Good height adjustment range seems sturdy Assembly fairly easy but in the early portion of the instructions I would advise not tightening things down fully so that you can tweak alignment of the different parts more easily.

Easy to assemble sit stand desk

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] - ASSEMBLY: I was very impressed at the packaging and how easy the desk was to assemble. Each piece was clearly labeled both on the part and in the book and only one tool was required. Very excellent. My only complaint on assembly is the instructions for attaching and assembling the controller were very small and hard to decipher. - SETUP: I really appreciate that this desk has a place to hold all the ancillary yet bulky electronics as part of a basic set up i.e. corded docking station power strip laptop power adapter etc. This is an improvement from other desks I've used and keeps clutter off the desk. The downside is it's fairly small and only has assembly options at the center of the desk. My display mount attaches on the right side of the desk and many of my cords don't reach or are pulled taught so I wasn't able to put everything in it that I wanted to and ended up attaching my power strip to my mount with zip ties. Giving the user the flexibility to move this left right or center (kind of like the controller can be installed left or right) or making it wider would go a long way. - APPEARANCE: This is a beautiful sit stand desk. The wood grain is very pretty and a really on trend muted color with a hint of grey. The size is perfect for my space - spacious enough room for basic desk items without taking too much room. The controller is very discreet and even the buttons are visually well designed. - USAGE: The desk has a sit/stand range bigger than my previous desk. It has only two memory options and it would be nice to have one or two more. All the buttons are very intuitive and the motor is relatively quiet. It has an option to introduce "micromovements" which I've been trying but honestly haven't noticed anything. Not sure if I've been doing it wrong or it's so subtle that I don't notice which is probably a good thing. I love the idea of interrupting a long-held position for ergonomics. Overall this is a great upgrade to my existing desk.

The desk I never knew I needed

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This desk is incredible! Not only is it incredibly functional it’s also beautiful! It fit into my decor seamlessly and looks so good in the office. Adjusting the position couldn’t be easier. The buttons make it so simple and the micro movement feature made it incredibly easy to find the best position for me both sitting and standing. I really wasn’t sure how I would benefit from a standing desk I’ve always just sat at my desk but being able to stand has been a game changer! When I’m having a slow day being able to shift positions has been a life saver. And no more getting sore from sitting in an office chair for an extended period of time! One of my most favorite things about the desk was the built in cord storage. There’s no dangling cords or mess under the desk because everything fit neatly into its place. The only con I’ve found was that my husband said it was rather difficult to put together but he was still able to do it by himself in less than an hour (and he said it was totally worth the effort. He loves the desk too!) Overall I couldn’t rate the desk higher it is everything I never knew I needed!

Beautifully Functional

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been looking for a desk for our shared home workspace for quite some time. I wanted something that looked good he wanted something functional with a deep workspace. This was a great solution for both of our wants and needs. Plus it was easy and fast to assemble. I’m 5’8 and he is 6’1” and we have very different ideas of what comfortable workspace heights are this desk has the best range of height. I even lowered it and let our 7 year old use it to do his schoolwork. It is very easy to adjust and fast. I haven’t quite figured out what will be my optimal heights for sitting and standing yet but the convenience of having the display makes it nice for us both to use it and adjust it quickly. I’ve had back surgery and the micro-movement smart feature is a great gentle reminder to move my position. I end up working for long periods of time and forget to adjust. I am already less sore after a short time using it. So far this feature is my second favorite thing because this desk is absolutely beautiful! The top is very high quality and looks great. I like the shape of the base and it’s not hard to move. It has a good size work area so I have lots of room to spread out and feels very durable. Even my son hasn’t scratched it. Overall I am extremely happy with this desk.

