I’m super happy with this. I only have a very small space to work in and this fits perfectly.
It’s very quiet when changing positions and helps me to keep moving whilst working a busy job.
I managed to build it on my own with a little help from my son to get it in to position because it’s quite heavy.
Easy to build very study and love that it has charging ports on the side usb and usb type c. Love that it adjusts to accommodate tall people. Highly recommend
is a breeze to assemble, making it a great choice for those who appreciate simplicity. Its compact design is perfect for small spaces, and the memory smart panel adds a convenient touch to customize your standing desk experience effortlessly. Highly recommended for anyone looking for an easy-to-build and space-efficient standing desk solution!
Having a desk job and often working long hours I wasn’t comfortable sitting down for so long. Tried out a standing desk at work and then decided to get one at home. Very happy with it. Good size with space for two monitors. It has the ability to store settings if you want the desk at a specific height.
I bought a Flexi spot sit/standing desk a few years ago. So when my partner’s old desk gave up I suggested he replace with a sit/stand.
This desk is very easy to assemble, simple to operate, and very reasonably priced to other brands.
Really easy to assemble and it looks really chic! The ability to move to desk up so that you can stand at it is a great feature. The desk even has buttons which allow you to set your preferred heights, so you can change the height through a click of a singular button. It’s also really good quality, I can tell it will be durable.
I absolutely LOVE this desk! I work from home full time and being sat for long periods of time often gives me an uncomfortable backache. However this product allows me to be able to stand whilst working, taking the strain off my back and feel more productive! The height differences are brilliant and it was very quick and easy to fit together. The sound when adjusting the desk height is very minimal and so smooth when transitioning. I’m absolutely in love!
Excellent instructions and very easy to put together, it took less than an hour solo. I’m 6ft 2 and the desk rises high enough for me, with a little room to spare if you’re taller, I would expect it to be fine up to about 6ft 4. When fully erect, there is a little wobble, but nothing too distracting when just typing or playing games normally. Overall I am very happy with my purchase, it was 200 in the sale and at that price it’s a steal.
I love how easy it was to put together and how it looks. The desk can move up so you can stand and down for seated work. Easy to adjust with the panel at the front. It’s sturdy and easy to clean. A perfect desk for a office or child’s room for homework.
This is a great desk. It was easy to put together and easy to change the height settings. Very sturdy desk to hold heavy computer equipment
It has made working from home so much better.
Brilliant piece of kit.
Has hooks on the side which are perfect for handing headphones on. USB super fast charging ports are unbelievable and a good size solid sturdy desk.
Also highly recommend the 20 quid assembly service – they take all the rubbish away which is worth it itself!
Highly recommend
he desk is simple to assemble, the materials feels of a good quality, the height adjustably is great(can work standing) if you are spending a lot of time working
Super sturdy, really easy to build, mechanics are smooth
I was worried the 120*60 was going to be too small but I have enough room for my laptop & a monitor – perfect for WFH if all you need is something basic
The item arrived quickly, and although it took time to put together, it was fairly easy and straightforward.
The top is a sturdy single piece. Absolutely loved the sitting and standing functions.
Would definitely buy again if I needed a second one.
Easy instructions, everything went where it should, and got a nifty Philips screwdriver with it.
Seems stable at all heights, although I do t have much on it. Top is one piece as opposed to other makes.
Looks good. Very quiet motor. Perfect for my needs.
After my old wooden desk cracked, I decided to buy a new one made of steel. I was looking for a durable desk, and Flexispot exceeded my expectations. I love the ability to switch between sitting and standing throughout the day, and the USB port is a convenient feature. It’s easy to adjust and is quiet. Overall, I’m very happy with it and would recommend it to anyone looking for a durable and versatile desk.
Just upgraded my desk to this electric standing desk and over the moon with it.
Easy to put together and not as heavy as other reviews suggest.
All works great, quality great too – glad I went with a one piece desk top.
Delivery not on original date but good electronic customer service kept me up to date.
Thank you
Love this table so much! Settings are very helpful and easy to adjust.
I love that there is both a USB-C and USB-A port so I can charge my phone with my fast charger and have a spare one for headphones or keyboard.
The table does jolt when it first starts moving and when it stops but I have a monitor and laptop mounted onto the table so it’s doing pretty well with that weight. The height adjusts so smoothly.
I love the cable tidy stickers that come with the table! So you can adjust to wherever you need them.
I highly recommend this table.
I don’t usually leave reviews but i am absolutely amazed by this desk, such an improvement compared to my old desk. It was quite easy to setup, despite me not being too good at fixing up furniture. The quality is outstanding and can easily lift my whole setup (see pictures). Tidying the cables was easy to do with this desk (I brought cable trunking separately, as mine didn’t come with the cable tray). The panel is also easy to use to make the desk go up and down. Beware though this desk is heavy, so make sure you put it in place before putting your stuff on.
Also please note: You will need to drill holes yourself for the panel. I stuck mine to the desk via 3M double sided sticky pads and it holds well.
