ErGear 48 X 24 Inch Height Adjustable Electric Standing Desk, Black

I’ll start by saying a riser desk is a health requirement! After 3 years of sitting and working from home I developed a SEVERE case of sciatic pain and probably some nerve damage. I started going in the office once a week and started standing with my office riser desk. Although it was a little uncomfortable standing I stood for about 4 hours and the pain became less uncomfortable. Sitting forces everyone to lean forward which puts a lot of strain on your back and neck. I have an office set up downstairs with an executive desk so the days the sciatic pain was too bad I wanted/needed something upstairs. This riser desk is perfect in many ways: it rises higher than I expected (definitely higher than the one in my office), probably goes lower than I need, has 3 self-programmable settings, is easy to assemble, has storage hooks on both sides of the desk, a cable management “tray” and is a third of the price for a similar riser desk at a brick and mortar store. As for assembly. The box and packaging was perfect with lots of foam cushioning so nothing was dented or damaged. The instructions were clear where it was needed and the illustrations were large so I didn’t accidentally connect anything in the wrong direction. There was even a business sized card with a QR code to watch an installation video. I didn’t use it or need it so I can’t really comment on that. The desktop comes in 2 sections, but it appears that the way you install it makes it very sturdy. It says the desktop will hold 176 pounds. The one advice I’ll add is it say to use a screwdriver or drill for assembling the top. The holes are tight so if using a screwdriver make sure the Phillips end isn’t chipped. You’ll also need a good grip and strong wrist. Yup, it’s that tight!!! Because I have nerve damage I started with the screwdriver and finished it with a screwdriver drill - an electric screwdriver doesn’t have enough torque to do this job. The 2 center screws by the legs you may need to use only a screwdriver as it’s hard to get a drill in there. Also it’s almost impossible to mess up the screw heads with a drill, but make sure you the correct sized screwdriver bit to get a good “bite” on the screw. I set mine up by myself in about 45 minutes. This desk comes in multiple sizes and colors so you cannot go wrong on a pick unless your spouse tells you that you picked the wrong color. Just had to take another glance at mine. LOL Not much else to add except I would recommend getting a drafting stool for health reasons and for easier transitioning from sitting to standing and an anti-fatigue mat to stand on. Hope this helps anyone reading it. I’ll add some pictures after I order some additional monitors and set up my new desk.

I am in love with this desk! I recently started a remote job and wanted a simple stand up desk. It was time consuming but easy to assemble thanks to the clear picture instructions. It is very sturdy & holds my 2 monitors, a laptop, docking station, keyboard & mouse perfectly fine. But my favorite part is the stand up feature!! This desk is so simple to change from sitting to standing. The electronics are simple to use and sturdy, so I know my equipment is safe while the desk moves up and down. It also moves up & down at the perfect speed. It’s not too fast or too slow. I absolutely love it! I’d recommend this desk to anyone looking for a simple yet sturdy stand up desk. I am very pleased with it!

I was a little nervous about buying this desk because I wasn’t sure what to expect for the price, but I was pleasantly surprised. It arrived securely packaged with all the necessary parts included. Assembly was straightforward for one person and took about 20–30 minutes. It would probably be even quicker with a drill, but I was able to assemble everything using only a screwdriver. The desk itself feels sturdy and well-made. It’s perfect for studying, and I love that you can program up to four different height settings. I’m 5’10”, and I can comfortably use it while either sitting or standing. I would definitely recommend this desk, especially for the price.

Perfect desk for what I needed. I needed a flat surface that would adjust to the task, whether it was gaming on the computer or building a craft project. Has an accurate and incremental height adjustment, so it can be comfortable for any use. The motor is powerful, setup was fairly simple, and so far it seems to be holding up well.

