The new showroom space takes inspiration from the famous New York showroom, which is located in the Grace Building on Bryant Park, and will provide visitors with the opportunity to immerse themselves in the brand’s design heritage whilst gaining an up-to-date look at the company’s ground-breaking work around environmental stewardship.Ĭommenting on the new Humanscale showroom, Bob King, Founder & CEO of Humanscale said, “Manchester is a vibrant and growing business center.

Since the desk comes with wheels, it’s often described as portable, and one customer says that, while it “rolls easily” across a smooth floor, it’s also sturdy because the wheels have locks.Humanscale, the global leader in beautifully designed ergonomic furniture, opens new showroom in Manchester “I am terrible at putting anything together, and this was a piece of cake,” says a customer who put it together while also caring for her toddler.

It’s also deceivingly roomy, according to a customer who notes that, though the top is on the smaller side, she is able to comfortably fit all the things she needs on the desk, including a “15-inch laptop, two big external drives, mouse and mouse pad, notepad, TV remote,” she says. Though it’s advertised as a laptop cart, many reviewers vouch for its efficacy as a standing desk, since it extends to 33 inches tall. “The top is a good solid wood, and the frame is strong enough to keep everything from wiggling around when I’m typing or moving my mouse around on it,” explains one customer, who likes being able to store it under his couch while he isn’t using it for work. This desk may not look as sturdy as some of the others above, but reviewers say that it is. And for an extra $39 each, you can add up to two powered grommets for convenient phone and laptop charging. You can also choose between a rectangle top or a contoured top with a concave indent at the front, which makes it feel like the desk is lightly hugging your body. “I highly recommend spending the extra $35 for the programmable height switcher, which lets you preset heights that you can switch back and forth just by pressing a button,” he says. But according to news writer Jay Peters, its best quality is that it’s customizable. News editor Nick Statt says it’s one of the best work-from-home purchases he’s made in years, noting that “assembly was far less cumbersome than I thought it would be.” The Fully Jarvis desk is widely loved for its ergonomic and sleek design. The desk comes as small as 30 by 27 inches and as large as 78 by 30 and raises from 24 inches to 50 inches with the touch of a button. “It’s a comfortable, stable, spacious desk that has more versatility than typical desk options,” says deputy editor Dan Seifert, who has one of the larger sizes.
