This desk is true to its name, as it completely envelops you when configured correctly. For shorter people, in particular, this is indeed a revolutionary product. It is the desk equivalent to sitting in an ergonomic office chair for the first time. Once you correctly configure the Envelop, you realize how much back and shoulder discomfort a standard desk can cause. The caveats that follow are more a product of my enormous satisfaction with the product; I have never spent this much time thinking about a piece of furniture. There could be some improvements. The desk has a tendency to vibrate. If you are a particularly "heavy-handed" typist, this is not the desk for you. The metal tray that is exposed when the desk surface is deployed to its most "rolled down" setting, seems to serve no utilitarian purpose and is unsightly. The designers should make it usable or cover it. Finally, don't lose the thumbscrews! I almost threw them out with the packaging before realizing that they were essential to maintaining a particular desk surface setting. The instructions were not very clear on this point.
What I LikeWarranty, Color Choices, Ergonomic
What I Dislikevibration, requires assembly
Yes, I recommend this product.

Is it compatible with Aeron chair?
Would you recommend using it with Aeron chair or it is actually designed to work together with Embody chair only?
We use it with the Aeron chair, and it is great. You may wish to use an "arm-less" Aeron chair, however, as the desk surface rolls not only toward you, but down, as well. Depending on your height, the fully rolled down desk surface can hit the arms of an Aeron chair.
