Rolling Desk for Laptop

First of all, this desk is made well. Seems very solid. So, I am very happy with that. I also like that the bottom 2 shelves are below the lift, so I feel more comfortable maxing out weight load on them. The things to know. First, it does not go as low as a typical sitting desk. I have the Boos Office Be Well Medical Spa chair which works well because it is oddly high. However you do it, if you want it for sitting, either get a stool or a chair that rises high enough. It goes really high, so if you are 7' 2" and want a standing desk, I am guessing this will work for you. But you obviously do not need to go that high. It is perfect for me at 5' 10" The other thing that I did not like is that it is pretty big front to back (depth) and the description is not clear. I ended up cutting the keyboard shelf which worked great. No one could ever tell I modified it. Now it fits through the doorway I want to be able to roll it through. Before that it was just a bit too wide. Plus I find it more comfortable with a smaller keyboard shelf anyway. The lifting of the desk from sitting ot standing and back again is mechanical and you must lift it al the way up to go back down. It is not too hard, but on the continuum of strength, if you are closer to the little old lady end or if you have a physical disability that impacts your 2-handed lifting ability, then this is not the right option for you. Back to my beginning, I am very happy and pleasantly surprised with the quality. Putting together was easy.

Arrived when promised. Packaged well. Easy to put together. Very sturdy. The instructions had all the parts labeled but the boards were not labeled. Easy enough to figure it out which one went where. Tools provided with the hardware package. It is a little tricky adjust the height especially if you already loaded the desk tops with monitors and other items. The desk has to be raised all the way to the upper limit to come back down to a lower level. Very satisfied with my purchase. It’s the size I needed to accommodate a small work space and still have room on it for a laptop, monitor, keyboard and mouse pad, scanner, and a few office supplies. Small enough to move through standard doorways (but just barely) so that is an added convenience.

I've had it about a week and it's a sturdy desk. The high adjustment works well. Just remember when you want to lower it you have to pull it all the way up and then it will slide down. As you begin lifting it up to your preferred height, it will click at each level and lock in place until you lift it again. Once you've reached you desired height there are 2 knobs to screw into the holes for extra protection to keep it from sliding down although it is locked in place. More on the locking in place. It's like tent or pop-up shelters when you extend the height and it locks into place at each height except the legs are not wobbly like a pop-up shelter or tent. The legs (entire structure) are made of a pretty thick metal. The wheel casters are decent. There are only wheel locks on the front. You can put them on the back if you want but I prefer the front to help keep it from sliding forward. The wheel casters will slide on a desk floor mat and not stop. But if you are on a hard floor, the wheels I have in the front do have rubber on them to help prevent sliding. I put the back wheels on the mat and the wheels with rubber on them that lock in front on the hard flood to grip the floor. I noticed the way the base that the wheels connect to are flat and sturdy enough if you don't want to use the wheels. It was made to be portable and can be raised to be a stand up workstation if you want that height. I do recommend getting edge protector for the shelves edges especially if you have kids or just don't want to get clipped by the edges. I've attached a picture of the edge protectors I got from Amazon also. The nice part is the adjustable heights. You can use just about any chair. Maybe your favorite chair (informercial) lol. I always say if it doesn't work out I have 30 days to return. Oh. Be very care with the package of screws. The are separated in a blister pack and numbered/lettered. If they get mixed it's hard to sort some of them out (I learned the hard way). There was one screw that didn't match the number/letter. Mine was for the center shelf. So don't freak out it's the right screw. Easy assembly. 30 min maybe. Don't over tighten with the allen wrench (included). Some parts I found easier to install by turning it upside-down rather than trying to install. Trying to put the screws with an allen wrench from underneath is a bit challenging. I'm happy with so far. Again I suggest edge protectors especially when your retrieving something from the shelves below. It does have room for a printer not an extremely large one though. My all-one printer is 21 in long and won't fit between the bars on the shelf.... I gave it a 4 star because the mislabeled screw that spent time trying to figure out by eyeballing and measuring the screws one by one. About only 4 sizes though.

This unit has great construction to it. Easy to assemble. Very sturdy. (I sent back a different table that came with two separately adjusting levels because the construction was very weak and cheaply done.) This table can get a little heavy with a laptop and a secondary monitor on it, but if you grab the platform from behind you can lift until it is at its apex and then gently lower it to it’s lowest level. The vertical metal mechanism is ratcheting so that it clicks into each incremental spot going to a very high level (much higher than I would use standing as a 6’ 1” person.) The lowest point it goes down to requires a chair with a seat that fits a bar counter height. Chair seat hight that works seems to be 24-25” rather than a standard 18” chair. All in all I am very pleased. I have rolled this table through my house from the living-room to the den and even out to the garage. It is very well made. I even plan to take it with me in our RV for working from the campground. Super choice.

It's built pretty good. I guess I don't like the manual part. It works for when I need it. Otherwise it's collecting dust now. Buy motorized if you don't want to do manual.

I though it was going to feel cheap but it turned out very nice and sturdy. The metal is thick and has a nice coat of paint on it. The shelves are also solid and have no problem supporting my equipment. I was afraid it might not be high enough but at 6'4" I don't even need to pull it all the way up to use is comfortably. It's too high to use siting down on a chair or sofa but it does work with a stool or any seating that is stool height. Changing the height is a bit cumbersome but easy enough that I can go from sitting to standing and back to sitting again in a day. Very happy with my purchase.

Awesome. Sturdy and easy to put together

I wasn't sold on sit/stand desks, especially not for the price. I figured this could be an interesting in-between solution: a stationary standing desk. Assembly was very straightforward and took about 15 minutes. At higher heights is very wobbly, side to side, front and back. I pushed it against the wall, and added 3/4" pipe insulation form. No more wobbling!

I'm not sure how other buyers have had issues assembling this - I found it very straight-forward. As to difficulty raising the working surfaces, hey - it's not motorized, so you would have to remove the monitor or other heavy items from the platforms before loosening the knobs to raise or lower. As you'd expect for something in this price range. I also find it quite sturdy and not prone to serious side-to-side wobbling. The lowest height, however, is 32" - even with my office chair in its highest position, it's a bit too tall for seated use.

Definitely able to put this together alone. It's a great desk - sturdy, easy to roll even on carpet! The right mechanism was a bit bent and doesn't actually lock but the customer service is just incredible! I'm happy I bought this. Easy to use as a stand desk and easy enough to put back down (people just find anything to complain about like having to put it all the way up before being able to lower it... Boohoo lol) overall, I'm happy.
