This is my first Amazon review which should tell you how fantastic this desk is. I feared the lack of reviews when I saw the product was a reflection of the product's quality, so glad I bought it anyway! I also did a ton of research before purchasing a desk and this is the best I found. This is a very sturdy well made desk. The wood looks like something you'd purchase from a high end store ( like a West Elm) and looks even nicer in person. Both surfaces are incredibly easy to clean. The weight is sturdy, but it is still easy to move even without the wheels on and without scratching the hardware floor. The standing feature is SO EASY TO USE and even comes with a way to program it to save your sitting settings and standing setting height. Also comes with the option to put wheels on it, cable organizer, headphone hooks, multiple zip tie type fasteners to line up the cables? The maker really thought of everything. Couldn't have asked for a better product. Something to note (not exactly a con): Between me and my engineer fiance it took about 3-4 hours to assemble. The video shown on the product was more helpful, as the instructions were somewhat vague. Read more
I have been working from home a lot lately, and missed the adjustable desk I used to have at work. When you spend a lot of time working at a desk, the ability to stand really helps you focus and stay productive. The only issue is, most adjustable desks are very pricey. I took a chance on this one ($399.99 for the 63" brown-black model). At first, I wasn't sure if I was going to like the two tone color scheme, and wished I had got all brown wood look to it, but now that I have it setup I like it. The only downside, is the black part seems to attract fingerprints and looks dirty quite a bit. I'm 6ft 3, and I find the upper height to be perfect (47.3 inches). I elected for no wheels as I didn'twant my desk moving, so I didn't put those on, but if you need an extra inch or two, those could help. The top is particle board, I cant say I expected anything different at the price point, but I am a little disappointed that it is in 4 different pieces. The seems are quite noticeable, and I'm not sure how sturdy it will be. I will say though, the desk doesn't wobble much at all, even at the highest setting. This was obviously a packaging choice, as having the top in 6 different pieces allowed for a very small box compared to what I was getting. In fact the packaging was very well done. All in all, this is a great desk and a great value, I will recommend this to anyone looking for an adjustable desk that doesn't cost too much. Read more
This standing desk works exactly as intended. There appear to be multiple versions, all of which have optional casters. My suggestion is to buy this one if a large desk area is necessary, and a smaller one if portability is desired. My only complaint after using it for my full-time job is that the optional drawer assembly is quite flimsy. When the desk is used for sitting, I brushed up against the drawer to the point where it's metal housing bent and the contents fell out. Still, this feature is an optional stopgap and not the main purpose of the desk, so I can't complain much. Read more
I get tired easy from cancer treatments, but I put this together by myself, started in the evening and got most of it done within a couple of hours, finished it in the morning, so maybe a total of 3 hrs. I got hung up on the first step (I saw another reviewer who did also), but for me, it was because the holes in one of the pieces were on the wrong side. After I watched the video and read thru the instructions (including a reviewer's instructions that said to skip that step), I determined that it is really an inconsequential flaw and I was able to move on with no issues. I have to say, the instructions were pretty clear to me, but the video was awesome and I highly recommend watching it before starting. It is very short and I watched it a couple of times, reviewed the written instructions, and then watched the video and paused it at each step so I would have a clear picture of what the written instructions meant for me to do. So far, no issues with raising it up or down or setting it to my preferences for sitting position and standing position. Calibrating (or resetting) after initial set up was easy as well. Read more
I have this desk for just about a month and I love it. The ability to go from sitting to standing and back again with a flick of a switch is outstanding. Assembly is fairly straightforward but a warning. If you are not good at assembling items you will have issues and be frustrated at a couple of the steps. The instructions are basically a series of pictures with just a few written instructions. A couple of hints. Pay particular attention to the position of the lugs that will attach the desk top to the base- they have to face away from the center of the frame. When you attach the frame to the desk top you will need to readjust the spacing on the frame in order to fit the predrilled holes on the desk top. After you have it all together go back a d check the tightness of all the bolts and screws. If you think you will need help in assembly get someone to help you- buy them a pizza and feed them after you are done- you will thank me for this advice. Enjoy the desk. Read more
