 Design

It is built to the measurement of 35.8 inches in height, 23.43 inches in depth, 51.0 inches in width which includes all the accessories, and 40.0 inches in width for just the tabletop and it has a good load-bearing capacity of 100lbs.

The monitor stand can also be detached from the tabletop to provide more space if its integration does not suit your purpose.

The design of this rectangular-shaped desk incorporates basic accessories needed to provide extra comfort while working, gaming, writing, or studying. It is available in three different colors which are red, black, and blue which provides either uniformity or perfect contrast in whatever room that is placed in.

Its legs are sturdy and steel-framed with a K-leg design that is intelligently connected to fit perfectly on both even and uneven ground to improve its stability so that it does not wobble when it is being used.

This desk can be used as both a gaming desk and a computer desk as well as for other purposes such as reading, writing, and studying. This versatility makes it a suitable fit for both a living room and a bedroom.

Features

What catches the attention of a lot of people when they see this desk are the accessories built into it. The Amazon Basics gaming/computer desk is packed with a lot of features which makes it one of the most sought-after compact-sized desks.

These features include a cup holder that is well-positioned to hold your drinks without spilling them on the gaming desk and damaging your computer or computer accessories, a headphone holder, charging platform/ports for charging smartphones, and tablets, a detachable monitor stand, that can support big – sized monitors, an under-desk basket and a 5-slot game storage shelf In place of storage drawers.

Stability

This compact-sized desk has all the basic features that you’ll need to secure a comfortable win while gaming as well as improves your productivity in the office. It is well-rated for its stability, credit to the high-quality materials, and the K-leg design that provides extra stability while supporting a weight of up to 100lbs without any sign of wobbling. Its monitor stand is also well built with top-quality materials to support monitors that weigh up to 30lbs.

Surface

Unlike the legs which are steel-framed, the surface of this desk is carbon laminated with a textured design that makes it unsuitable for writing and perfect mouse precision in some cases. To such effect, we would recommend a mouse pad to provide a smooth surface for the accurate precision of your mouse without scratching the desk surface, or a desk pad if you will do a lot of writing so that you can have a smooth surface to write on.

Also built on the surface of this desk is a monitor stand that can support monitors that are up to 32 inches and weigh up to 30lbs. The monitor stand can also be easily removed to improve its functionality for a particular purpose.

Also on the surface of this desk is a charging platform that can be used to charge smartphones and tablets without disrupting the organization of your gaming desk.

Ergonomics

With all the beauty, and glory of the Amazon Basics Gaming /computer chair, it is sadly not big on ergonomics. It is not height adjustable, nor does it have a keyboard tray that places the keyboard on the same level with your hands when typing. Nevertheless, the compact design of the Amazon Basics gaming/computer chair makes it better suited for small spaces and this places everything within your reach, hence you don’t need to strain your arms to get across the table

It has wide legroom and a great tabletop which makes it easy and comfortable to sit in closer to the desk when working.

Cable Management

This Amazon basic gaming/computer desk is built with lots of accessory features that are designed to make gaming a fun and leisure activity. These features are highly crucial to the functionality of this gaming desk.

Sadly, this gaming desk is not built with any cable management feature such as a cable tray or cable holes.  To professionally keep your cables in place and prevent cable clutter and tangling, you’ll have to install a cable management accessory of your choice.
