Artiss Electric Standing Desk Motorised Adjustable Sit Stand Desks Grey Oak

I highly recommend this sit / stand desk! I’ve been using it for two weeks and it has certainly helped with my back pain from sitting all day. It was easy to program the stand and sit heights, so I just have to push a button when it’s time to sit or stand. After reading reviews, I thought my husband might have some issues to assemble the desk but he said it was easy to do and it didn’t take him very long at all. The quality is good and my only regret is not buying this desk sooner!

This is a great desk. I had a handyman put it together and I would recommend that unless you are particularly skilled. However, once assembled, it's great. I work as a psychologist and after I have sat with a client for 50 minutes, it's great to stand and complete notes etc. at my desk. At other times it's great to sit at the desk and write reports. The transition from these two positions is quiet and smooth. When sitting, it's also great to adjust the height of the desk to suit body size.

A very solid desk with clear assembly instructions

The artiss frame is a beast! One immediately notices the solid materials and quality construction. This thing is satisfyingly heavy. Once assembled, the desk goes up. And it goes down. Having preset heights is a great feature. The desk is functional, comfortable, easy to operate, and I reckon it looks pretty good too.All parts are numbered and clearly referenced by number in the assembly instructions. And the distinct screw types are each grouped into separate numbered pouches. For the most part, this leads to very clear and easy to follow instructions. The cable organisation options are also great. However, a few small details could be improved.1. The caddy for holding the power transformer just hangs on a rail and after installation this feels unfinished - why ... MoreThe artiss frame is a beast!

And the distinct screw types are each grouped into separate numbered pouches. For the most part, this leads to very clear and easy to follow instructions. The cable organisation options are also great. However, a few small details could be improved.1. The caddy for holding the power transformer just hangs on a rail and after installation this feels unfinished - why isn't it properly fixed in place instead of freely sliding? It didn't bother me too much, other than wondering if I was missing something in the instructions. I guess it could be secured using one of the surplus screws included, but there are no holes in the metal caddy.2. Not all necessary holes were predrilled in the desk top. The most important ones for attaching the corners of the frame were predrilled, and lining them up with the frame to attach the desk top does take some patience (you can't easily see the holes in the desk top while trying to line them up with the frame holes). For the additional holes, I considered drilling where needed, but instead of getting the drill from my garage, I ended up just pushing hard on the screwdriver to drive in the self-tapping screws, which worked fine. To be clear though, if all fasteners are installed as per instructions, the result is very solid (lifting/moving the desk by holding the desk top is absolutely fine, despite the heavy frame).3. The exact placement of the motor control box is up to you because predrilled holes are not provided. You should definitely plug in all of the cables to ensure everything reaches before screwing in this box! Plugging everything in is the final step in the instructions (after screwing the box in to place). I was lucky and didn't have to move anything, but without checking the cable lengths first, this could require redoing the earlier step.So overall, I'd give this is a 4.5/5. 5 stars for the assembled desk, 4 stars for the assembly process.

Good desk

It is required an electric screwdriver to attach the legs and the table, the wood is to hard to make it with just a regular screwdriver, most of the screw will be half way long into the material. Electric system is working just fine. By the way the first layer of the desk is too fragile once it is perforated.

Good desk but configuration issues

The desk is very good. But couple of issues. One of the screw didn’t go in to the leg. Was faulty screw hole. Also, it didn’t come with a manual and I had to setup without any instructions i did pretty well. But shouldn’t it come with a manual? Nothing on the internet as well.

Great for the value!

For the price, this desk is great! It's sturdy, a good size and has a good height range. It was a tad tricky putting it together, but I've never put any furniture together before and I managed to figure it out so it's not too hard. It only has an up and down button, whereas other standing desks may have other buttons so you can save the height you like it to rise to, etc, however the lack of these functions is definitely worth missing out on when you're paying so little for the desk. Very happy with my purchase.

Great quality desk for a fair price

I think it's a really good desk for the price. It's single motor so a bit slower than most dual motor desks. I used to have a dual motor, saved settings desk the same size and to be honest I don't think it was worth double the price of this one.I give it 4/5 because the table top is "universal" so is missing some screw holes and has more than needed. Specifically for the control panels and middle bar.All in all I'm happy with it and will likely purchase another one for my partner.

Great value for money. Loving the stand-up life

Great desk. Great value for money. I considered spending a lot more but read some great reviews of this one and decided to give it a crack.The handyman who assembled it for me does office fit-outs for a living, so has a lot of experience with standing desks and said this one was really well made for the price.

Love the desk !

It was slightly difficult to put together, there was three of us as we needed an electric screwdriver to complete the installation so i had to wake up a neighbour. So, make sure you have friends and good neighbours. Or if you are that friend or neighbour this will be easy peasy to put together ! But I love the desk and it is the perfect size and is very sturdy as wel. So, it is a 4 for me as the installation could have been easier.

Value for money (No memory store buttons)

If you're looking for a basic standing desk, this can be a good option because it does what it is supposed to do.Pros:1. Value for money2. Good and decent look and size3. Quick deliveryCons1. Bit difficult to assemble(because assembling instructions booklet is written in hurry(I guess)2. No memory store function(only two buttons to move up and down)3. Bit noisy.
