FAQs

What is the weight capacity of this standing desk?

The desk supports substantial weight loads thanks to its high-grade alloy steel construction and telescopic leg design. The industrial-strength materials and engineering provide excellent stability for multiple monitors, computers and office equipment. The robust frame maintains stability even when fully extended to maximum height.

How noticeable is the seam where the desktop pieces join?

The horizontal seam sits 47.6cm back from the front edge, positioning it well behind your typical work area. Most users find it barely noticeable during daily use since keyboards, mice and documents sit in front of the seam. The two pieces align flush when properly assembled, creating a smooth surface for writing and working.

What height range does this desk cover and who can use it comfortably?

The desk adjusts from 71cm to 114cm height, accommodating users from approximately 152cm to 193cm tall. At the lowest setting, it works well for seated work with standard office chairs. At maximum height, it provides comfortable standing positions for taller users. The wide range makes it suitable for shared workspaces with multiple users.

How difficult is assembly and what tools are required?

Assembly typically takes 30-60 minutes with clear, detailed instructions included. You'll need a Phillips head screwdriver, which isn't provided. The key is to loosely fit all screws first, then tighten them gradually and evenly to prevent the desktop from bowing. All other necessary hardware and tools are included in the package.

How fast does the desk raise and lower between positions?

The electric motor operates at a steady, practical speed that balances efficiency with safety. It takes approximately 15-20 seconds to travel the full height range from lowest to highest position. The smooth, quiet operation won't disturb colleagues in shared office spaces and the controlled speed prevents items from sliding off during adjustment.

What cable management features are included?

The desk includes multiple cable management solutions: pop-open grommets in the desktop surface for routing cables, a moveable wire basket that mounts underneath for power strips, Velcro cable ties for bundling wires and 3M adhesive cable clips for routing along the desk edges. These features help maintain a clean, organised workspace.

Is the desktop surface durable enough for daily office use?

The laminated maple finish provides excellent scratch and stain resistance for daily office tasks. The engineered wood construction maintains its appearance even with regular use of keyboards, mice and writing instruments. The surface is smooth enough for comfortable writing yet durable enough to withstand years of office equipment placement and movement.

How stable is the desk when fully extended to standing height?

The telescopic steel legs and high-grade construction provide exceptional stability even at maximum height. Users report minimal wobble during typing or leaning on the desk surface. The wide leg stance and quality materials ensure the desk remains rock-solid whether on carpet or hard flooring, even in the fully extended standing position.