This is an expensive unit and this table does not have USB feature. There are other same kind of tables in the market provides some extra features with the table which makes life more easy
Since working from home full time been eying with a standing desk for a while. All the once you can normally get in ikea and other places are just to big as I don’t have much space it is London after all. So when I ordered this one and put it up I was so happy. It fits perfectly and comes with all the benefits of automatically adjusting to standing hight or seated position which you can program adjusted to you. It has a big enough work surface to fit all the accessories on there and is easy to clean. Absolutely love it.
Really reasonable for the price, and relatively easy to put together on your own. A good size for working from home, and really handy to be able to set your sit and stand heights and change with a button press. Can be a little noisy when in motion, but not enough to put me off!
The USB and USB-c charging points in the control panel were a pleasant surpise and have proved really handy.
Hopeful that this will last for a good while, and pleased with the purchase.
Very nice desk. Easy to assemble, study and looks good
First I would like to say I’m really happy with the desk. Good quality and a nice upgrade I went for the 120x60cm and it fits my needs. Comes in one box delivered from flexispot by DHL next day.
Couple of honest issues firstly given someone else’s tracking number which was weird contacted seller and was rectified blamed warehouse issues ( this didn’t effect promised delivered date still had desk one day before delivery estimate given)
Another issue I see is reported was no screws for attaching controller keypad. I had some self tappers slightly longer than the ones supplier for the hooks ( if you don’t want the hooks and think you would use them screws I think they would be too short) and this did the job.
Overall really pleased
Easy to put together and just what I was after. Great desk.
Very easy to setup and really sturdy. The motor is quiet and perfect standing and sitting desk. Overall very satisfied.
The desk is great and was fairly simple to assemble. I had one faulty part and it was sent as quickly as possible from Germany with no issues and good communication.
Now that I am working from home, the Flexispot height adjustamentdesk has been a bless. I am really enjoying all its features and it looks great in my office.
Great product. Very good quality. One of the most useful products I have bought. Love the table. Easy assembly. Beautiful, elegant and simple product design. Would recommend anytime.
Completely love this desk. The adjustable thing makes more comfortable to be used by everyone in the house. I will definitely recommend this product.
Very easy to assemble. It has settings which you can save and easily adjust the height in accordance to your preference during the working hours.
It has a USB port for charging phone or to connect a desk lamp.
Great value for money and high quality
I purchased this Standing Desk as I have to sit at a desk all day every day, so I wanted the option to be able to stand up to work on some projects or when I do my client Zoom Calls… Really pleased with how it’s working out and would highly recommend
I don’t normally do reviews but this deserves one. Easy to put together took about 10 mins. Very very sturdy. Does exactly what we hoped it would do. You can put it at any height you want with 4 presets as well. My partner hates sitting down all day and now she doesn’t have to when she wants to stand up press 1 button and she’s away. Motor is quick and smooth. Highly recommended product in my opinion.
I didn’t like that I spent sometime before knowing when the desk will come, It would have been annoying if I had travel plans, it took a week or so to know when it will be dispatched and delivered.
But the desk itself is amazing I love everything about it, a bit heavy for me though to carry but i managed to assemble it alone. So i can say it’s a recommended purchase
I like the feature of the table and easy to assemble. I believe the upper surface of table can be more thick and scrach proof. At present laptop stand scrach is easily visible on my desk which is white in color.
Was quite surprised how solid and well engineered this product is. The legs themselves are very heavy which suggests they might actually last a while. I’ve had this desk for three weeks and am very happy with it.
Works really well and easy to set up, it’s not 100% stable and can be fiddly when in use but does the job! This is my second one!
This has been an excellent product. Delivered in two packages, well wrapped. It assembled quickly and easily, then worked first time. It’s made a huge difference to the way I work.
I am mainly working from home now and was looking for a desk that was comparable to my height adjustable desk at work but would also look lovely in my home. I went for the all white height adjustable desk and it blends in so nicely with the decor. It was super easy to put up, is really sturdy and the height can be easily adjusted with the little control panel. Really happy with it!
Easy to assemble in less than 30 mins, no flaws in design. Delivered on time. Would highly recommend
So delighted with this desk, and excellent that it arrived early. The desk handles two monitors and glides to height with no challenge. Very Happy! thank you
Very happy with this desk. We purchased white legs with white top.
It was easy to assemble, and feels very sturdy once built.
I have dual monitors on a monitor arm and this poses no issues for the sit stand mechanism which moves quickly and relatively quietly.
The height adjusting keypad is excellent quality and the programme function works well for different heights.
Overall a really happy customer.
Use for working in a laptop all day. My neck and back get really sore. I enjoy being able to stand for a while to give my body a break
Delivery time was only a day, huge bonus. Assembly was quick and easy, done in less than an hour on my own. The rise and fall is so quiet and smooth, absolutely perfect. No wobbles, very sturdy. Excellent quality, and value for money. Very very happy with this desk, definatly recommend anyone to buy it.
