Can the top shelf be adjusted down to within 16-20" of the monitor desktop. I would prefer not to have 55" of height hiding my library.

If I understand your question - mine is at 22" desktop to top shelf - this is the lowest it is set-up for from the factory. You could go less but you would have to drill some holes - certainly could be done with a little effort.

I do not believe so. I measured the top of the desk to the first shelf and it was only 19 inches.

There is plenty of room--the height from the desk to the top shelf is 28 1/2"-my PC monitor measures 16" in height an my tower which I have next to my monitor is 12" in height---I have the top shelf at the highest it can be and I love the desk unit.

i personally think you can and if you're handy you can modify it by placing a large board on top of the bottom shelf.that should do the trick

Then shelves are NOT adjustable. There is 10" between top and bottom shelves. The shelves are extremely solid tho. The .300" dark tempered glass would break before the shelves flexed.

Yes it is adjustable. It was perfect for my needs. I have the shelf positioned to accommodate something 14.75" tall on the bottom which leaves 8.75" on the top shelf. There is another position even above the one I have my shelf at which would allow something 16.75". It was a good purchase, easy to put together and I am very pleased with it.

Yes its is possible to adjust the height of these shelves according to one's need. There are total shelves including the bottom most one. The height is enough to fit in any media device or rack server.

I just read the other response---I didn't realize shelf distances were adjustable. Now that I do, I will be making some adjustments.

The bottom shelf can be adjusted (with difficulty) but the edges of the shelf are kind of sharp and it would be hard to sit under it without hurting yourself

The gap is 15". I wanted to do the same thing with the desk. My desktop is about 20" high, but I was able to make it work pretty easily by not adding the small upper shelf on that side. It was easy to put together without it and it doesn't compromise the structural integrity of the desk at all. It's actually one of the few desks that I've found that actually works well for that. (In fact, there was even room for me to park a couple of external hard drives on the lower shelf with the desktop with plenty of breathing room.)

We've been extremely pleased with this desk. Five stars! It will take some time to assemble, however. If you pull the shelf out more, then the desktop won't be secure or have enough support. So, the answer to your question is "no".

The central shelf is not adjustable. The shelf above and below the central shelf are adjustable. Hope this helps.

You can adjust it to various heights. I have 2 1/2" from my desktop to the bottom of the monitors. They are 22" monitors.

Mine Monitor is only 19 inches and I have room for speakers, phone, small lamp and mouse. However if you have a 24 inch, you would only have 3 extra inched to put anything on desk top. Top is very sturdy and I love mine and never worry about it. Hope this helps as if all you are going to put on top shelf, you will like this desk...

As I have it set up, the lower (keyboard) shelf is 28 inches above the floor. The casters account for 5-1/2 inches of that height. The top shelf is 3 inches higher than the lower shelf. It appears the desk could be assembled to be 1 inch lower than that. What you see in the picture is what you get. it is not adjustable after assembly. If that fits your needs, it is a very sturdy desk and I am well satisfied with it.

The shelves are screwed into the unit. They don't allow for the shelf height to be adjusted.
