MAIDeSITe Height Adjustable Electric Standing Desk Frame Two-Stage with Heavy Duty Steel Stand up Desk Computer Desk with Automatic Memory Smart Pannel (Black)

Compact packaging reveals a solid rising desk frame. Simple instructions lead to easy assembly by just one person. It included locking wheels to replace the rubber pads if you want. I did and is still rock steady. I used a repurposed and cut down solid wood dining table top as the desk top. Suitable self taping screws included made it so easy. The hardest part was working out how to centre the frame on the desk top. Once plugged in the motor is nice and quiet and the action smooth. There are 4 presents which is very handy too. All in very happy with quality, ease of assembly, price and prompt delivery by Amazon.

I am so pleasantly surprised with this. I already had an IKEA desk top and have started working from home a lot more recently so have thought about getting one of these frames for ages. It's very heavy, I had to carry it upstairs in 2 parts. I was able to put it together myself, it was really easy, took me about an hour but I'm a DIY novice. I have an ideacentre and another monitor - the desk is very sturdy, only wobbles slightly at full height but not enough to worry me. It's also surprisingly quiet. It feels good quality and I think it will last a long time, only time can tell! It came with extra screws to attach to desk top which was good. Maybe il update this review in a few months to confirm 😀 Update 3 months later: this desk is still standing strong, works perfectly and there have been absolutely no issues with it. I love using it and have found I am less tired and more active while working. I definitely recommend this and have even had a few friends buy it after using mine.

I purchased just the legs from Maidesite and then the top was from a beech kitchen countertop which had a roundover routed and then oiled. Regarding just the legs, I have been very impressed. The build quality seems very high and the finish is great. Assembly was very straight forward and took no more than an hour (including adding the table top). With the weight of the table top, 2x 27" monitors, a laptop, 2x speakers and my general work papers etc, the desk still moves up and down effortlessly and while it does make a whiring noise it lasts for about 15 seconds while the table adjusts its height (see video). Some may find that annoying in an office but for home working it causes no issues. Goes without saying that the cabling has to be somewhat organised as the table lifts up and down the cords do dangle and can get caught. Fixing an extension lead with the 3M industrial velcro worked very well at securing it under the table and further cable organisation was done with more sticky clips and cable ties. I'd recommend laying everything out before cable tying to save some time re routing wires. Also included was some stick on cable clips which were very useful. I mounted a 6 port TeckNet hub so I can charge my headphones, iPad and Garmin easily at the desk using the included rubber cable tidy and also used it to power a wireless charger under the monitors so I don't have to keep unplugging and plugging my phone in during the work day.

This desk is perfect for those looking to get into standing desks and want a budget option. The height adjustment is great and is suitable for most peoples needs. Building this standing frame was simple and did not take more than 30 minutes by myself. I would recommend two people to work on this though. The best bit about it is you can have your own desk top, so I used my previous IKEA desktop which works perfectly. I've given it 4 stars because when the desk is in a higher/standing mode, it does have some wobble. I do have a 34" ultrawide on a monitor arm. Despite this, it doesn't feel like it is going to collapse. I have had some issues with the motor/control panel giving an ERROR message, however - this is easily fixed by their instructions and they have a YouTube channel with plenty of resources available.

I was slightly wary ordering this but was very pleasantly surprised when it arrived. The stand was well packed and once I began to get the pieces out of the box, I could tell they were well made and solid. The stand comes with a 14 page instruction booklet on how to assemble it which I found fairly clear, although a little more explanation in some places would have helped. All the screws and fixtures are included and packed in labelled pouches so you can easily see what to use at each step. Once assembled, the desk is stable, the motor is smooth and the height settings clear and easy to set. I can't comment about durability yet, but otherwise this is an excellent stand. (I used the desktop from a previous desk which fitted well) I have another sit stand desk which cost about 4 times the price but I can't honestly see much difference in the quality. I'm really pleased with this and would definitely recommend it.

