The desk is called Cashemwre White and in the matching photographs on the website appears to be a light neutral grey. Unfortunately it is a beige which borders on blush, along with fairly warm white legs, looking quite silly with a standard white and light grey mouse. Not the modern, clean aesthetic I bought into. The marketing photo of the person in a clean white shirt would look silly in real life, and that’s me now.

Further, the paint finish in the crevice is rough, showing ridges. I’m considering repainting the top of the new desk as a result.

Hardware quality and assembly ease earned a star.

I had yet to learn how much my work and day-to-day experience would change using the Tenon desk. I wanted to experience the health benefits of a standing desk. Additionally, I needed something that I could sit at for Zoom meetings.

The adjustable height desk appealed to me because of its minimal appearance. It could fit in almost any room in my house. Setting it up with the instructions, though it was apparent how the parts fit together. The touchscreen interface or app to adjust from sitting to standing was seamless.

I am continually inspired to be more productive with the Tenon. I love being at my desk! The Creek kept my cables hidden, which minimized distractions. My new setup includes my desktop and my laptop on the Slant accessory.

I already love my desk and have started doing most of my work and other tasks at this desk. I am so glad that I don’t have to share it!
