Claiks Electric Standing Desk, Adjustable Height Stand up Desk, 24x48 Inches Sit Stand Home Office Desk with Splice Board, Black Frame/Rustic Brown Top

I needed a standing desk for home and I was a little apprehensive about buying this one due to the low price. Most of the standing desks I was looking at were in the 300 to 500 dollar range. I was shocked with what I got.Unboxing:The package was much smaller than I had expected it to be and I was a bit worried for a moment but read on for the explanation of the box size. There were a few dents and dings on the box that came from shipping and handling. I was certain that those dents and dings would also be on the contents. I opened the package to find thick white high quality foam. Not cheap styrofoam but the high quality type often used for packing computers and other high end electronics. There was a pocket for each item to keep things from crashing around in the box and hitting one another. Each part was individually wrapped in plastic. The desktop came in two pieces separated lengthwise and uses six dowels to join it together. The desktop looked in the pictures like some sort of distressed or antique wood so I was not sure what to expect when I received it but it is just a high quality printed veneer and I am perfectly happy with it. The dowels slipped right in and did not need to be hammered. The top is then held together by the various mounts and brackets that go underneath. I like the two piece desktop as it is the reason the box is so small. After assembly I found four heavy duty rubber corner pieces and actually spent a few minutes trying to find where they go before realizing that they were actually corner protectors for the desk top.Assembly: Total parts count was fairly low and the diagrams in the instructions were perfectly clear. I actually did not pay attention to any of the actual words as the diagrams left nothing to be questioned. The required tools were included however if you spent the money on the desk I recommend just a few dollars more to buy any cheap electric screwdriver as it is a huge time saver. There were no parts that seemed fiddly or places where I thought I needed a helper. The instructions showed to flip the desk upside down to screw on the desktop but a trick I found helpful was to temporarily power up the control panel and raise the desk to it's maximum height. Then place the desktop on and just sit underneath to screw things together.Function:As mentioned before I did not bother with anything other than the assembly diagrams. Even the control panel was very self explanatory. Setting the presets is just like in a stereo, you just press and hold to store that height. The desk does move very quickly but it is fast enough to be used regularly throughout the day. The motor is fairly quiet and the desk moves smoothly with no grinding sounds. The top is a tad thin so there is some flex to it when my arms are resting on it but I do have fairly large arms.Conclusion:Far more value for the money than expected. I would buy other products made by this company based on the quality. Assembly is fast and easy and package is fairly small albeit a bit heavy. It seems to work well and I have found nothing deceptive with the way that this desk was advertised. I did just finish the setup so I will update this in the future if I have issues. I am good about updating reviews if a product fails after the fact so if you don't see an update then everything is still as described.

I just finished assembling this desk, and I'm pleased with its quality so far. I bought it somewhat on impulse while browsing for computer desks because Amazon had a great coupon deal on it and it fell within the size I needed. After assembly, I realize it is well worth the full price.Pros:- The legs are very sturdy, made of hefty metal tubing. They add a lot of weight, helping with stability. Plenty of bolts are used to keep all the parts tight and wobble-free. The feet bars are as long as the desk is deep, and the feet are independently adjustable for leveling. Even at max height, this desk feels stable and would be difficult to accidentally tip over.- The desk itself is made of 2 fiberboard panels, split long-wise, with a texturized plastic veneer (which probably helps prevent scratching). The imitation woodgrain looks very realistic.- The cable holders built into the back of the desk are very convenient.- There is a J-hook tucked under the left and right side of the desk to hang headphones or other items. They spin freely in mounts, so you can rotate them 360 degrees. I wouldn't put anything heavy on them, but they are convenient.- The height controls are very simple to use: just hold a button to raise or lower the desk. You can store the current height setting in 1 of 3 memory slots, and just press a single button to adjust to one of the stored heights. It has a child safety lock-out feature to prevent unwanted use of the height adjustment controls.- The desk is large enough to hold my 19" laptop on a cooler, full-size keyboard, and over-sized mousepad with plenty of room to spare. You could easily squeeze a normal desktop setup on the desk, or put the tower off the desk and run a triple-monitor setup.Cons (all minor):- The power cord is rather short for my use (desk in the middle of a room), but would likely be sufficient for most users who put the desk near a wall like a logical person would.- The cable organizers are made of a hollow plastic that is rather flimsy and could break easily if a cable gets yanked in the wrong direction.- The screw holes in the desk panels (used to attach the desk to the legs) are just drilled into the fiberboard. An inset metal nut may have been a better design. The fiberboard desk panels felt a bit soft when I was driving the screws in, so I set my drill at 4/10 torque to prevent stripping and everything came out nice and sturdy.- One of the fiberboard panels came out of the box with a noticeable bow, creating a dip of at least 1/2 inch in the middle of the panel. This was entirely negated once the desk was fully assembled, so this was only a momentary cause for concern in my case. If the second panel had the same bow, it would still exist once the panels are connected.Overall, I see myself using this desk for years to come. I would definitely recommend it.

Looks great, works great, sturdy, and fairly simple to put together.

This is what I needed in a desk. It’s just enough space for a monitor, laptop, notebook and book. It allows me to set a sitting height, standing height, and height for when the walking pad is underneath. When it is on the higher setting, it is a bit wobbly when I write in my notebook - I notice my glass of water moving around, but for the price, I think it is steady enough. I do notice a sound coming out of the charging base when the item is plugged in, possibly the sound of it drawing electricity. I have tried plugging it into different outlets or places on the powerstrip. My solution is to leave the item unplugged when not in use. It was fairly easy to assemble and came quickly, which were my other motivations for purchasing it.

I received this desk yesterday. I found the instructions to be easy to follow and was able to put the unit together in a little over an hour...no rework required which rarely happens for me! Quality of the structural components seems quite good. The desk looks great assembled. There were no defects anywhere and the pre-drilled holes lined up perfectly. I didn't bother to use a drill, a screwdriver was sufficient. Although the controller doesn't look too robust, it works fine as does the motor. Overall, this is a quality, good looking, well-engineered desk. Reliability will be determined as I use it...if I have any future issues with it I plan to update this review. Hopefully, this will be my last word on the subject.

Easy assembly and works great. Would purchase again. Was a bit nervous with the lower cost but surprised with the outcome!
