PC Desk Costs more than a Grand! : Corsair Platform 4 Review

It’s been roughly a year since Corsair launched their first desk, the Platform:6, and while it fell short in a few areas, it’s solid and is still going strong in Mat's studio a year later. Well, Corsair are now adding to their desk offerings with the release of the Platfor4 – a smaller and more compact unit which offers the same modular design and sit/stand functionality. However, coming in at over a grand depending on the colour option you choose, is the Platform 4 worth it?

Pros
• Great build quality
• Premium desk finish and solid wood construction (on more expensive models)
• Low noise and good quality dual motor sit/stand functionality
• Modular design allows the use of side extension panels, pegboards and other accessories
• Easy to assemble
• Convenient desktop storage and charging

Cons
• Expensive
• Lacklustre cable management options
• Plastic cable tray should be metal considering the price
• Only a single monitor arm included where the Platform 6 comes with a dual monitor arm
• Monitor arm can make it hard to place the desk flat against a wall
• No included shelves for us with the T cross rail
