While generally considered stable and sturdy, some users reported minor flexing of the tabletop, particularly under pressure or with heavier equipment. Dark colored versions are particularly susceptible to fingerprints and dust. The overall consensus, however, remains highly positive regarding value and ease of assembly. The size is frequently praised, offering ample workspace. One user noted that the legs are not adjustable.
