The best in its class
Before buying the AMARIAN ROTATABLE WORK DESK, I looked at a few hundred alternative products online, and a few dozen afterwards too... Conclusion: In my eyes, it remains the best in its class, whereby I give it 10 out of 10 points in terms of design/appearance and 8/10 in terms of functionality after two weeks of use.
Let's start with the functionality aspects, where the table has met my expectations.
- The slim design is deceptive; it stands rock solid thanks to an 8 kg base plate.
- Almost a unique selling point is the infinitely variable position of the table top in three ways: height, rotation and tilt.
- The inclined position makes it easier to work with a notebook or tablet and to read books; a metal rail held by magnets prevents it from sliding down.
Now to my points of criticism.
- When I had finished screwing it together, I was surprised to realise that the table could only be tilted to one side. I would have liked to have known this beforehand, and I would have liked to have been given a reason as well as a hint as to what to do if I prefer the other tilting direction (turn the table top 180° and screw it down again).
- The rubber feet that are glued to the underside of the base plate are inferior. The adhesive has already come off one of them, which is why I had to replace it.
- In any case, rubber feet are unsuitable for a piece of furniture that is moved frequently; they slow it down enormously. My remedy: a small towel, on which the rather heavy table glides elegantly across the parquet floor.
A word about the despatch: packaging, delivery time, communication all in order, rating good.
