Superior Quality and Usability for Gaming, Programming, and School!
5 Stars
Superior Quality and Usability for Gaming, Programming, and School!
I found this desk during a very in depth search for the best desk for the money in the $600 price range, and the reviews all led me here. Most of the YouTube and website reviews everywhere from desk websites to furniture reviews recommend this desk unless you are willing to fork up twice the amount. I have to say, this desk is better than many you would fork up $1200 for! I purchased the 71" Concrete Top, Black Base version of this ApexDesk Elite Series.I will start with what I use it for: I use this desk for gaming and game development. I have two decently heavy monitors that are both 27" and a 17" HP ZBook Workstation (so not a small laptop by any means). They all fit along with my medium sized sound bar, 21 Pop! bobble head figures, my mouse, Logitech wireless charging mouse pad, my giant keyboard, my laptop cooler, a large 12-outlet power tower, and lots of cables and cords. Not only do these all fit on the desk nicely, but I have plenty of room for another 27" monitor (all in a row, none on top of each other), and much more! I love having the space to make games, and use my other utilities I need besides the computer to do it. If you are worried about the space to place everything, don't. This desk will fit all of the things you need, and more!I switched to a standing desk because I had a hernia surgery recently and my back has had issues ever since it went out lifting a bag of beans (believe it or not), and I head many things about the benefits of a standing desk for these issues, and just being healthier in general. I have to agree, in the short time I have had this, it already has helped relieve a lot of tension and pain in my back, and the surgical site is getting better by the day with this baby relieving most of the tension from it. A standing desk really is the way to go if you have back pain or other bodily pains like it.Now for the quality of the desk. I will admit that I have never tried another standing desk, but there isn't a single standing desk of this class and this price with a set of reviews like ApexDesk Elite Series! They deserve those reviews, because this desk, standing or sitting, is stable and durable. I am 6'7" and this desk keeps the top of the monitor and the top of my head level, which is what is recommended for posture, when at max-height (at the 48" setting, which is nice because many other desks do not raise to the height this one does), and sits very nicely when I lower it to my chair's height. It also is very quiet when raising and lowering compared to my dad's and moves at a decent speed. When standing at max-height, many other desks become pretty unstable, so I was concerned when buying this one that it would be the same. I was very wrong, this one has so little wobble, even when I shake it myself, that it is comparable to a normal non-standing desk when at max-height. Typing, moving the mouse, even lightly hitting the table to test wobble will not give almost at all. As a programmer, I look through a lot of small characters and words, wobbling makes it pretty hard to read; I actually have a hard time sometimes when my laptop screen shakes while I use it even the small bit it does. This desk is as stable as I could imagine a standing desk being. The tabletop is also very good quality from what I can tell, it feels sturdy, and leaning on it DOES NOT make me feel like it is going to break. The ergonomic shape is really nice and it truly helps with being closer to the monitors and make the desk all around easier to use.I was happy with the shipping. FedEx gave me a little hassle, but in the end Apex did very well and I got my packages one and two days early. The tabletop arrived two days early, and the leg and other assembly the next day with a day still until the predicted date on purchase. Not only was the desk in perfect condition thanks to ApexDesk layering in plenty of Styrofoam in the boxes and even more materials for padding, but they sent me a free set of cutout covers and a free cable tray. The cable tray they sent me for free is solid metal and very sturdy, and a decent size at that! When I got it out of the box, assembly took about 30-45 minutes from start to first stand at the desk raised up. They had a letter included and mentioned that the cable tray was a free gift and I was randomly selected, and that I had no obligation to mention it in any review I write. I appreciate them going out of their way to be a top-notch company and earn a long-time buyer.I would recommend this product to anyone in the market, my family and friends, and have in fact gotten my dad to the point this is his next desk. It is the best desk I have ever owned, and it is very good quality. The features are rich, and the shipping was quick and easy, just as the setup was. As a college student, I appreciate the space and stability. The price is well below what this product is worth, and I would love to return to buy my next desk from ApexDesk.From the other reviews, this company has the best customer support of any standing desks, and they are quick to replace damaged-in-shipping parts. The thank you letter was also a really nice touch. Thank you ApexDesk for the amazing product!I will update this review in the future if anything changes, but I have a feeling this 5-star review won't go away!EDIT: Nearly 4 years later this desk still deserves the same 5 star rating I gave above. It has been amazing all this time, the electronics haven't even had a hiccup, and the desktop hasn't even had the cover break at all. This all even after disassembling and moving across states with it twice, and disassembling and moving cities once. I would still 100% recommend this product to anyone looking for a quality standing desk that you can use for years and years to come. I currently work as a game developer for a AAA studio working on CoD, so I am using this desk for more than 8 hours per day, plus any gaming or free time I spend on it, and it is an absolute life saver. I would buy again, and absolutely will if this desk ever needs to be replaced.

Color: 60" Black Top, Black FrameVerified Purchase
ApexDesk Elite Pro Series 60" Electric Height Adjustable Standing Desk with a black top and black frame, and I couldn't be happier with my investment. This desk has truly transformed my workspace and made a positive impact on my daily routine.

First and foremost, the build quality is exceptional. The desk is sturdy and well-constructed, providing me with the confidence that it will last for years to come. The black frame not only looks sleek but also adds to the desk's durability.

The electric height adjustment mechanism is a game-changer. With just a press of a button, I can effortlessly switch between sitting and standing positions, which has greatly improved my comfort and productivity. The 60-inch desktop size is spacious enough for all my work essentials, including dual monitors, a keyboard, and various office accessories. The ability to customize the desk's height to my exact preferences ensures that I maintain good posture throughout the day, reducing strain on my back and neck.

