Are built-in power grommets or power modules in a straight desk worth the upgrade?

Built-in power grommets (cable-management holes) are almost always worth having — they let you route cables from the desk surface down to a power strip below, keeping the surface cleaner. Grommets without built-in power are standard on most commercial desks. Built-in power modules (outlets and USB ports embedded in the desk surface or a grommet housing) are a bigger upgrade and genuinely convenient — charging devices and plugging in equipment without reaching behind or under the desk. The practicality depends on your setup: if you frequently plug/unplug devices (presenting from a laptop, hot-desking), built-in power saves real time. For a fixed workstation that rarely changes configuration, a quality power strip is nearly as convenient. FindOfficeFurniture.com — call 888-719-4960.