The EF1 is a Fantastic desk. I nearly didn’t buy following seeing some worrying reviews but I’m glad I did
The packaging is reassuringly robust, well packed.
The Instructions are clear and easy to follow and assembly took me less than 45 minutes and only needed me to do it.
Its a spacious surface which is supplied as a single piece with the metal work for attaching to the desk already fitted.
Operation is very straight forward and the 4 memory settings are working out great for me already with 1 being used for sitting another for standing and a third that I’m using for storing my chair at a level in between which is great because its helped overcome the extra space this desk takes up when not in use
It was much more easier to assemble than I was thinking. It is easier than most of Ikea stuff. It is very stable, although I placed it on carpet floor. Electrical connections work perfect. It’s been a month that I am using it and i am totally happy with my purchase.
The minimum height is too high for me, need to have a foot pad, so please make sure the height is suitable to you. Seems extra discount is in their official website.
Bought for my home office. I spent a lot of time researching standing desks before settling on this one. I did not find cheaper so this represents awesome value for money.
It was well packaged and easy to set up. The smoothness of raising and lowering it is amazing – you hardly hear it move. Absolutely love it.
I did have an issue with delivery (sent to wrong address) but it got sorted with a replacement being sent and a 20 refund for my troubles.
The seller was very easy to communicate with, product assembly was also relatively simple with good instructions. So far I’ve been able to load 20kg of items on the desk and seems very sturdy. Good produc
The desk came in one box and was easy to assemble. Use it with a 32 inch monitor and laptop and it fits well. Not much noise when in use. The USB ports charge phone very quickly. Excellent value for money.
I bought this to replace a fixed position IKEA table/desk. The IKEA table top was hollow and mostly cardboard. The Ikea desktop did not work well with a dual monitor desk mount as the desk compressed and bowed a bit.
The flexispot desk top is very solid and works fine with a dual monitor arm.
On arrival, the frame of the desk was attached to the table top. All that needed doing was to attach the legs and feet and then wire up the electrics. A little box is provided to hold the power supply for the motors. Two hooks are supplied that I’m using for my headphones. All the holes were pre drilled ready for screwing the hooks and box to.
I did contact the customer support, through Amazon, before the desk arrived and they answered my questions within a few hours.
The desk works really well. I’m very impressed with the quality, ease of assembly and packaging. Highly recommended.
Solid table, works well, feels well made, great for working from home. I had to speak to the supplier about changing delivery, and then changing the size, I was being a pain but they were great, excellent customer service.
Love the Item.
Good and Fast delivery.
DHL left it in the wrong building …same number but next parallel flat. But not sellers fault.
Very good item for back pain.
Easy install! A few screws. Easy instructions in english! All good once we found the package in the next block!
What a great product from assembly to everyday use its features are quite simple yet affective and with the press of a button i could be sitting or standing by my desk. Very well finished and extremely sturdy i would recommend it to anyone looking for more functionality from a desk in their home office
After much waiting due to human error, OK very pleased with my purchase. the desk was super easy to install and I did it all by myself as a female. The desk works smoothly so far, no hiccups. There is slight humming wen moving but nothing major.
All in all good value for money.
Easy to assemble, very smooth motor with anti-collision safety and programmable presets. Overall I’d recommend.
Few caveats: black table is not fingerprint resistant and not the highest quality (it’s not bad tho, just one or two minor inconsistencies). Desk is not super sturdy and if you like to lean on your table, it can bend a little with time. If you’re ordering to outside of uk (like to Ireland for example) be aware that the delivery might call you to pay a tax (about 60e).
I like the table very well, my wife is happy about the purchase. However, the only thing i dislike is the noise of the motor when you try to adjust the height…in all its one of the best purchase, thanks
Height adjustable desks allow you to work while sitting or standing, the standing aspect being beneficial to health instead of sitting all day. We’ve had them in the office where I work for a couple of years and much fanfare was made about the money the company had spent on them. With that in mind I was a little dubious that a more modestly priced desk like this Flexispot would be as sturdy, expecting noise from the motor as well. But I have become used to it at work, and in the new hybrid way of working wanted to try the same at home.
The desk is self-assembly and comes supplied in a large and very heavy box. I could carry the weight on my own, but the size and lack of handholds in the cardboard made it awkward to negotiate through the house, so it would be much easier with someone assisting.
After opening and checking all the parts were present and correct, I commenced assembly. In truth there are not too many parts and the assembly is pretty straightforward. By which I mean that I used only a few swearwords and mild ones at that. The most awkward bit is the metal tray that sits under the desk – this is supplied as a flat piece of metal that has to be bent into shape (there are fold lines pre-pressed into it) but required some hard staring at the pictures to make sure I was bending it the right way up. A screwdriver and allen key are provided and all told it probably took less than an hour to complete.
