Is it easy to move or do you have to have a specialized standing desk to use with it? I'd like to use it at my regular desk with my laptop on a lift.

It has two wheels on the front and customers often mention how easy it is to move. Customers have used it at a low desk with a laptop up on a stand. You need two feet of width and two feet of depth for it to slide under the desk, which most office desks have.

I use the treadmill under my regular desk. I purchased the TALL Speedy Standup Desk here on Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00B5SY94E/ref=wms_ohs_product?ie=UTF8&psc;=1) to elevate my laptop. Be sure to get the TALL version, as the extra few inches compensate for the height of the treadmill. The desk is really sturdy and it works great for me.

It's relatively easy to move - it has wheels at the heavy end. You don't need a specialized desk - just bear in mind the desk needs to be 3-4 in inches higher up than when you are standing on the floor. I've had really good experiences with this treadmill overall and have one at home and the office.

It's better to use it on a table. If you use it on your lap, it is slightly uncomfortable. I would recommend to use a laptop stand or something similar to balance it. Still love it, though.

Moving it is doable but clumsy. I would not look forward to moving it each time in order to use it. It would be better just folded up in the room of use.

It would be very diffcult to move. Carpet would be bad, very small wheels. Hardwood or tile would be a little better, but not much. You cannot use the slider to move from side to side, it will bend to pin that holds it in place. All that said, it is great exercise machine if left in one place. I use it every day.

The desk is not attached. You just move it back a few feet and run...I do both. I walk on it at about 2.3 mph and then move the desk and run. I have a regular treadmill. It takes 10 seconds to move the desk back and out of the way....You can also use it as a standing desk without a treadmill but you would have to lower it a bit when it's not being used in conjunction with the treadmill.

Awesome! hmm.. Keep in mind that the base of the stand that would be touching the flat surface is shaped like a "T". I imagine that you're considering using the stand in your lap with the top of the "T" sitting across your thighs and the stem of the "T" sorta under your bum. I just tried this with my crane stand and i find that although the base is fairly stable, the position of my laptop would either be too close or too high no matter how it's adjusted. I also tried flipping the bottom stem the opposite way so, from a profile view, the stand is shaped like a "Z"; in this case it's not very stable because the bottom stem of the "T" is extended out past the couch (might possibly work if you have a couch with a deep seat). Overall, I wouldn't recommend doing this. I can only see this stand as useful if you need your laptop higher than your tabletop or in my case, as a DJ where it elevates my laptop above my mixer case. Maybe you could try searching for a "lap desk" and see if that application might fit your situation better.

I use a mouse exclusively with a 15" laptop. I just move my laptop to a slight angle to get more room. The desk is stable enough that it doesn't tilt when I do.

No, it cannot be moved. Otherwise, it is a very nice and spacious desk. I like it a lot. A word of caution: The two sections are shipped in two boxes and they are extremely heavy. You will need at least 3 or 4 stout individuals to unload it from the truck. I live on a second floor and I hired professional movers to get it there. Good luck if you decide to buy it. A very handsome desk.

The desktop is attached. Looks like it is attached with a couple of long screws. You could loosen it, but I don't think it is simple. When I've moved by desk, it takes to people to lift it.

We lift and move ours all the time, no problem. But it's kind of an awkward shape to carry up & down a long staircase. Maybe if you did it all the time you'd get used to it - I don't know.

I use it without the rear elevated platform, the holes in the top aren't really noticeable. I also didn't use the keyboard tray since I use a laptop daily and have no need for it. It makes the perfect desk in my home office and I truly enjoy the fact that it has plenty of room for my laptop and second monitor.

Ira, did you end up getting it and using for a desk/workstation? If so, please let me know your thoughts. It's my understanding you can make it level, which I think would be more comfortable and make it slower. Thanks!

Its great for lap tops & ipads. Desk top computer would be too heavy for stand.

I have had no problem with keyboard movement. The large pad allows me to have greater range without lifting the mouse. I like it a lot. If you are a neat freak you will find that the large black surface shows dust and other things that drop on it. All you have to do is pick it up and shake it off.

it is not easy to move as it is awkward to pick up the handle so the support stand clears the ground. I'm 5'11" and it can be difficult. I've found that it easier to push it

It moves very easily on my wood floors. I move it from a bedroom to the great room without a problem. It's mobility was a main factor in my purchase and I haven't been disappointed.

Believe it or not--yes. I just brought my laptop down to try it out. There is a slight wobble but that's possibly because i don't have the laptop secured in the straps, etc. I just set it on top. I'm not sure this would replace my standing desk/ledge, because it's not completely motionless, but it does completely hold a laptop sturdily enough to type. I hope that helps! (and note, the laptop in question is fairly heavy--older vintage MacBook Pro, fwiw.)