1) The stand and parts are all solidly constructed and can easily take the weight of a desk worktop - built to last 2) Great clear step-by-step instructions. A lot of these products have very poor guides that make assembling a very frustrating experience. 3) Works great 4) Customer service - I had a faulty control unit and their customer team promptly sent a replacement without issue via speedy courier service 5) Areas to improve - the control unit is the only part I worry about durability. It is fitted under the desk which means the arm rest of a chair could easily damage the piece. I'd suggest maybe a fitting on the top of the worktop to avoid this issue and making it a little more durable.

So, I was skeptical of purchasing this initially. At £180 (as they had a £20 promo) it seemed too good to be true, as the other most popular one on Amazon was £240 - which I was going to buy. Usually, if something is too good to be true, that's because it is. Looked into the company, they have a YouTube channel and a good online presence, so nothing seemed off there. Well reviewed and checking the warranty, it was quite lengthy at 5 years, which usually shows the company is willing to put their money where their mouth is and have confidence that their product isn't going to cost them in those 5 years. I only bought the frame, and paired it with a new BEKANT top from IKEA (£55, 602.531.84, lucky to find one in stock locally to collect), both in white. All in, it cost me around £250, which for a motorised memory standing desk and an IKEA desk top was incredible value. It looks really good and they compliment each other well. I needed to pickup some washers and screws, as the desk top isn't that thick. I used 4mm/5mm nickle washers (although nylon would have been better) with a bag of self tapping 4.8 x 16mm flange head black screws. I used the screws with a washer each for the frame, then 3-5 washers per screw for the control panel and the other mountable bits, like the cable management. Both of those I bought from Amazon as well, for all of a few quid, Connex washer kit and a bag of 100 Sealey screws. It only comes with machine screws to mount the official first party desk top, so you'll need to purchase some of your own if you want to use a different top. The frame came incredibly well packaged, Linus Sebastian would be proud. Super thick and foamy sponge, with cardboard reinforcements in the corners, as seen in the pictures. What isn't pictured is that the box does come with a thick foam piece covering the top as well. The box weighs a ton, but that is to be expected. It's mainly the legs that pile on the weight, but hey it makes the desk solid and sturdy, and the legs also appear to have an internal seal around the top to stop dirt getting in. All the parts are high quality and feel premium, nothing feels like its been cheaped out on. They have really thick rubber gaskets on all of the touch points between the frame and the desk top, which is excellent at reducing vibrations and noise between the top and the frame. The control panel uses a really nice soft silcone, with stylish buttons and a bright sharp digital figure 8 style display, it looks really professional and the buttons feel satisfying to press. Its simple to put together with clear and well produced instructions, with their 30 minute estimate being accurate. My only gripe is the motor/frame is a bit noisy when its moving, but considering its used for only a few seconds during adjustment, its not a deal breaker. Not a grating sound, more just mechanical movement. It's smooth and has no problem lifting a fair amount of weight (macbook, 27" monitor, custom build pc, peripherals, cables mounted underneath, etc.). I stand 6'2", and at 110cm its comfortable to use stood up with no wobble or frame movement (I tihnk the max is 120cm?), it feels as sturdy as when its at my sitting height of 74cm which is excellent! It only takes around 5 seconds to adjust between those two heights, which is quick. So far, no complaints! Hoping the motor remains good and the leg mechanisms too.

I've been using this desk stand for a few months now, and it's time to share my thoughts. Height Adjustment Over time, I've noticed the height adjustment has slowed down a bit. It's not a major issue for me, but it's worth noting. The stand still works well, though. Stability One of the standout features is the impressive stability. Even at its maximum height, the stand remains solid. This is a welcome change from other stands I've used in the past that tend to wobble at lower heights. Assembly My only gripe with assembly is the need to screw through the underside of the desk for a more permanent installation. I'd prefer an option that doesn't require this, as not everyone may want to make permanent changes to their desk. Child Safety A minor concern is that my daughter has accidentally touched the keypad, causing the desk to move unexpectedly. It would be great if there was an unlock button to prevent this for safety reasons. In Conclusion: I highly recommend this desk stand, provided you're prepared for potential additional hardware requirements depending on your mounting needs. Overall, it's a solid product with a few minor quirks, but it gets the job done.