Once in position, I connected to the mains and tried to increase the height. This happened very smoothly and much more quietly than I thought it might be. Better still it was absolutely rock solid with no wobble. There are 4 memory settings for your favourite altitudes, which is a feature missing from the ultra expensive ones at work so all in all I am very impressed!
Came quickly and really well packaged. It was easy to assemble. Purchased to alleviate/ease a lower back problem brought on by age and too much sitting at my work PC during the day. To some extent it has alleviate this as I vary my time between sitting and standing. It’s also good as you can vary the height when sitting unlike fixed height desks to find the position that’s most comfortable to use a keyboard and mouse.
I absolutely love this desk , bought it for a small corner and had a large 32inch curved monitor + laptop on it . Goes up and down seamlessly and feels very sturdy . Doesn’t drop when you lean on it . I’m 5 ft 8 and it goes up way higher than I would need it to. Easy assembling you just have to screw the legs on and delivery was super fast . DELIGHTED !
Only had for approximately 2 weeks but up to now really impressed. Only reason for 4 stars is don’t know about longevity. If still like this in an year, a definite 5 stars.
I love this desk. I have had it for 7 months now. I only really use setting “1” or “2” for my standard heights which I set for yourself, but you can tweak up/down as needed. The sensors on the way down are good for avoiding hitting things underneath like my work bag and chair. For construction, it was really heavy to bring up to my office initial but I built most of it myself, just with some help to get the worktop on the legs so I could fix it in place. The controls can be attached on either side as needed. I did buy some plastic drawers that sit underneath for storage. The desk power cable is long enough so I have never accidentally unplugged it whilst moving the desk up. It takes the weight of a large monitor without issue. My only improvement would be to do with cable management for both desk power and the IT peripherals that sit on the desk. My knees occasionally hit the rod underneath but that’s to do with my chair. I am very happy with my purchase and have recommended several times to colleagues.
Sturdier than expected, has really helped my back. Exactly what I was looking for.
I’m honestly so impressed with this desk. It arrived really quickly and very well packaged with zero damage. Although the package was heavy, I found it super easy to put the desk together by myself. The instructions were pretty clear and they even give you a screwdriver – I mean, c’mon! The only thing to mention is the separate pack of screws for the controller, the instructions had me scratching my head for a minute but I came back to the reviews and luckily someone else had mentioned it (you only need two). Now it’s up and in place, I’m really happy. The mechanics are very smooth, the desk itself feels sturdy – I’ve got it on carpet so there’s a minute wobble if tested but not noticeable in day-to-day use. As a tall person, to be able to get a *reasonably priced* height-adjustable desk that actually fits in the corner of my room makes me very happy. Definitely worth the purchase.
I love this desk so much. It came quicker than the delivery time they gave and it came in 2 separate deliveries. First the legs then the nexy day came the table top (in one piece). I’ve had it and used ir for some weeks now and it works like a dream. I love being able to comfortably stand to work ar my desk and then dropping it to sitting when needed. The motor is quite quick so it doesnt take long to adjust heights. Also, it’s quiet. I also really appreciate that it has memory settings. The 4 memory slots help me have the perfect height for each way I want to work – suited to my height and preferences. So glad I took the leap on this. Really hoping it lasts a very long time.
Totally worth it. It’s the most affordable I’ve seen for the electric standing desk, has multiple options to save positions, it’s sturdy, and was relatively simple to put together. The only suggestion I would have is the instruction manual is confusing and I honestly just stopped using it after awhile cause it would cause me more confusion. I began to just use it to get a gauge of the next step and went from there. The wording was confusing and it never description direction for the objects or provided picture evidence for that.
purchased for the small size. motor / lift / drop all working great so far.
not the most sturdy desk but given the small size and height when raised perhaps not surprising.
no faults, very good value for money
Good desk for daily use.
Relatively easy to assemble though an electric screwdriver/drill is needed to attach pieces to the desktop.
Accessories not included as part of item. Seller has noted this to me since purchasing upon my query.
The desk is very stable and motor noise is very low (better than I expected). The only thing I can think of are delivery and installation instructions. They first delivered the frame alone with no information about desk top and the status on Amazon shows delivered. I thought the courier company missed the desktop and raised a complaint, then came to know it was coming in a different courier, which arrived after few days. They would have informed it earlier to avoid this confusion.
I am quite tall so I wanted an adjustable desk. I have a bad back do I wanted a standing option. When you see items like this you wonder how thick is the metal, how sturdy will it be, how heavy, etc. well it’s nice and heavy, very sturdy. Good range of heights easy to program, without using the supplied manual! It looks ok, not as expensive looking as the ones we have at work, but they prob cost much much more.
Yep would happily recommend.
It’s a good desk, sturdy and easy to assemble. The height adjustment works smoothly and you can save up to 4 preferred heights. 4 stars and not 5 just because the bottom side of the board is all scratched where the pre-assembled parts have been screwed in.
