Arozzi Arena Gaming Desk 63" Wide, Ultrawide Curved Gaming and Office Desk, Large Gaming Desk with Custom Monitor Mount & Cable Management Under Desk (Black)

The Arozzi Arena Gaming Desk arrived packaged well, without damage. The instructions to assemble were primarily pictures. There were a few steps that were a bit confusing based on the photos when assembling the rectangle portion that attaches to the desk. I googled a youtube video and was able to correct it quickly. At first, I tightened the screws to the legs in a rotational order and they seemed a bit wobbly. I recalled reading another reviewer's recommendation to tighten in an alternate pattern so I removed the screws and followed that recommendation, which solved the wobble instantly. I think this is a crucial step to anyone that complains of wobbly legs. This desk and solid and extremely sturdy when built correctly! This desk can probably be assembled in 45 minutes or less; however, I spent about 2 hours because I'm a small female, assembled slowly wanting to get it right and also had to research/correct a few steps. I only needed the help of my son when it came time to turn the assembled desk upright and move it to its permanent location. The desk-sized mouse pad fits like a glove and laid flat without any coaxing. All parts appear to be quality material and durable. I also felt more comfortable purchasing after learning that the mouse pad can be purchased separately if it ever needs replacing, as the desktop is three separate pieces and would not function (or look good) on its own. The end result of the assembly is a very sturdy and sharp looking desk.I am not impressed with the cable management system net underneath the desk. It sags in the important areas and doesn't hold the cables and surge protector well. My son has bumped it several times and everything comes tumbling out. I'll be figuring out a different solution to secure the wires (likely with wire wraps and ties) and will be screwing/hanging the surge protector either to the bottom of the desk or behind the desk. For this price and, given the quality of the rest of the desk, it's shocking the Arozzi really skimped in their area of design here. Other than the cable management, I easily rate the desk 5 stars. I wish I would have made this purchase much sooner! The desk looks great with a dual 25" monitor setup using the middle grommet to secure the dual monitor mount. There is plenty of room for everything without being cluttered. I placed the CPU under the desk on a CPU stand and it hasn't affected leg room at all. However, with the sturdiness of the desk, I feel confident the desk could easily hold the CPU, I just wanted to minimize any clutter on the desktop. I also purchased a clip-on cup holder to attach to the desk, which would have been a nice and cheap addition that Arozzi could have included at this price point, especially since I am going to have to invest in a new wire management system due to Arozzi's failed attempt at providing such. I am very pleased with my purchase of this desk, its aesthetics, and its build. My son is thrilled with his new gaming setup and my only regret is I did not purchase this desk for him sooner! If you are on the fence, don't hesitate to buy this desk! It's a larger investment than most of the cheaper gaming desks, but it is definitely worth the price point!Extras I purchased and that you may want to consider with this desk are:***AmazonBasics USB Powered Speakers (these sound nearly as good as the Bose computer speakers I have, but with a smaller footprint and are powered by USB) https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07DDK3W5D/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1***YOY clip-on cup holder (blended right in with the desk, clips tightly on the edge of the desk wherever you want placement and keeps drinks off the mousepad)https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07FZLQSMN/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1***VIVO Dual Monitor Mount (includes c-clamp or grommet mount clamp, we used grommet mount to allow the desk to sit flush with the wall, inexpensive yet durable, probably not the best choice if you are often needing to adjust your monitors' height and rotation)https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009S750LA/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1***Razor Mouse Bungee v2 (small footprint and solidly built)https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07FL2LSBH/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1***ErgoFoam Foot Rest (Highly recommend this particular one for anyone wanting a footrest, which is a great idea for circulation and posture when sitting for long periods, I'll be buying myself one also to use at work)https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07W742YZS/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1***CPU Floor Stand with Wheels (I am not partial to this one, it's plastic and doesn't move easily on carpet, wish I would have bought a better quality metal stand, but this was inexpensive and does the trick to keep the tower off the floor for air circulation)https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003BYRO7O/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1***Gamma Ray Blue Light Blocking Glasses (I did a lot of research before settling on a pair of these for my son, he enjoys using them, they are comfortable and don't cause headaches, great reviews, and inexpensive)https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00BQ7KBV4/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1***Respawn 110 Gaming Chair (easy to assemble, nice quality look with the desk, comfortable, feel confident it will hold up several years, word of caution is don't lean on armrests pushing outward as they will loosen and need retightening)https://www.amazon.com/RESPAWN-110-Racing-Style-Gaming-Chair/dp/B076HT2RFQ/ref=sr_1_4?crid=23KSG9M4A427A&keywords=respawn%2B110%2Bgaming%2Bchair&qid=1579434923&sprefix=respawn%2B%2Caps%2C196&sr=8-4&th=1

Summary of the reviewDifficult to assemble. Very Sturdy. Mouse Pad is amazing. No wobbling.When the table arrives, all the parts are individually wrapped in a plastic bag. The screws are labeled and categorized in multiple pouches, each pouch for a specific assembly process. The cloth pad is individually folded in a carton and doesn't have any marks or isn't crumbled at all. As soon as you unwrap it is straight. This was really amazing to unfold.Like a finishing touch to your masterpiece (if you assemble successfully.) Everything about the packaging is premium. I chose the white color as I am going for a white/black PC build theme and this goes in perfectly.Cons:This might be applicable to the lazy ones. Before you begin the assembly, make sure the poles and stands are facing the right direction. Either watch the assembly video complete before you start so that you know what part should point in which direction. The assembly guide does talk about the process but doesn't explain the right orientation. If you are unlucky, you might have to unscrew/screw multiple times.The cuts for wire passes in the cloth mat is ugly. It's just a slice by a knife and feels as if someones has done it by mistake. When I first unrolled my mat, I was shocked for a moment. I thought I accidentally drew my razor on the cloth while unboxing. Then when I flat pressed it, I saw that it is indeed designed to pass the wires. They could have stitched the corners after slicing like the edges. It doesn't have a premium look there.If the above cons didn't deter and you are still ready to purchase it, then please find the list of amazing attributes about this product.Pros:Gamers, just buy this. It brings a unique sophisticated touch to your setup and the thoughts behind cable management, extended keyboard/mouse pad is just amazing. Even the height can be adjusted as per your convenience (involves post screwing). I see many reviews that are complaining about the wobbliness. It indeed is slightly wobbly but that goes away once you place it against the wall. Make sure to screw in the screws tight for the base and the wobbliness would be minimal. If it wobbles much, you did something wrong. Better check the screws and base.Arozzi have your 4.5 stars. 1/2 deducted because the manual needs to be improved. It could have saved me from multiple re-screwings.
