Pros & Cons
Pros
The seller is very good and communication was good. The standup desk looks great and works as advertised.
Mechanism is both quick and quiet. It is faint, but fortunately, it isn't a putrid odour. Quiet enough that i can raise or lower it in an online meeting with no obvious auditory issues.
If you're happy with sourcing the desktop yourself, this is a very good way to get a quality desk like this for a third of the price. The table is sturdy and strong enough to comfortably lift my 2 monitors, bookshelf speakers.
The parts for the frame come nicely packed so there is very little risk of connector prongs being bent during transit, or parts scratching each other.
Good and solid product. Works well. Final product is well worth it. They look good. The motors are good. They are excellent.
Cons
The desk is now useless. It blocks my nice view/access to open/shut my window for fresh air.
Highlights
Quality
Easy to assemble easy to read instructions strong motor memory settings work well
Stand is fairly sturdy and vertical motion is quite quick especially with heavy monitors and printers on the desk which i was pleased about
After 3 days the smell has largely gone or perhaps ive gotten used to it
And to be frank i might scratch more whileim drilling the desktop on
Price
Constructing this desk was very rewarding and i was able to get exactly the desk i wanted for about a third of the retail price
Much easier to put together than expected and i saved a few hundred dollars when compared to buying complete desks
Negativesnormal price was expensive but i bought it on sale and asked for a bigger discount for buying two of them
I would say that at full extension there is a little bit of wobble so its not perfect but for the cost it performs extremely well
Shipping
I ordered on black friday and received it on monday which is awesome
The sellers are very helpful and responded quickly
And it was delivered within a week
I got this within 2 days of ordering which was quite a surprise

Competitiveness
Better than paying the same price for ikea one and this one offers a lot more
Much better than the others ive seen
I also installed an ikea signum cable tray under the desk for neater cable management and to hold a 6 plug powerboard
I went overkill and put on an ikea ekbacken worktop 104 cm x 186 cm

I had been looking for electric sitstand desks for a while and unsatisfied with the cost of prebuilt combinations i decided to go it alone

I found these legs as well as an 1800x700 solid walnut bench top not from ikea btw
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
The legs could be stretched further out id say even a 2m long desk would be attainable with a bit of overhang but 1800 is fine