I’ve been looking at seated/standing desks for a while now, and after having to give back a desk I’d been using, decided to treat myself. I did some amazon research and found the flexispot desks seemed to offer the best of both worlds in that the built quality seemed fine and also the desk motors were rated for something like 11 years with 5 height adjustments a day. The desk frame is solid and stable once assembled, and if you purchase it with a desktop (I picked Maple), then its all pre-drilled with holes, and you just make the frame, flip it upside down, line up with screw holes and put together! I also bought some velcro trunking to conceal the snakelike myriad of wires hanging down from my pc monitor and other cables to hide it…overall it looks neater and its nice being able to get up and continue working while actually improving my back and legs when I feel like it. In fact I overdid it first day and worked the whole day standing..paid for it next day with achy legs! If you get fed up of sitting all the time, this at least breaks the working day up with the opportunity to mix it up a little!
Instructions are very simple and the desk is easy to put together. The pre-drilled holes in the underside of the desk are really helpful and aids the ease of assembly. I choose this frame as its supports variable sizes which means I can increase or decrease the size of the desk in the future. An option not possible where the frame is a fixed width. Would definitely recommend as not have to sit all day really made a difference.
Its a shame it doesn’t come with a tray underneath to hold power supplies and cables.
Ordered this height adjustable desk, plus a gas cylinder arm to fit my monitor. Amazing value and very impressed with the quality of this piece of furniture. Easy to construct (some of the instructions are a little lost in translation, but pretty easy to work out what they mean!). It’s very sturdy, nice colour wood top and has memory pre-sets for the height adjustments, so easy to set up for sitting and standing for a couple of different people.
Delivered prompt, only a few days after ordering and no damage to the box or contents.
All in all, super impressed with this product 🙂
Detail below…
Pros
– Very sturdy
– Motor collision detection stops even when delicate objects get caught during table movement.
– My controller unit broke 2 months after buying and Flexispot sent me out a new one right away. Couldn’t ask for a better service.
Cons
– The only downside is the holes for the controller were not pre-drilled. I used a punch to make a guide hole for the screws. It’s a simple task but people with no drilling or wood work experience may have difficulty. Very easy to learn though, do not let that put you off this desk!
Detail
This desk (EF1 series 140*70cm white) desk is fantastic. I use computers 90% of the day and very tall so being able to stand working is great for my back and posture. Also being tall most desks are far too low for me so being able to set the height makes it far more comfortable to work. It’s also great to have the perfect desk height whilst standing, no more leaning down and doing in my back!
I was not expecting much when I order this standing desk, given the relatively low price, TBH, I am amazed, it is just the exact dimensions described in the ad, I am not tall (5’9), however when standing, I prefer may arms high when typing, this desk fits the bill for me, goes up to 120cm floor to top of the desk area. Motor is smooth, finish is good, I like the way the strip round the edge of the wood chip finish, is at the back of the desk, I now have far more leg room in my home office, which is a little cramped. I wish I had bought one sooner, delivery was due next week, but arrived 5 days early. Happy customer, happy to recommend. The free screwdriver and clear instructions were a bonus, never had a flat pack before with an assembly screwdriver before, ubiquitous Allen key was there as well. Vendor advised the they can replace parts that are faulty
Was a bit nervous about ordering this product after some of the reviews but needn’t have worried. Item turned up in advance of the estimated delivery date. For once I found the assembly instructions pretty clear with all the parts, screws etc. well packaged and labelled. It’s kind of obvious how it all fits together due to the pilot holes/shape of parts etc. Would estimate took about 40 minutes to assemble taking my time and ensuring screws, allen key fixings were tight etc.
Desk itself is solid, probably laminated MDF or similar but looks good (I chose the wood finish with white frame). Using for work and fits one desk clamped monitor, one 17 inch laptop, a lamp and vertical macbook stand fine. Room also for full size keyboard and mouse. It goes up and down perfectly well and pretty quickly. You can program up to 4 preset height settings (presumably for those who want to practice their limbo skills) and whilst I have found the controls to be slightly erratic at times works perfectly well.
Most importantly when it’s raised up I’ve not found it to have any wobbles or rattles and certainly nothing like the video review below. Not sure if I’m lucky or they were unlucky but seems solid to me and I’m quite a two fingered keyboard masher.
Got during black Friday and for the money (229) I think it represents excellent value.
Overview
What I like about the desk is that you can set 4 different height profiles for your requirements, it was easy put together, and is of a solid construction, providing the user follows the instructions and builds the desk correctly.
In addition, if you already have a desk top you only need to buy the frame as it is built fully adjustable to facilitate most sized desk tops.
Delivery and Building
From placing the order to receiving the frame and top took 3 days, much faster than advertised.
The desk top and frame are delivered in 2 parts and came on different days, though I think this was a courier fault and not the sender.
On receiving the frame, I set about reading the instructions and carefully putting the frame together, everything is provided, though I recommend that you use a drill for attaching the top to the frame, also the whole job will go quicker if you have a drill and Hex bits.
I managed the entire build on my own however it would be easier as a 2 person job.
From start to finish I put the desk together in an hour.
