelf could be better. That's a small gripe.
It's good
Great for home studio use
The desk is really practical and let's you organize your equipment easily. As for the shipping, it arrived pretty fast with no additional costs as someone wrote down below.
The drawer is not the most solid drawer you will come across, but it is smooth and serves the purpose for the studio desk of this price just right. It looks really nice and fits any room cosmetically, though it arrived with 1-2 slight discolorations but I don't mind, it's hardly visible.
Basically the only thing I wish it was different is the depth (or height? - you will get it from the context) of the lower shelf and the drawer. My Arturia Keylab 61 MKII fits nicely onto the drawer in terms of width, but I cannot access drum pads unless I put that side of key board more closer to me. That being said, one part of keyboard doesn't rest on the drawer. However, if you don't use drum pads often, this probably won't be an issue.
As for the lower shelf, it can fit 13" laptops but not 15" or bigger in a sense that you can place it on the shelf but you won't be able to push your screen more than 90° while 100°-105° is the most natural angle for working at the desk, if you ask me.
Adding only ~10cm to the depth/height of the drawer and lower shelf would fix these issues.
Other than these 2 things mentioned, the desk really serves the purpose and I would definitely recommend it!
Great desk for the price
Thedesk looks exactly the same as in pictures, very tidy and clean. Very easy to mount, i mounted by myself in less than 30 minutes, instructions are clear and handy. I rated 3 stars on quality but not because of it materials but how it feels one fulyl assambled, wich is not 100 % solid, it shakes if you move it rough, but on a daily use situation you'll never do that, so it doesnt affects the functionality.
It does the jobb
I've had it for about a year now, and while I'd prefer a more solid and heavier one I must admit that I'm satisfied, for the price it's ecellent. It does the jobb, I will surely buy it again If I'd need another one. Only thing that didn't really hold was the small plaque with the brand's name on it...but who cares....still I've put it back with double-side tape....everything else still hold and perform as it should after a year. Worth the price and recomended!
Does what it is supposed to do
I have the desk for about a week now and used it quite a lot for the time that I have it. First of all it was not too easy, not to hard to build it. Took me quite a lot of time (more than 2 hours) since the one piece of paper manual has only 6 small pictures as instructions but then again I did it alone and I don't have much experience about setting up desks so someone who has done it before or has some help might do it easier and faster. The desk looks amazing and has a lot of space for gear. The drawer doesn't seem too bad but I haven't used anything heavy since my keystation pro 88 is extremely big and doesn't fit there but it seems that it can easily hold any 61 keys synth without any problem. The rotating shelves for the speakers are great. One thing that troubled me quite a lot was how to mount my gear on the racks. Once you build the desk and place the upper shelf there is no way to screw anything inside the racks because the screws simply dont fit in the racks. You have to place the screws in the racks before the upper shelf is in place in order to mount your gear. That's not a problem if you have everything but if you are like me and always improving your gear that means that every time you buy something new you have to get your monitor and speakers down, unscrew the upper shelf to take it out, mount your gear and then put them all up again. That is the only con i could find in the desk since in everything else (and in looks) it is amazing.
A very nice desk for a non professional studio. It as a good finishing and It looks pretty well in my living room
