LeetDesk Pro Review: Steam Deck Checker Is Impressed

Please note: this video is in German. If you would like to follow along, you can switch on YouTube's automatic subtitles.

Fabi from Steam Deck Checker now has a LeetDesk Pro as the new base for gaming and work. The video goes from unboxing and assembly to the finished setup, and the verdict is already in the title: the desk is a hit.

The desk in the video has a 160 x 80 cm tabletop in Dark, a Leet Orange edge, the Cockpit shape and a black Desk Frame, plus a cable tray and PC holder. As the video also says: we provided the desk, and no other money changed hands.

Delivery and assembly

The desk arrived in three packages and, according to Fabi, was very well packed. The accessories could have been packed a little more compactly, and we are taking that on board. The printed instructions were in English, which was not a problem in the test, as they are also available as a PDF on our website and as an assembly video. Our "Elevate Your Game" guide went down especially well, with tips in German and English on ergonomics, exercises and the right chair and desk height.

The desk and frame took a comfortable hour to hour and a half. Fabi has experience assembling furniture, but thinks the desk is very doable for everyone else too. The cable tray was mounted in no time, while the PC holder needs a little more care because its width has to match your own PC.

The LeetDesk Pro in everyday use

The desk travels between 63 and 128 cm at 38 mm per second and can barely be heard in the video. Three heights can be saved, for example one for sitting and one for standing.

Stability when standing mattered to Fabi, because the previous, cheaper desk used to rattle. With the LeetDesk Pro nothing wobbles in normal use, even at maximum height. It only rattles a little if you use some force. The anti-collision system worked in the test: when pressure is applied to the desk, it travels back a short distance.

The Ghost Touch coating on the black tabletop reduces fingerprints, which the test confirms. Dust, on the other hand, shows up a little sooner on black.

PC holder and accessories

The PC, which weighs around 15 to 20 kg, sits securely in the PC holder, and nothing rattles when the desk moves up and down. Raising the desk also makes it easy to reach the ports from behind. The cable tray has room for power supplies or a USB hub. From our other accessories, Fabi mentions the MiniPeg and the Power Flak, among others. With two sockets plus USB-A and USB-C with up to 65 W, the Power Flak can serve as a charging spot for a Steam Deck.

The verdict

The video is open about the price: Fabi calls it steep and says they would not necessarily have been willing to spend that much beforehand. After the test, the assessment changes: better to spend proper money once. The LeetDesk Pro is recommended for anyone who works, games and edits videos in the same spot.