Simple Design and Useful Desk for Work
on September 5, 2025
Posted by: A.S.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My overall impression of this sit-to-stand desk is that it is useful: a very practical and utilitarian work desk as well as spacious. I love the simple design to facilitate a clear mind space while working. The color is not my favorite; I would prefer something lighter or darker in color versus this more medium-brown color of the Espresso version. I appreciate the simple design of the legs underneath to be completely out of the way while also providing solid support to the desk to prevent any possible wobbling even if bumping into it. This desk also has a great design for the adjustment feature. Easy to understand and use and a light touch of the button helps you achieve the exact height that feels comfortable. It moves quickly enough to switch from standing to sitting heights depending on how you want to do your work in the moment. The micro-movement smart feature is brilliant! I easily and quickly found the perfect working position. I found that I preferred the standing position to boost my overall productivity. No pushing chairs around or out of my way as I go to and from my laptop at the desk. However I really appreciate that I can always easily and effortlessly lower this desk to sitting height if I'm ever working on a stationary project for a long period of time when I'd prefer to sit. My favorite things about this desk are definitely the size (large surface area of the desktop) and the easy-to-use electric-powered height adjuster!

Great desk with Quality feel
on September 6, 2025
Posted by: K.S.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The deal is great. I had another desk and this one has smaller micro movements which makes getting it in the perfect position that much better. Putting it together was easy instructions were excellent and I liked the fact the controls could be on either side of the desk. I like the cord manager on the underside but wish it was a tad bigger or more space I can only put the cords on it and would have loved for it to hang down a bit more for my power strip to fit in it with the cords. I will make do though. The controls are fantastic. I love the backlight and LOVE the memory option. All I have to do is hit the button. To sit or stand to my favorites and it was easy to program. I will say there can be a bit of a catch where it might not work first touch but press again and it will work. If you press the up or down button just once it also skips a few micro movements so it makes take a second of a longer press up and down to get exactly where you want. The auto movement option is also very intriguing. Benefits are it is moving my desk...aka body for me without any extra work on my part. It keeps me engaged by the subtle movements. It also makes zero sound when moving up and down using the auto adjustment function. Great feature looking forward to seeing the benefits over time from this feature. I also want to note the desk itself is aesthetically nice! The surface is smooth and wood grain look is convincing. The desk is great size too a bit deeper than my last desk which I greatly appreciate.

Productivity Enhancing Desk

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been in the market for a standing desk for quite some time. I work from home full time so I needed something that was both functional and aestetically pleasing. The workplace desk with micromovements has been great for both of these. The desk adjusts easily in very small increments. After standing for a period I noticed I was more comfortable if I moved the desk just a little bit instead of sitting down. The desk has the option to save two height settings. I've used this to bookmark a standing comfort level and a seated comfort level. The desk is very sturdy and a beautiful color. It fits perfectly into my office space and provides a large surface area for my monitor keyboard and mouse. I prefer to keep my space clear of clutter and do not feel cramped. When introducing the option of standing during the day I have found myself to be more productive and able to focus with more ease. I don't find myself becoming distracted by other tasks or items on the desk as much as I did when sitting at a traditional desk. Additionally I am able to use a walking pad under the desk! It fits perfectly and is easy to position when the desk is at a standing height. Walking while on calls helps me to focus as well. I find myself more in tune with the content of the meeting instead of attempting to multi-task with email or chats. This desk is a great addition to my office and my lifestyle. I expect to use it for years to come.

Great Adjustable Work Station

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Workplace 2.0 Espresso Micromovement Desk has truly been a blessing to me and my back. I was having to do all my charting and invoices by sitting alot. Due to a pinched nerve I can’t sit for too long but thanks to Micro movement this electric adjustable desk I can stand and finish my work. This standing desk has a range of height adjustments with a height range from 25.6” to 51.2” . The desk will rise 2.36 inches over 5 minutes providing gentle elevation for your customized position. After reaching its peak height the desk will pause for 2 minutes before gradually lowering back down. These micro movement cycles are programmed to repeat four times within a 48-minute period perfectly aligned with a 4-hour block of focused work. This desk has a lot of work space for your computer telephone all your files and folders etc. Cable management for a tidy and organized workspace. Very sturdy frame. This desk is heavy . It does not wobble as you move from place to place. I truly recommend Micromovement Desk to all busy work people. Also with me not sitting as long since I’ve got this desk I feel more productive and have less distractions.
