Pretty affordable and well made standing desk (~$250). The only problem is having to crank the desk up and down can get tedious after a while, but I'd rather do that than shell out $2k for a motorized standing desk.
- poletopole 6y agoI have the powered Bekant or possibly an earlier version of it and after a couple years it still works great. It does have a weight limit but can typically support most use cases. However I have to admit that I’ve been lazy lately and don’t stand as much as I should, ha.
- netjiro 6y agoBoth IKEA skarsta (€200 manual) and bekant (€500 electric) are great. I've helped several of my friends install them this year. It's easy to switch out the desk surface to whatever you want. I switched out the plastic for a much larger (0.8*2.0m) edge glued robinia wooden surface. Love it.
- commonturtle 6y agoOh wow, I didn’t know ikea had a motorised standing desk. Would be more than happy to pay $500 for that; hand-cranking the desk up and down gets tiring after a while.
