ApexDesk Vortex Series M Edition 60" Electric Height Adjustable Standing Desk with Memory Controller, Rustic Grey

I have been using this for over 6 months now and I can't say how much I'm pleased with this purchase. It was very difficult to justify the spend before I bought it. But I needed a desk that looked simple, elegant and did everything that this one did like raise up when needed. I am a programmer and work on my desktop quite frequently for long periods at a stretch. I saw a few reviews online of various such products and figured that a rising desk would be of immense help for my back. So that I can stand and work when needed.My Requirements:1) Raising desk2) Simple to assemble3) Roomy one if I can get one4) Looks very elegantAnd I think I'm a 5 out of 5 for all of those categories with this purchase.Pros:1) Very easy to assemble. Took me less than an hour to get this whole thing together up and running.2) I must say that this one looks gorgeous. I got the cherry top one. Absolutely gorgeous and a solid feel.3) The Up and Down buttons work as expected. And the transition is smooth. It will make a little bit of sound but nothing funky.4) Very roomy. I have a ton of things sitting on this one now. Two laptops, a Mac mini, monitor, bluetooth speaker, table lamp, Alexa and a couple of books.Cons:1) Oscillates a little bit - given that it stands on just two legs, it is expected. But still noting it down so that you are aware of it.2) There should have been a pocket for an extension cord, so that I can just attach all the plugs to that one. Now all of my wires connected to gadgets sitting on my desktop have to be long enough to withstand the height that this desk can rise. But obviously a number of phone chargers are not long enough, so I had to buy a new set of phone chargers. Thankfully my Mac Mini and monitor chargers are long enough.Overall, this is a top notch product and I'd definitely recommend getting one.

Very steady desk and exceptional value! Love it!I have been using standing desk at work for two years. Really like it. The company issued desk is heavy and expensive, and costs around $1500.Time has come for me to get one for my home office. After spending much of my Black Friday weekend on Amazon looking for a deal on standing desk, I narrowed my choices to Apexdesk’s 71” desk that has a lot of great reviews and this one that has no reviews. The decision was easy. After taking a few measurements, I only have space for a 60” desk.The desk arrived very fast. The packaging is really good. The frame is shrink-wrapped and well-protected. The assembly was easy and took less than 30 minutes. Nice attention is paid to some details. Long screws for the legs are painted black and different from the rest. There are even more screws and washers to spare. Once I had the desk up and running, there are a couple surprises for someone who is familiar with standing desk. The desk is very sturdy yet on a light aluminum frame. Common wisdom seems to suggest that weight lends itself to stability. Not for this desk. It is even steadier than the expensive and heavy standing desk at work. I was also surprised how the desk is wired. It is super clean and not clustered underneath. The only visible wire that comes out of the desk is the power cord to the wall outlet.The work surface has nice cherry finish. The edge banding is excellent and almost seamless. The desk looks better than the images and is the right size for my purposes. I clamped on two 22” monitors on a single stand to the desk, and hooked up a lot bunch of devices. The desk depth is about 30” and is the right distance for me. It is neither too close nor too far for me to see monitors.This is a great-looking and well-made desk. Great value!. Definitely one of best deals I have ever found on Amazon.

I became acquainted with these rising desks at a job I had in IT where they were provided to us. I LOVE being able to switch between standing and sitting. It feels so good to stand after sitting a while - and then it feels so good to sit after standing a while. Apparently there are a bunch of health benefits to this as well.So the desk I had at work was noticeably quieter and faster, had options to set pre-set heights, and was more solid and stable, BUT cost 4 times as much as this! (Glad I didn't have to buy it.) I was completely content paying around $500 for this one for my home office and it's been completely adequate and has met my needs completely.I'm actually writing this review 3 years after purchasing it, and it has been used for several hours a day, almost every day, for that period, and it's been great. I don't raise it every day, but some days I'll raise and lower it multiple times.In short, this is not the "Cadillac" of rising desks, but it's a solid and dependable "Corolla"! I happily recommend it!

I have been using this desk now for a few weeks and it has been great so far. The build quality is excellent and it feels quite sturdy and does not wobble much when standing. Setup was a breeze, minus a couple of oddities that I had to work around, but the parts were labeled well and the instruction manual was easy to understand. I would recommend using a plastic desk protector to protect the desktop surface from damage from everyday usage. I used Desktex Anti-Slip Polycarbonate Desk Protector, 29 x 59 Inches, Rectangular, Clear (FPDE2949RA) which was pretty well perfectly sized with the "New Cherry Top" desk option, except I had to cut holes for the wire grommets.
