Sanodesk EP1 Set Electric Standing Desk (White Frame, Maple Desktop, 110cm x 54cm)

What is the height adjustment range and how fast does it move?

The desk adjusts from 73.5cm to 118cm, covering both sitting and standing positions for most users. The electric motor moves the desk smoothly and quietly, taking approximately 15-20 seconds to travel the full range. The movement is gradual enough to prevent items from sliding off whilst being fast enough for practical daily use.

How many height presets can I store in the memory panel?

The memory control panel stores up to four different height settings. You can program your ideal sitting height, standing height and save two additional positions for other users or specific tasks. Simply press and hold the desired memory button when the desk reaches your preferred height to save that position.

What weight can this desk safely support?

The desk has a 70kg weight capacity, though the safety guidelines recommend not exceeding 60kg for optimal performance. This supports multiple monitors, desktop computers, printers and other office equipment. The weight is distributed across the entire desktop surface, so you can position heavy items anywhere on the desk.

Does the desktop come in one piece or multiple sections?

The desktop arrives in three separate pieces that connect using dowels and metal plates underneath. Whilst this creates visible join lines on the surface, they become less noticeable once you place monitors and equipment on the desk. This design allows for easier shipping and handling during assembly.

How difficult is the assembly process?

Assembly typically takes 1-2 hours for one person with basic DIY skills. The package includes two Allen keys and a small spanner, so you only need a screwdriver. The instructions guide you through attaching the legs, connecting the motor and joining the desktop sections. Most users find it straightforward if they follow the steps carefully.

Is the motor noisy when adjusting height?

The motor produces a quiet whining sound during height adjustment but is not disruptive to office environments. The noise level is comparable to a printer or coffee machine and only lasts for the 15-20 seconds needed to change position. Many users report it's quiet enough to use during video calls without causing distraction.

What accessories are included with the desk?

The desk includes a cup holder, hooks for hanging items like headsets and cable management clips. The cup holder attaches to either side of the desktop, whilst the hooks can be positioned where most convenient. Cable clips help route the motor wiring and your device cables neatly along the desk frame.

What are the sustainability credentials of this desk?

The maple desktop carries FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) certification, meaning the wood comes from responsibly managed forests that meet strict environmental and social standards. This certification ensures the timber is harvested sustainably without contributing to deforestation or harming local communities and wildlife.
