Furmax Electric Standing Desk, 55 x 24 Inches Sit Stand up Desk, Sit Stand Height Adjustable Home Office Desk with 4 Height Position Memory (Brown, 55)

I work full time, often from home, and go to school as well. It was important for me to have a desk that was large so I can spread out (I got the 55 inch) but also one that suits my comforts, so I needed an adjustable desk. I didn't want to spend a fortune so I chose this one because the reviews were generally good and it was a reasonable price. I was extremely excited! The desk was packaged well and undamaged upon arrival but the box was VERY HEAVY. Assembly took about 30 minutes for me to assemble with my friend's help (I probably could have done it on my own though.) The directions were easy to follow and everything went smoothly. The desk wobbles a little bit when in a high position, but it doesn't bother me and I sort of expected it. The tabletop is pretty thin but I feel that the desk looks sleek overall, so again, this isn't an issue for me. The motor function works smoothly and is not noisy. I am super happy with my purchase!

Edited 8/26/23: The desktop stopped working after a few days and less than about 20 up-down cycles. After trying a few simple diagnostics suggested by the seller, which didn't correct the problem, they sent a replacement for the controller that seemed to have gone bad. The replacement controller did the trick and the desk is working again. Original text: It was obvious upon unpacking that a lot of thought went into this desk, starting with the packaging. There were plastic corner protectors on the desktop, formed styrofoam around the various parts and box edges, cardboard between layers, and plastic bags around all the painted parts. Everything was in perfect condition. The hardware was well identified, and the assembly instructions were relatively easy to follow. A combination hex/Allen wrench and screwdriver are supplied, but I recommend having a cordless screwdriver set to a low force setting, as there are quite a few screws. The box was a bit heavier than I expected, but once opened, it was clear that this is due to the desk being well constructed and very sturdy. All of the parts seem to be of top quality and strength. The feet are heavy, presumably to help avoid tipping; the motor is a bit heavy for its size, giving the impression that it’s quite strong. Although the desktop comes in two pieces, the dowels and brackets line up perfectly, giving the top a seamless appearance with a beautiful light wood pattern. The legs and feet are white, and the front of the feet have black plastic bumpers which help protect your toes (though I'm a klutz, I'm usually barefoot at the home office). The parts include a long power cord and a cradle under the desktop for the AC to DC converter, plastic straps to tidy up all the cords, and what I presume is a headset hanger that can be placed under the desktop near any corner. I have two 27" screens, my laptop, and other items on this desk, yet the motor is nearly silent and has no trouble lifting the desktop very smoothly. The controls are fancier than I expected; they're clear and very easy to use, with up and down arrows, a nice height indicator (numbers in cm), and an unexpected feature: two memory buttons, which I'm using for my preferred sitting and standing heights. The height reads between 73.0 cm and 122 cm) and takes less than 30 seconds to raise from minimum to maximum height with all my stuff on it. I don't write reviews often, but this desk deserves a good look. It is surprisingly well built and functional, and I think it is an excellent value.

This desk is really nice! It was relatively easy to put together by myself. A bit heavy. Pay close attention to which pieces you are using and the direction for the legs, it is not very well evident on the instructions. The desk arrived very securely packaged, everything was protected, which I greatly appreciated. The top is two pieces length wise that you secure together. I didn’t expect that. It is pressboard and not actual solid wood, I don’t recommend leaning on it too hard. The height adjustment is really awesome, it isn’t loud going up or down and it doesn’t vibrate when it’s adjusting. After you plug it in just give it a few moments to get power to all parts, it will not start moving the very second you plug it in, don’t be alarmed. If it still does nothing after a minute of being plugged in, just check your wires and make sure you are attached to the little box all the way. I can’t speak to wear and tear yet, as I’ve only just gotten it, but I will update after a few months and speak to that. I like the size of this desk, could easily fit two chairs at it if you aren’t someone who spreads out a bunch lol. The only thing that could make this really lovely desk better is if it were solid wood. Either way it is very pretty and well made.

I was skeptical when first making the purchase because of the affordable price but I’m glad that now that things are more virtual Amazon basically has all of your work from home essentials! The desk is very appealing to the eye with the light oak brown color which is perfect for brightening up any room. I’ve only had it as of now less than 24 hours lol but I will definitely come back with an update after about 2 to 3 weeks of use. Assembly: First impression wise the assembly did not take as long as I thought I did just squeeze in at minimum one hour of your day and you’ll have it up and running in no time! Parts: everything that is displayed in the manual came in the box and they have this super sturdy Styrofoam that ensures a safe delivery to your home with no damages. The package itself is pretty heavy so if you have stairs it’s best for two people to bring it up but if you don’t have help I manage to bring it upstairs by myself with a little improvising lol. Overall: so far I’m impressed with the pricing and the functionality of the desk and I love the settings because I am a taller girly so being able to raise my desk so I can actually cross my legs comfortably is a plus. Would definitely recommend to a friend or anyone for that matter.

For the price of this desk is wonderful. The directions were very easy to understand. It only took about 30 minutes to build one’s belt. The desk is lightweight. Easy to maneuver on hardwood floors. Overall very impressed with the mechanics of the desk. There are some slight pauses when you raise, but it works great. If I had to complain about one thing, it’s that the desktop is two pieces and there is just the slightest texture gap in between the pieces. It doesn’t bother me, I’ll just get a desk mat to go under my keyboard. For reference, I bought the 55 inch desk, and it hold 2 large desktop monitors and a large tablet.

You get what you pay for. I think the people who bought a $165 standing desk expecting perfection are deluding themselves. No, you shouldn't expect the motor to work five times a day for several years. No, you shouldn't expect no wobble. No, you shouldn't expect solid wood. There are plenty of thousand-dollar standing desks out there if you want perfection. I outfitted my home office with three of these, and they're pretty great, but understand that I'm not changing the height setting every five minutes. Get this desk if you're going to set it to a standing height and leave it there for long periods. I don't even leave mine plugged in, because why put passive wear on the components? If you're going to be alternating the height or putting cinderblocks on it, or spraying it with a hose, yeah, get something more expensive. If you want a quality standing desk that you intend to dial in and leave alone? This is great for the money. Now, about the wobble (and vendor, listen up), yeah, it's somewhat pronounced, but here are two workarounds for if it bothers you: 1) Put it flush against a wall you wouldn't mind rubbing superficially with the desk (as in, you're okay with repainting that wall if you ever move the desk) and make sure it is VERY snug against that wall along the back. This eliminated all wobble on the desk with which I could do it. 2) You can use a shower rod that expands and tightens to brace it against a vertical or horizontal surface. And this is where I want the vendor to pay attention: Source these and make them part of the package. You may need multiple in order to reduce all wobble, but my second one's wobble was completely eliminated via shower rod. If you as a buyer read those suggestions and think "that's ridiculous," you're more than welcome to go buy a $500+ desk. The rest of us will be here with our $330+ we saved and our ability to think our way out of a problem. Other than that, decent little desk. Have fun.

This product isn’t built for long-term use. The remote controller will break within the first year, and you won’t get a replacement.

As a teacher, I use this in my classroom every single day. I have a co teacher and she's shorter than me, and the ability to adjust the height is so convenient for us! The quality is very sturdy, and building it was a breeze.
