What is Certified Open Box Gear?

At Sweetwater, we're so picky that what we call "Certified Open Box" is actually better than what most music retailers sell as "new" gear! Our gear hasn't endured hundreds of people a week plunking away at all the keyboards, fumbling through Stairway to Heaven on every guitar or playing with every fader and knob on a mixer or control surface.

Certified Open Box (also known as a demo) means we’ve had it out of the box for our YouTube channel, displayed at events, tested in our studio, or maybe it was in a customer’s hands for a few days and isn’t ‘factory fresh’ as a result. Every Certified Open Box item we sell has Sweetwater’s 2-year Total Confidence Coverage™ warranty and has been tested and verified up to ‘new’ specs by our factory-authorized technicians to make sure it’s in perfect working order before we ship it to you.

When you buy a Certified Open Box item at Sweetwater, you get:
  • 2-year Total Confidence Coverage Warranty™!
  • Products inspected and tested by our factory-authorized techs, guaranteed to function like new (or better)!
  • FREE shipping on most items
  • Equipment that will MEET or EXCEED your expectations!

Great for home studio!
Bought this desk for a 2 room home studio. My control room is not the biggest so I needed something small but functional and this checks all the boxes. I added the optional monitor wings which were a solid add on. The two 4u racks have improved my work flow quite a bit by allowing me to have my interface and pre amps at arms reach rather than having to reach down to a side rack. Desk looks good, is built well and also has a convenient cable tray in back to keep everything clean. Would definitely recommend!

Great studio desk!
Got this to replace a standard task tank I was using for my studio desk. Very happy with it. Easy to assemble. Love that it had built-in rackmounts for my outboard gear. Also got the matching monitor stands for my KRK-5's.
Great priced studio desk
I purchased this deak a few weeks ago for my studio refurb. Desk was well packed for shipping. Assembly was pretty easy with proper tools. Took about half hour to fully assemble. The look is very sharp, the racks are perfect, love the adjustable height. I put it at recommended height and it was perfect.
I was alittle peeved with the "keyboard" tray! I am using a native instruments 49 key controller and it will not fit on tray unless you leave it slid out. Flatter controllers should be no problem but there is only about 2" of space between keyboard tray and bottom of desk.
So, i had to set my controller on top of the desk that i was expecting to use as a clean an open space. No a deal breaker though
Good quality, great price, great looks, sturdy
Wish keyboard tray depth allowed room for a standard controller

Inexpensive way to give your space a professional look
I had a sit/stand desk that I built myself prior to this. It worked fine, but I wasn't using the standing option very much and it really looked messy and unprofessional because cables were everywhere. Now that things are organized into the rack space and all of the cables are tucked away in back, the space looks a lot more like what a client expects when they walk into a Recording Studio. The desk is comfortable to work at and the available adjustments worked well in customizing the feel. For the price, it's hard to go wrong.
Good layout, some durability concern
I love the layout of this desk and it works out well for me. My only concern being that when it is fully loaded the weight of the desk plus several rack units, a computer monitor and midi keyboard it seems a bit much for the legs which are held together with a pair of bolts each. I am very careful moving it even just a few inches. I would feel a lot better if there were some steel reinforcement around this critical load bearing point.

The construction was straightforward and it arrived in good condition despite the fed-ex delays which have become the norm. The rack space holds my focusrite 8pre interface, an eleven rack, a power conditioner and I mounted my Mac mini into a rack shelf and put a vent blank over it. Shelf holds my 32" monitor. The roll out tray is neither deep enough nor sturdy enough for my midi controller but I put that on the top and use the tray for the computer keyboard, mouse and trackpad. I also found enough room for my UA Solo 610 up there on the top deck. Monitor speakers I have on their own stands I would not trust this desk to hold that additional weight.

This is a good value. It is a bit small for a studio desk, but for those of us with small spaces it's a "good fit".
