Vivo Electric Stand Up Desk Frame DESK-E-200B (Black)

What tabletop sizes are compatible with this frame?

The frame accommodates tabletops from 102cm to 196cm in length and 58cm to 109cm in width. The minimum thickness requirement is 2cm. The frame itself adjusts from 102cm to 146cm width to match your chosen tabletop. Popular sizes include 150cm x 75cm and 160cm x 80cm desktops, though custom sizes within the specified range work perfectly.

How much weight can the desk support and does this include the tabletop?

The frame supports up to 100kg when connected to power and this capacity includes both the tabletop weight and any items placed on the surface. A typical wooden tabletop weighs 15-25kg, leaving 75-85kg capacity for computers, monitors and office equipment. The weight capacity reduces when the desk is unplugged, so maintaining power connection is essential for full load bearing.

How fast does the desk adjust and how quiet is the operation?

The dual motors lift the desk at 3cm per second, taking approximately 16 seconds to travel from minimum to maximum height. The operation produces a gentle humming sound that's suitable for office environments. The motors are significantly quieter than single motor alternatives and the built-in thermal protection prevents overheating during frequent adjustments throughout the day.

Is assembly difficult and what tools are required?

Assembly typically takes 45-60 minutes with two people and requires basic tools like a screwdriver and Allen keys. The frame comes with detailed instructions and most necessary hardware. Two people are recommended due to the weight of the steel components and the need to align parts during assembly. No specialised tools or electrical knowledge is required.

Can I use this frame with an existing tabletop?

Yes, this is designed specifically for DIY installation with existing tabletops. You'll need to drill mounting holes in your tabletop according to the provided template. The frame works with wood, laminate and other solid materials that meet the thickness requirement. Ensure your tabletop is structurally sound and within the size parameters before installation.

What happens if the power goes out while the desk is raised?

The desk will remain at its current height when power is lost, but the weight capacity reduces significantly without power. The frame includes a manual lowering mechanism for emergencies, though this should only be used when necessary. It's recommended to lower the desk to sitting height before extended power outages to maintain full structural support.

How do the memory settings work and can they be changed?

The controller features three memory buttons that store your preferred heights. To set a memory position, adjust the desk to your desired height, then press and hold the memory button until you hear a beep. The settings remain stored even when unplugged. You can reprogram any memory position at any time by repeating this process.

What warranty coverage is provided and what components are most likely to need service?

The frame comes with limited warranty coverage on manufacturing defects. The motors and controller are the primary electronic components that could require service over time. The steel frame itself is highly durable and rarely needs replacement. Regular maintenance involves keeping the telescopic legs clean and occasionally checking bolt tightness to ensure continued smooth operation.
