[@gamingclipsrsa]

You should get Velcro zip ties for the cable management they work better, plus they are reusable .
Would like get a full review for the dell monitor with mounting arm..
Great content hoping to see more over the year👌🏾.

[@thembakhanye]

I did use velcro ties and man I still couldn’t do neat job 🤣

[@_1Marisa]

Nicely done. 👍🏾Get the desk people to sponsor you so we can get a discount link like the Americans 😅

[@mpendulokona7477]

Cool setup, I’d like to see you review of that curved monitor. 🙌🏼🙌🏼

[@thembakhanye]

I was waiting for this comment! I will do a full review after a month of use. Thanks for watching bro 😘

[@Evilblackmonkey]

Must be a headache trying to cable manage those wires. But cool desk anyways! Simple and sleek

[@brianmkwanazi3601]

[@malcolmcollinable]

So glad I stumbled upon your channel 🔥 don’t know if most of these shops provide affiliate links cause you should really be getting a cut for plugging them.

[@thembakhanye]

Thanks for watching Malcolm. That’s a really good suggestion, thanks. I will follow up on the affiliate links. 👊🏾

[@walnut1069]

I can see some backend under your table 😂😂😂

[@thembakhanye]

😂😂

[@maphekomoloto2961]

nice setup themba, you earned a sub from me... Get a light bar on the monitor it will help a lot......

[@thembakhanye]

Thanks for watching! I do want a light bar, but they're hard to find locally. Do u have a suggestion?

[@laurenhammersley5127]

Cool setup... trying to plan my setup now... just a question - How do you deal with Loadshedding to keep the monitor powered?

[@thembakhanye]

Thanks for watching Lauren. I uploaded a video on my backup power solution that I use during load shedding

[@boitumelomahlobo723]

That's a nice setup. What's the hype with mechanical rising desks?

[@thembakhanye]

Got it cos I sit too much in front of the computer :D --- so far so good, no more backaches

[@ThabisoRatlou]

A year later, do you still think the table frame was the best purchase?

[@thozimusic]

The monitor is cool but I'm shocked that at 18K, it only peaks at 60hz

[@shantanufadnisrides]

Hey bud! Nice video. A question around the desk - Does it support custom height adjustment or only has 3 levels that we can set it to?

[@thembakhanye]

It goes up really high, up to about 1.6metres. There are 3 buttons that you can assign with preferred height, or u can just use the arrow up and down to adjust to your liking.

[@shantanufadnisrides]

@@thembakhanye thank bud! What's the lowest height setting?

[@tebzamarembula]

Please a review on the monitor

[@thembakhanye]

I will do that soonest, scout's honor. Thanks for watching!

[@nhlanhlardlamini7043]

how much is the whole system I like it

[@thamihlophe8599]

Where did you get the monitor ?

[@hiroshi20898]

woo

[@EishMaNn]

Hi Themba,
Great video and awesome setup. I am looking at purchasing the same height adjustable desk from PC link.
1. How has it been since purchasing it? Day to day usage
2. Is the quality good and does it wobble when using it in a standing position?
3. Would you recommend purchasing it at its current price of R5700?
Thank you

[@thembakhanye]

+Jared Naidoo Hey Jared, first off thanks for watching. I work from home full time, so I’ve been using the desk literally everyday. It is very sturdy, no wobble even with the heavy top and all the stuff I have stacked on it. Maybe I should do a review?
So far I haven’t experienced any issues with it. However, now that we have load shedding, the desk will remain in its current position until the power is back and I do hate that controller goes to sleep and when u need to use it u kind of have tap it and wait a bit for it to light up.

[@EishMaNn]

@@thembakhanye Hi Themba, thanks for the information. Yeah you should do a review as this table is carried by many of the sa online retailers (This is a rebranded table by a company called Lumi). Another popular desk sold in SA is the TekDesk 2.0 sold by deskstand (also eems like a rebranded desk made by Loctek) however this desk is much more expensive (They offer an addition guarantee though). The Equip desk is so much cheaper, so a review would definitely be useful for buyers.
I ended up getting a TekDesk with a wooden top from Leroy Merlin as I could not find any reviews for this Equip desk online. Only one video was made and that was yours.
All in all great video and content.

[@barakahsamwel9537]

Where it found

[@io_inc]

I noticed that you docked your MacBook, don't do that. it's bad for heat dissipating , when your laptop sucks in air, it will hit the screen and can cause damage to your computer thus leading to components overheating on the logic board as the hot air doesn't have enough exhaust exit.
I used to do the very same thing, plus I'm a programmer and always doing heavy tasks which lead to the death of my MacBook.
