Just wondering because I had a standing desk that didn't allow me to adjust my keyboard position and I found that my shoulders, neck, and wrists would get fatigued after a while.<br />Now I use a height adjustable desk that has an adjustable keyboard tray as well, though, and I don't seem to have that problem. <br />I don't know if GeekDesk does offer this option and you just didn't opt for it, but if they do, you should get it! If they don't, you might want to switch to a NextDesk? It is a lot like GeekDesk, but just a few steps up in my opinion. <br />If you're ever in the market for something new, check them out-- I highly recommend the Terra model! Check it out on their website: http://www.nextdesks.com/terra<br /><br />Thanks for the post!<br />NGAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14701181720204953420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3554775196719271875.post-30645646810795199762011-03-27T08:58:03.977-07:002011-03-27T08:58:03.977-07:00'Did GeekDesk replace your "crunchy"...'Did GeekDesk replace your "crunchy" unit?'<br />- short answer: they offered to replace it, so if you are concerned about that issue I would not be<br /><br />- long answer: I am still using crunchy, it is only in one small section and it really doesn't bother me at all, I think it sounds worse on the video than it already is. I didn't feel like reassembling a new unit when this one was working fine for me; all-in-all I have been really happy with my Geek DeskHouse 9https://www.blogger.com/profile/08045832658861127427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3554775196719271875.post-41085323629805138862011-03-25T20:05:49.339-07:002011-03-25T20:05:49.339-07:00Thanks for the follow-up.

At first I was using a tape measure to double check the height, after I got it dialed I was just going to put some tape on the wall so I could see where to line it up. But after using it for awhile I never got around to putting tape on the wall, I sort of intuitively know where the correct height is now.House 9https://www.blogger.com/profile/08045832658861127427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3554775196719271875.post-70464353266700107922011-03-23T15:36:01.993-07:002011-03-23T15:36:01.993-07:00I am also looking to purchase a GeekDesk (frame on...I am also looking to purchase a GeekDesk (frame only) or similar.

The sound doesn't actually bother me that much and I have not had the time to tinker with it yet (hopefully this week). <br /><br />They have offered to replace the desk with a new one. If you are thinking about getting one and this is the only hold up - I would go for it. In my opinion the quality is very good and they stand behind their product 100%.House 9https://www.blogger.com/profile/08045832658861127427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3554775196719271875.post-17321579587093846382010-11-13T21:09:02.755-08:002010-11-13T21:09:02.755-08:00Did they ever fix the "crunching" sound?...Did they ever fix the "crunching" sound?-craighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00200515882520695642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3554775196719271875.post-54337469505954528852010-10-29T10:41:06.476-07:002010-10-29T10:41:06.476-07:00Is the www.GeekDesk.com a www.ConSet.us product or...Is the www.GeekDesk.com a www.ConSet.us product or a cheap knockoff?<br /><br />This looks like the same desk:<br />http://www.conset.us/Text/default.aspx?m=text&a=all&id=935-craighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00200515882520695642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3554775196719271875.post-9351903064127722412010-10-27T08:56:58.865-07:002010-10-27T08:56:58.865-07:00This potential future customer of GeekDesk is anxi...This potential future customer of GeekDesk is anxious to see if the crunching gear grinding gets fixed.-craighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00200515882520695642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3554775196719271875.post-44741653207600062092010-10-21T13:57:11.069-07:002010-10-21T13:57:11.069-07:00Cheers, I'll contact you next week; Guess I do...Cheers, I'll contact you next week; Guess I do need to add my email here :)House 9https://www.blogger.com/profile/08045832658861127427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3554775196719271875.post-85563037852176088752010-10-21T13:30:02.661-07:002010-10-21T13:30:02.661-07:00Delighted to see that you like your new GeekDesk! ...Delighted to see that you like your new GeekDesk! Thanks for taking the time to post this, and share your experience. Enthusiasm like yours makes our day! :) <br /><br />After watching the video, just wanted to mention that the "crunchy" sound you are experiencing is certainly not normal. Would love to talk with you about that, to see if we could help diagnose it to get it nice and consistently-quiet for you. Please contact us via our website (www.GeekDesk.com - mention this blog post URL for reference) or email to the e-mail address linked to this comment, if you are up for that. (Didn't see a way to contact you directly via this site, so am leaving this comment instead).<br /><br />Thanks again for buying a GeekDesk! -- we really do appreciate it. : )Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