I'm loving this height-adjustable desk for its simplicity of design, perfect size, and smooth operation. The desk offers a sturdy and stable platform for my computer and accessories. Especially nice is the 4-preset button command center, which allows you to pre-set your desk to four different heights to include standing or sitting positions. The assembly was not particularly difficult, but care needs to be taken to insert the parts in the right places. The adjustable height allows me to dial in my comfort zone to the millimeter. There is no wobble on this desk, and it operates smoothly without any fear of things falling off the surface. One thing to keep in mind is cable management. As a desk that can change heights, you need to make sure that items on your desk have enough cable slack so when you extend the height, they don't get pulled off the surface top. One thing I was disappointed with is that the desk surface is made of particle board, which tends to chip and fray at the edges, especially in the front where you mostly rub against it with your arms or body. I found a third-party solution with a metal IKEA desk mat that perfectly covers the edge of this desk and makes the whole thing solid. I have been very happy with this purchase, and for the price, it cannot be beat! Other tables in this range are much more expensive. Additional features include headphone and purse hooks, which help keep things a bit tidy. The legs are metal and solid. Taking one star away due to the easily damaged top surface – thankfully, I was able to correct this with the IKEA desktop cover.

This desk has been gray over the last five years. It’s pretty durable, but if you’re moving, definitely take the time to take it apart, even if only removing the legs. However, if it does break the company behind, it is amazing over the years they have sent me multiple parts. No questions asked! Make sure you register it for the warranty. I was able to put this together pretty quickly by myself with a small power drill. (I felt so accomplished.) it’s not too big. In fact I wish I would’ve gone a little bigger but the comfort level and the alignment is perfect. I got the color black and the appearance is great. Around year three there were some issues adjusting it. (this was probably my fault.) but the company sent me a new piece and it’s perfect again!

I recently purchased this standing desk and have been very impressed with it overall. The motor is extremely quiet when raising and lowering the desk, which was important to me, and it moves smoothly without any jerking. I use two computer monitors on pedestals, and I was pleasantly surprised that they stay completely stable while the desk is in motion—no shaking or shifting at all. Assembly was straightforward and easy to follow, which made setup quick and stress-free. There was a small damaged spot when it arrived, but it was minor and didn’t affect the functionality, so it wasn’t a dealbreaker for me. The surface is also very easy to wipe down and keep clean. Overall, I’m very happy with this purchase and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a sturdy, quiet, and user-friendly standing desk.

Based on the price, I was positively surprised by the apparent very high quality of this desk. The real test of quality is with durability, of course, but so far, it seems to be rock solid and very well designed. Assembling it is easy. The only slightly odd in it is the fact that the desk surface is split longitudinally in two, but it's more an aesthetic issue than anything else.

Very easy to setup and sturdy.

Desk is great, easy to set up. Great to use and really happy on my purchase!

Had a very good experience with the item and seller, the item was durable, easy to assemble and looked really nice. The seller was very helpful and happy to assist whenever needed👌🏻

I just put this desk together, and I LOVE this thing. I bought it kinda begrudgingly to save some money instead of buying a very expensive, fancy bells-and-whistles standing desk. And you know what? This desk is great. it looks good, it went together easily, it raises and lowers just as well as any other desk. You could build an empire from a desk like this. I am a busy marketing guy, and spend a lot of time at the desk, and this will be a huge advanage for anyone who paces while they think like I do. Highly recommended. Incredible value.

I tried to find reviews of this desk online. Most were from non-trustworthy (to me) sources since they were almost all affiliates, so I was a bit concerned. One of the issues that some of the online reviews have with standing desks in general is that they are not very stable when raised to their top level. Also, as someone who is 6 feet tall with a fairly long back, I was a bit worried that it would not be tall enough. I was wrong on both counts. This desk is shockingly sturdy considering it goes up to 118cm (46.5 inches) when fully extended. My monitor wobbles a bit when I am typing, but it is a pretty wobbly monitor to begin with. I bought the 63-inch one, which was the right one for my needs. I have my work laptop, a big (wobbly) monitor, and a printer on it and it is exactly the right width. If you have just 2 screens, a smaller one might be enough but with 3 screens you need the biggest size. The desk is not very deep, and some people are bothered by the seam in the middle. Given the amazing price of this desk, I am totally ok with the seam. And the depth seems to have been calculated precisely so that it can fit through a standard residential door without needing to be tipped over and without being disassembled. Overall, I VERY strongly recommend this desk as a home office solution. It is surpassing my expectations.
