I've had the Bekant desk for about a year now. I haven't had problems with the motor or controller. My experience is about the same as the reviewer of the Skarsta. The Bekant isn't super stable at higher heights, but works well. I recommend it.
I'd consider the hand crank next time or if I were filling an office with desks. Motorized isn't really that much of a bonus for me.
- AndyMcConachie 11y agoAgree. I also have the Bekant, and it's been fine. The motor is nice if I do need to adjust the height.
- wbrendel 11y agoThe BEKANT is definitely hit-or-miss when it comes to reliability. The motors on mine died just over a month after purchasing it, and some searching at the time revealed it to be a pretty common issue. Luckily IKEA has a generous return policy and I was able to return it with no questions asked. When it did work, however, I agree it generally worked well and was mostly stable enough. I just couldn't risk having to disassemble my desk whenever the motors broke.