I would however recommend that if you find building Ikea furniture problematic, you may struggle to put this item together so seeking a local handyperson to take care of this.
I also opted to buy some cable management trays for health and safety reasons, again from Amazon
These again were a simple item to attach to the desk 4 screws each, makes everything safer and a much neater way to store your cables.
Useability
I have been using the desk now for a few days, it has made such a massive difference to my home office space, being able to stand and work throughout the day at the correct height is already taking the pressure off of my back and neck.
Conclusion
This desk falls within what I would consider meeting a perfect cost -v- quality balance, is relatively easy to build and ticks all of the boxes.
Leaving a longer review as I spent a lot of time researching and thought others might appreciate. I was under the impression this desk (the EF1 series 100x60cm) would come in 2 packages with a single piece top. Mine didn’t. If that’s important to you perhaps check with the seller before ordering. Mine came as a single package with the desktop split in 2 inside. 25/35cm doweled together for stability so the ‘seam’ is further back out of the way of where my keyboard etc. sits. Not a problem for me but if you wanted to use the top for working directly on (sketching etc.) then it may require some kind of mat. The top does come with 2 cable management ‘grommets’. They are 50mm so, if you are thinking of installing an alternative grommet, as I am, the choice is reduced. I can find some smaller grommets with USB 2/ C that will fit but the larger wireless charging pads or power socket combo grommets would need larger holes cut. I wanted my desk to be mobile. The version with castors was much more expensive. I simply navigated to the sellers page and bought the castor set. Much cheaper, arrived separately and they screw in perfectly, replacing the plastic feet of the desk. The castors do mean it is a little higher than a standard desk when sitting. 73cm is now increased to 78 with the castors. We can now move it between office or studio and put it out of the way when not in use. The mechanism is smooth and relatively fast/ quiet. I’m 5’10” and max height is higher than I can handle. It feels pretty stable at my preferred standing/ working height (105cm) on either concrete floors or carpet. Having the 4 memory pre-sets is helpful when moving between standing/ sitting or when others in the household wish to use it. Very happy with it. Instructions were pretty simple to follow step by step. Built it in approx. 30 minutes. NOTE: the screws to install the memory controller to the underside of the desk are NOT the ones indicated in the instructions. They work but are a squeeze. There is a separate little pack of screws in the box. Only found them and realised once I’d followed the instructions and squeezed in the ones in the instructions. I bought a separate cable management tray and installed it underneath. Now unplug single extension cable, move it about, plug it in and get to work.
Love the desk I bought. But two small issues. As it has been said the other reviews. Said they has 5 in stock but for almost a week it was pending. I got in contact with Amazon to chase up why it was still pending. Within 24hrs it was dispatched and I received it 4 days earlier than their eta. The 2nd issue even the guy on YouTube states the metal beam didn’t have pre drilled holes hence the confusion why I had 4 screws left. Drilled the holes myself and all sorted. This why I gave it 4 stars rather than 5
I have now purchased another desk top to match this one for the corner of the room
Would definitely recommend this supplier.
I only tend to review products that are either very bad or very good and this one is the latter.
I think this desk is fantastic. It is solid and well made and the price is great. I have been put off getting an electric sit stand desk due to the vast majority being over 500. At 230 I can’t sing it’s praises highly enough and still think it would challenge many desk over 400 – 500. It literally does what it says on the tin and does it well. I really like the programmable heights. I have one set for normal working height for correct arm alignment (I’m 6’4″) and I have my iMac on a riser to ensure it’s at the correct eye height. I then have a lower height programmed for zoom calls as my phone is mounted above the screen and I was getting a bit of a sore neck just having to look up that little bit extra, so this sorts that problem. Then I have one set for maximum height for when I need to stand when my backside is getting numb from sitting too long. It takes about 15 seconds to go from my sitting height to full height and definitely doesn’t feel like some desks, like the one I have at work where you need to press the button until it reaches the right height and takes forever, this one is quite quick and just a one button press to reach your pre set height. Lastly I have one of the 4 pre sets for the other family members should they want to use the computer at a much lower height. There is a slight wobble to the overall desk, more noticeable at the top height, but I am fairly sure this is because I have a reasonably thick carpet and thick underlay and my Mac is on a riser too. I think it would be rock solid on a wood or tiled floor. The slight wobble doesn’t come across on zoom calls, you don’t see it at the other end, so it’s not massive. Another great point is the maximum height at 123cm, it’s high enough that I can even fit my treadmill underneath and have a leisurely walk whilst doing my emails before my zoom calls begin. I don’t know if they have updated the instructions since some of the other reviewers seemed to find them not the best, but I had no problems and found them quite clear, typically I curse instructions and end up having to take things apart because I have gone wrong somewhere, but I found these quite straight forward and it took me 30 – 40 mins on my own. As I said, I can’t rate it highly enough, if you are looking for a desk like this, you won’t go wrong with this one.
