Ergodriven Spark Children’s Standing Desk | Cardboard Sit Stand Converter - Desktop Riser - Standing Desk for Kids

The price is definitely right for this sturdy product. I wanted to try a standing desk for health reasons but wasn't going to spend a lot to find out if it was right for me. I've used this Spark for a week and love it. The drawing/description instructions were helpful (and necessary) for quick assembly. The height is just as they indicated for small. My iMac, external storage LaCie, wireless keyboard and mouse have plenty of room. I was a bit distracted by the computer's subtle fan vibration through the mouse, so I popped a mouse pad under it and a pad under the keyboard. Perfect. It's so efficient and comfortable I doubt that I would ever bother investing in a more expensive brand. However, you do have to be committed to using your computer mostly standing up because it would be too awkward to change back and forth very often.

Spark by Ergodriven | The Perfect "Start Standing Now" Standing Desk (Medium) So far, I have set up my new standing desk - for $20 it seems a great way to find out if it helps me. I have hip issues and weight issues and I'm hopeful that this helps! The setup, with the videos, was easy. I had one problem because I didn't see the scoring on the "blue part". Once I found that, it was easy-peasy. The written instructions refer to the parts by color - which they aren't, and I really didn't see them marked anywhere with those colors (no label that said "blue" or "pink"). However, the pieces are distinctive enough that most people should be able to figure it out. I'll be taking this to work with me tomorrow - wish me luck!

Used this for couple of days now. Seems sturdy enough and does a fine job with my monitor on top. I got the SMALL size based on recommendation as per my height. But it is really small. Problem is my wrist and forearm (which should be horizontal ideally for right posture) ends up at a downward angle to reach the Keyboard & mouse, which is in the middle section, and hence resulting in discomfort, I would need to have a workaround for this as I cant working at this arm angle. So that is a problem. Rest of the product seems fine and good for the price. The first product delivered had some cracks and for which they sent a replacement quickly. So good customer service.

The price of this product was what caught my eye first. It is incredibly affordable and I found it very easy to assemble with the instructional video. I am 5'2" and ordered the size small, but I am wondering if I should have gotten the medium. I ended up having to raise up the whole apparatus with some paper reams to get the right height for my keyboard. That being said, this has been the single best $25 I have ever spent. I suffer from chronic back pain that is exacerbated by sitting, and shifting to a standing desk immediately made me feel better. I have been using it for three or four weeks now and I couldn't be happier. The cardboard is fairly sturdy and there is a nice little storage spot underneath for my phone and notebook. Everyone in my office is super envious. The desk has some exposed cardboard edges which do not look the most professional and can give you papercuts. If you are debating whether to get a standing desk, this is a really good one to see how much better it can feel, and if you want to buy something more sturdy or adjustable, you can do that.

I tore a large piece when trying to assemble this, making it impossible to finish the assembly.Get something better.

My bad for not taking all the pieces out of the box and examining them when I got it, but when I finally went to set this up, there were already places where slight tearing was showing (even though it had never been out of the box!)Wondering now if it's even worth it as it probably won't hold up very well if I'm starting out with some damage. Was looking forward to finally getting my office together and starting to use this (before buying a more expensive one)

Heed the advice to watch the step-by-step video instructions before beginning assembly. They are very well done and will allow you to avoid mistakes and save time putting your desk together. Total assembly time is less than 15 minutes.The desk weighs almost nothing so it's easily moveable. I learned to type on manual typewriters and Spark handles my ridiculous pounding of the keyboard well...not flimsy at all. What I like best is that it allows me to do my favorite kind of multi-tasking, as you can see in the photo - standing at the kitchen table eating breakfast while working from home!

So I was really pleased to see an inexpensive stand up desk option. I already have a desk and was questioning if I wanted a stand up desk. It's $20 - not pennies, but certainly no large investment when wanting to test drive stand up desk. The price tipped the scale from 3 stars to 4 stars. After reading numerous 5 star reviews I was expecting something a little more...stable. And based on 3 sizes, I thought the "fit" would be a little better. I chose small per guidelines because of my height but the keyboard height is actually rather low. I had to add a length of 2x6 to make it higher and that still is not putting my arms at 90 deg angle.It was relatively easy to put together but the TABS do not fit into the holes well - they are a touch too short. And that makes the top feel a bit unstable because it moves out of place a bit. It holds my 24" monitor just fine and the monitor weight actually keeps the top platform where it should be.I really dislike the downward slope of the keyboard. Maybe that's an ergonomic thing but I don't see that on any other stand up desks and to me it's a design issue - must be done this way to fold how it does.Its a cost effective way to start standing and be more aesthetically pleasing than shipping boxes or even the DIY Ikea hack. BUT for those saying "hmm, i want to try standing, is it for me?" I INSTANTLY knew I would like standing better so now I will save my pennies for a real standing desk.

I ordered a small Spark standing desk as I'm 5'5" and it is the ideal size. Everything just feels like its in the right place! Set-up was moderately easy. I'm not exactly inclined to puzzles however, I managed to get it done on my own by following the enclosed instructions and the video from their site was a valuable resource to double-check. I love that the desk doesn't wobble around when I'm typing - its sturdy cardboard! I am using a MacBook Pro laptop, Apple keyboard and mouse - everything fits great. The level of customer service that I received was exceptional. I had contacted them to inquire when the desk would be shipped as it was nearing the due date. I was advised that the small size was back-ordered and was offered a medium which could be sent immediately. However, I was set on the small size. Fortunately, an unopened small size was located amongst their demo materials and was shipped to me right away! Lucky me :) I recommend Spark stand up desk wholeheartedly. If you've never tried a stand-up desk, you're missing out! As a sciatica sufferer, it is a game-changer as I can stand for hours and the nerves are completely alleviated of any stress/strain from sitting in a chair. Just get it - you won't regret it :)
