Im in love with this desk. Never knew there were relatively affordable motorized standing desks this easy to purchase before. Love IT!! One thing to be aware of though, is that you may want a proper monitor arm mount too. If youre built like me (normal, I think), the height you may want your monitor while seated may be lower than the height you want your monitor while standing. A monitor mount is probably the best way to achieve all desired positions without it becoming a task every time you switch from seated to standing and back. I typically switch between sitting and standing a few times per day, so I really appreciate convenience. The memory presets on this desk, which allow me to instantly set the height to any level I want and recall it with one button push is awesome. My only VERY minor gripe is that its a bit slow / like maybe 5 / 10 seconds depending on the distance. Not a big deal at all though. Assembly was pretty easy and didnt take too long. You might want to have a small, simple electric screw driver though / itll help assembly time a fair bit. Build quality is pretty good and fit/finish feel good too. I would worry a little bit if I needed to move to a new house about how to carry this thing. I think under the nice finish is just particle board or something similar. So, Id think twice before lifting this desk by the desk part only, with heavy legs dangling and connected to the desk (wooden boards) by many little screws in particle board. It might be fine due to how many screws are connecting everything, but like I said, Id think twice about it. Also, because its particle board, youll want to be careful not to over/tighten screws while assembling, which the instructions call out too. Having said that though, Id still say its good build quality overall. It has thoughtful touches like the little retaining clips to pinch any cables you bring through its two punchout holes and the cable management box which currently holds my power strip and the simple but functional drawer.
Great product, very happy, wifes jealous, cant complain!
I asked for rustic, I sincerely didnt know how it would look like; however, even though is not solid wood, as I use to have in my place, I love it. The table comes in two pieces, something that does not look bad, most if you know it comes in pieces. The only thing is the wires that I going to arrange inside an small box the desk has. You can put and extension in that box for your computer, Alexa, and the table and one only cable will be out to the outlet . I think it would look more tidy instead to having all the cables hanging from the table to the outlet.
My reason for three stars: The base is great and it looks very sturdy. The controls work well. The user can set four presets to heights as opposed to holding the up and down button it will adjust to that specified height! The only thing I wasnt a fan of is the tabletop itself. I was honestly expecting a one/piece wooden slab for the top. Instead I got a two/piece sheet of particle board. (This is why the instructions advise you not to over tighten screws.) The table was also not as wide as I expected it to be (48 36) in reality (48 24). The drawer looks very cheap as well but I was expecting it to look that way.
Im overall pretty happy with this desk. My main problem is that if I sit down and the arm of my chair gets stuck under the desk, it will easily flip the whole desk backwards and spill my drink. Other than that, great desk.
Pros:
/ Sturdy desk
/ Countertop looks nice and doesnt feel weak
/ The programed buttons are great and make it easy to raise/lower
/ Enough room for two monitors, and a laptop + keyboard/mice
Cons:
/ Space is a little tight for my speakers so wish it was just a TAD bigger
/ Drawer is a little flimsy
The worst thing about this is probably the flimsy drawer but I never intended to use it in the first place so its not going to affect this review that much.
Assembly was fairly easy. So far I can say Im very happy with the purchase. The desk wobble a bit on standing position Im pretty sure thats the case for every standing desk so not a deal breaker.
I dont plan to have a regular desk after this desk . I love standing up and working away. It has helped my sciatic never pain and I feel less stressed on a daily basis, especially when I work over 8 hrs and stand up. Its also nice to have the flexibility to stretch and move around.

Perfect desk and size, easily for long working hours.

Low Quality Wood
Firstly it was not easy to assemble and the wood quality was good cheap. Totally it was not worth buying for the amount you spend for
Know?
Good!
Decent Desk. Just About Serves its Pourpose.

Great value. Not so stable.

Happy customer

Nice desk
Tricky to build
Stand up desk
I dont plan to have a regular desk after this desk . I love standing up and working away. It has helped my sciatic never pain and I feel less stressed on a daily basis, especially when I work over 8 hrs and stand up. Its also nice to have the flexibility to stretch and move around.