This desk is fantastic. It replaces a static desk of the same size as my main workspace in my home and the ease of raising and lowering the desk makes it a fantastic purchase. As a web designer, I spend long hours at my desk so the ability to stand for some of them and alter my position has improved my back issues.
Some reviews have commented on the sturdiness of the desk, but it is far more sturdy that my old desk with little to no discernable ‘wobble’ at all in comparison.
The anti-collision feature is also great and will stop the desk even if you place something down on it too roughly whilst in motion.
Highly recommend this desk and seller – just be aware that it does come in two separate packages and in my case on 2 separate days, but both parts arrived before the stated delivery date.
Very important to note. The desk surface will arrive in a second package. Re-read the product summary carefully. I didn’t and after a helpful response was re-assured by the seller after the first package arrived with the second a day or two later. All before the target dates given.
Assembly: Packages arrived in very good condition. Very easy to assemble, everything clearly labelled and easy to follow. Would recommend a second pair of hands to aid in holding things upright and in place while you tighten things up. Would recommend building the base and then moving it to the room in question before continuing assembly. You’ll be grateful if you don’t have a helper and are pressed for space.
Quality: Excellent. Surface, mechanism, base and controls all top notch and both look and feel great. Only a few weeks in, but to date it’s working consistently well.
Features: Anti collision and programable pre-sets all work as intended and well. Easy to follow. It’s smooth in operation and quiet. I’ve got a lot of kit on mine and it handles the weight easily. Always worth checking the specs on your hardware as weight will be indicated.
Only downside would be the cable management ties that stick on the desk underside. They don’t stay on and I would recommend planning your own solutions post install, as you will want something more substantial and longer lasting anyway… best to do this after you’ve gotten set up and have had a chance to see what cables reach and what ones sag.
All in all it’s a top quality buy. I consider it excellent value for money as you pretty much will have everything you need. Works well with monitor arms etc.
Big thanks Flexispot.
I cannot speak highly enough of this adjustable desk. I really needed a desk that allowed me to vary my sitting / standing while working from home. After much research online, I was concerned that it may not be possible to find a desk of sufficient quality at any price.
I should not have worried.
This desk arrived 3 days earlier than promised. It came in two packages, as expected, base first, then desk top. This allowed me to do most of the base assembly the first evening and then attach the desk top when it arrived the next day.
The machine quality of the base is very, very good. Solid steel parts. High quality powder coating. Plenty of lead length for electric components. The instructions were very well laid out and easy to follow. The various screws were packed in individually labelled packets with clear lettering to identify each, leaving no risk of confusion.
The desk top is similarly excellent quality. It’s not real solid wood. Looks like bonded MDF laminate to me but the maple woodgrain is very natural looking, textured and very well-finished at the rounded edges. It oozes quality. Pre-drilled holes lined up perfectly so no problems with assembly, although you will have to pre-drill some extra holes to attach the cross-spar to the desk top as well as the rear of the control panel. (You need a 3mm drill.)
The motor is smooth and quiet and easily capable of lifting a full load of equipment in the desktop.
Overall I couldn’t be happier.
I’ve been looking for a reasonably priced sit-stand desk for a while now and was delighted (if not slightly sceptical) to come across this product.
I ordered the item on the Friday, and it was delivered on Tuesday / Wednesday the following week. Weirdly, it comes in two packages, from two different couriers. I had to ask for the second tracking number, but the customer services provided this quickly and accurately. Overall I was impressed with the speed of dispatch.
Assembly was relatively easy, I managed it by myself in around an hour. There are some holes missing on the desk, but these could be easily drilled in.
Once assembled, the lifting mechanism works well and the product is as described. The desk is a little wobbly but this isn’t a huge problem (unless the cat decides to take a long jump!)
If you’re looking for a reasonably priced sit-stand desk then this is the one for you! Really pleased with the purchase and would certainly recommend to friends.
I’ve been using this standing desk for over a month now.
After researching online for an electric standing desk, this one from FLEXISPOT seemed to me to offer the best value for money. All the other options that I’ve encountered were over 400 GBP, easily reaching close to 1000 GBP.
Assembling was not difficult but was also not an easy task. The table top did not have the pre-drilled holes for where the frame should be assembled, so I had to use a ruler to make sure the frame was centered on the table top. I was able to assemble everything with just a ruler and a screwdriver.
The only “complain” I would point out in this standing desk is regarding its sturdiness, especially when in standing mode. It does not take a lot of pressure to make it shake a bit, but nothing exaggerated. To give you an idea, I have a desk lamp that I’ve attached to the table, and whenever I type too hard on my keyboard the light on the lamp shakes a little bit.
However, I don’t want you to get the wrong impression; I had an IKEA office table that was even less sturdy than this one from FLEXIBOX. So, bottom line, I think FLEXIBOX standing desk mode sturdiness is normal, but there are probably standing desks more sturdy, at a higher price point.
Overall, given the price I’ve paid for this standing desk, which with an amazon coupon was 279.99 GBP, I’m happy with my purchase.