The black top not only looks elegant but is also easy to clean and maintain. It's resistant to scratches and stains, ensuring that the desk continues to look great even with daily use.

Furthermore, the cable management system is a thoughtful addition, keeping my workspace neat and organized. No more tangled cables and clutter to deal with!

Assembly was surprisingly straightforward, and all the necessary tools were included in the package. The clear instructions made the process hassle-free, and I had my desk up and running in no time.

Overall, the ApexDesk Elite Pro Series 60" Electric Height Adjustable Standing Desk is a fantastic addition to any workspace. It combines durability, functionality, and style all in one package. I highly recommend it to anyone in need of an ergonomic and versatile desk solution. It has made a positive impact on my work environment and well-being, and I'm thrilled with my purchase!

Also, customer service is excellent, and they are very responsive if you need to contact them.

Reviewed in the United States on February 24, 2016
Update for 2020:
It has been over 5 years since I ordered this desk. The price is nearly the same, which is great. It continues to stand up (sorry) very well. I've since ordered the memory controller so that my height settings are consistent, but I admit I don't lift it up into the standing position as often as I used to. Even so, it makes for a great 'traditional' desk, and I still have the occasional person asking me what it is and where it is from.

The finish hasn't worn in the slightest. It seems to be invincible to everyday use. I've drilled a few holes on the underside for various things, and it is a VERY tough material to drill into, but it hasn't surrendered to any of the abuse I've put it through.

I would still say its only downside is the slight wobble when subjected to a good amount of weight. As of now, I have two 27 inch monitors and one 23 inch, a full tower, speakers, keyboard, mouse, about 12 lbs of aircraft gauges, and probably 20 lbs of additional junk slung onto it. Nothing seems to be any less stable. As long as you aren't hammering on it, you'll probably be happy with the stability.

If you happen to be very into making music, and you get a bit heavy handed with your weighted keyboard, your monitors might shake. Especially in a standing configuration. But for the price? I'm still thrilled with this desk, and would recommend it to anyone looking for a sit/stand desk that won't break the bank

----Original Review-----

In this review, I'm going to talk about this desk specifically, as well as standing desks in general.

First, some quick pros and cons:
+Most affordable sit/stand desk at this size (As of this writing)
+Free shipping!
+Easy to put together
+Attractive design
+Awesome customer service/company
+Quiet operation

-No memory controller option (Memory controller option is now offered, and you can upgrade. I have, and I recommend it)
-No cord management, even for the cords involved in the lift mechanism

About this desk:
Overall, I'm very happy with this product. Even as a standard desk, it works quite well, and looks great. They've included two grommets for running wires, and both are located where you'll actually want them (in the corners). The desk is stable, and I was surprised to find I really like the curvature they've added to the front.

The desk arrived in three very heavy boxes. The top, the cross bar and feet, and the lifting mechanisms. Each one was quite a bit heavier than I expected. Even so, I was able to haul it all up a flight of steps and put it together by myself. Everything is somewhat straightforward, but be sure to follow the instructions for the t-shaped parts (You'll see what I mean). Also make sure you don't pinch one of the wires between the frame and tabletop.

Operating the desk is exactly as simple as you'd expect. Press up to go up, press down to go down. On my desk, I get a audible pop when I get near the very lowest position, and sometimes when coming up to standing height. I was alarmed at first, but everything is still working fine, so it might be normal.

If you're like me, you've been all over the internet looking for a sit/stand desk that doesn't cost a thousand dollars. Let me tell you, this is probably as cheap as you're going to find them. It is important to note that most of these companies get their desk frames from the same company, so the majority of their price is markup. ApexDesk's price is simply the best I've found for a desk with these features. EVOdesk didn't even respond to my emails.

I work from home most of the time as a web designer and graphic artist. This left me sitting all day long. It turns out I'm a PC gamer too, so when work was done, I'd be sitting some more. I was sick of it. I wanted some options. This desk was the answer for me.

I normally start the day standing. It is hard to explain, but I really like being able to just walk up to the desk and work. I also find that I'm running around a lot more in the mornings (Getting coffee, letting the dog out, letting the dog in) so being able to switch tasks instantly is nice.

A lot of people will tell you to buy a padded mat to stand on. I personally don't use one (update in 2020: I sure as hell do now. Recommended). Just socks on a hard floor. This is a user preference thing. You can extend your standing time with a mat, but if you give yourself some time, your feet will adjust (Update in 2020: Yes, your feet will, but your spine won't! Save yourself! Buy a mat!). If you are the type of person who wears super supportive shoes, you'll want a mat.

As soon as I start to feel fatigued, I lower the desk and sit for a while. This is generally during the mid segments of the day when I'm really focused on a task. I may put the desk up a few more times during the day, especially if I'm making calls. Generally, near the end of the work day I'm standing. I know that a whole lot of sitting is coming for the end of the day, so might as well be on my feet.

Tips for standing desk use:
-Don't torture yourself! Stand until you don't want to. Then sit. That's the whole point! I read about a lot of people talking about agonising pain from standing all day. Don't be an idiot. Your tolerance for standing will increase without the need to cause bodily harm.
-Don't just stand still. Standing still is just as bad as sitting all day. Shift your weight, step to the window. Take advantage of the fact that it is much easier to move around when you're already standing.
-Buy cord management stuff with this desk. With the desk in standing mode, you'll have a lot of cords to contend with.
-Don't read too much into the research. Half of it says sitting all day is killing you. The other half says standing desks will kill you. What do they expect, for us to just hover? Try elevating your mouse and keyboard on a box, and working like that for a bit. Not dead yet? Kinda like it? Buy this desk.
