Why do shoppers love it?

Shoppers have plenty of great things to say about this beautiful standing desk, from the high-quality construction and materials to how relatively easy it is to put it together. It’s heavy and can make a bit of noise, but that’s expected for something that’s so sturdy and highly adjustable. It looks incredible in your favorite room, it’s a joy to use, and it offers unbeatable value and flexibility when you need a desk that can do a bit of everything.

“This is a great utility table desk for the money. The top looks surprisingly good and is very heavy,” said one reviewer. “The fit and finish of the legs is great, and the bottom of the tabletop is fitted with threaded inserts, making installation almost foolproof. The top goes up and down with ease, and it’s even and smooth. It might be a little noisy when you’re adjusting it, and the desk is heavy, but overall it looks great and works well.”