I’ve been browsing the market place for a standing desk for some time, even looking at the manual standing desks as a option as the prices i have seen for most desk have been way out of my budget for a desk.
I come across this on amazon for 300 and thought let me browse the feedback and see whats going on.
I come across some bad reviews making me on edge whether to buy this but i thought i would just jump off the high end and go for it.
Just before adding this to my basket i see they had a voucher below for 30 off coming to a total of 269.99 and that made it even more of a option to buy it.
I place the order on 27 August 2020 and the expected arrival was 2nd – 7th September but this thing arrived 29 August 2020 2 days after purchase!.
The desk is sturdy and arrived in 2 packages oddly it arrive by 2 different delivery services but luckily it arrived 30 minutes apart from each other.
Took me 15/25 minutes to put this together and i can say to you its worth the money I’ve spent on this and I’m a very satisfied customer even recommend it to family members.
this desk is a very good contender vs the high price standing desk out there and i would say just give it a go and see how you like it it does go up and down slower then other desks but this thing is so quiet when it does you wont even notice.
It has 3 presets you can set and a alarm to make sure you know when to stand and sit if you like to mix things up.
I have only used the 2 presets one for sitting and one for standing not sure what the can be used for but good just to have it there.
This desk is brilliant. The mahagony top looks beautiful and the height adjustment is smooth and memory function is awesome. I use this with an under desk treadmill and am 180cms. The desk height between 115-120 cms is perfect for walking while working. The width between the legs is adjustable as well which was very important and I think is why the table top does not come with the holes people are going on about. You can slide and adjust the width as much as you want within the upper limit as opposed to adjusting only in pre determined slots.
Installation was getting a bit frustrating as I did not find instructions very clear but they have a video on YouTube and with that installation becomes super easy. Just google it.
It was delivered in two separate parcels but both came fairly quickly and before the estimated date.
All in all a very good buy at a steal price given how much treadmill desks cost.
Purchased this desk due to WFH given the current situation. I can’t fault it really, it’s made such a difference being able to sit and stand whilst working!
Pros:
– The ease of adjusting the height, literally a click of a button!
– There are 3 memorable heights, so it makes adjusting the height even easier?!
– Great size (other sizes are available) I purchased 120 x 60 x 2.5cm and I have my MacBook (with stand), monitor pole, monitor, keyboard and mouse. I have so much room left even with all of this, I could fit an iMac on here too…
– Cost, compared to a lot of height adjustable desks out there (I researched A LOT and given the current situation, lots of people will be working from home more), this desk came up top trumps. There were desks out there that were easily 100+ more. Comparing the stats, I went with this one and glad I did.
Cons:
– The instructions that come with this are NOT good! I watched a YouTube video to help me as the instructions got me to screw the main beam upside down
– NO OTHER CON
All in all, this is a great desk! You working from home will definitely benefit from being able to sit and stand whilst working at will. This is the entry level desk within the Flexispot range, but honestly, it really doesn’t feel like it! Feels very premium
I spent a while researching adjustable desks as like everyone else I am working from home for the foreseeable future. I had a limited budget, so took a punt on this one given other major retailers were selling desks that were way out of my price range. Overall, I am very impressed with the desk so far; I just hope it lasts for a long time! I switch between sitting and standing 3-4 times a day so am making good use of it so far.
Pros
– The frame and top arrived separately and both were securely packaged
– The frame is heavy and therefore feels very sturdy
– There aren’t too many pieces so it can be put together fairly quickly (took about 1 hour or so)
– When adjusting the desk, there’s barely any noise and it takes about 15 secs to get it to the standing position
– Very easy to preset heights and the desk doesn’t need to be plugged in all the time to ensure the pre-set heights are saved
– The desk top size was perfect for my 8ft x 8ft box room. I can comfortably fit a laptop, keyboard, mouse, screen and desk tidy on there
Cons
– The instructions are very poor. The diagrams are reversed part way through the instructions, so it got very confusing
– Some of the pre-drilled holes shown in the instructions are not present on the desk top. This turned out not to be a big deal as I used a drill to make the holes required myself
– You definitely can’t assemble this yourself. It’s a two person job because some of the pieces are really, really heavy
– The desk top was slightly scuffed and given it’s black it is very noticeable, however I can live with it given the overall product is very good
I ordered this desk to work from home during COVID 19. I have had it about 4-6 weeks and it’s great. I have an electric desk at work that I use to to having back problems and after having major spinal surgery in 2018. I didn’t want to pay 500 + that my work desk was and also I didn’t have the space for it. So I did a lot of research on electric desks and decided on this. It is very good and I am very pleased with it indeed. So far so good and I also brought a standing mat with it to allow me to stand longer – again Flexi spot. It was supposwd to be a 6 week delivery period for the frame but it came within a matter of days!! Aprrox 4 days later the desk top came. I emailed the company as I thought they had not sent the right order and they were very helpful. I am very pleased with the quality of this desk and will update in a few months time again to say how I am getting on with it.
