I went with autonomous. I was a bit hesitant as they come off as more of a marketing company than a quality desk company. With that said, I’ve used the desk for a few months now and I’m very happy with it. Definitely a recommend from me.

I use the Tresanti in black, great desk the outlets on the side of the desk are lifesaving. Along with the glass desktop it’s nice to write on it with marker.

Try progressive desk. I have it for 4 months now. Very sturdy. You can customize the table when you order. Delivery was smooth and on time. You have to put together the desk and that might take 2-3 hours. Overall I would give it a 4.5/5. I think the table will last for 2-3 years easily as it is strong and well built. I feel bad that they don’t market it enough which makes people not recognize the brand and buy it more.

Find it’s to pricey compared to other tables in market. Tho the custom built aspect is a good sell.

Thanks guys. I’m going ahead with the Tresanti one, will keep you posted on it.
