  • Do any table tops fit or do they need to be specific brand to match?

    • Most should be fine. It's a max of 1350mm long so I wouldn't suggest a table top over 2m wide. Probably aim for 1.8m for safety. The arms are 38cm which is a bit trickier. A standard 600mm table top would likely be fine but beyond that it could be tricky. For example, if you get a 900mm table top and you're constantly leaning on the edge when using the keyboard, that could cause problems.

      • Ah thanks. Was looking at around 700mm deep so might still be alright?

        I'm new to this sit/stand thing. The missus needs a new desk as she works remotely 5 days a week.

        • +1

          700mm deep should be ok as long as you're not putting too much weight on it, and as long as the table top isn't over 50kgs. They rate it for 70kgs but in engineering that usually means 70kgs for maximum width of the stand (380mm). So minus a bit of weight threshold for a table that's wider than that.

      • +3

        60cm is a bit shallow, generally considered the minimum for comfortable computer use. Aim for 70cm to 80cm. 10cm may not sound much, but makes a noticeable difference.

      • I guess we’ll have to drill the holes on the table tops?

        • Yep (on the underside to secure the top to the brackets). You could rely on weight alone but it wouldn't be very safe.

      • I'm wondering if a 180x80cm tabletop would work.

        Need to work out where to place the 38cm arms, middle or closer to the front.

        As you said you're leaning (putting weight) on the front rather than the back, so may go 15cm front overhang, 38cm arms, 27cm rear overhang.

        • +1

          I would still go for centre. If it's off centre then it puts a constant strain on the screws and a bit on the motor as well. May not last as long.

        • +1

          Always middle! Wouldn't recommend messing with the centre of gravity on these for the reasons Gunner said + while you might lean on the front, generally desks have a lot of steady / constant weight on the the back eg monitor, mounting arms etc.

      I’m planning on just drilling holes into a Bunnings wooden bench top and call it a day. Works out cheaper than a branded desk with nicer finish.

      • +1

        Seems like a decent budget option, assuming the frame is good and stable. Nothing worse than a wobbly desk.

      • +1

        Any suggestions or links please

  • Been looking for an adjustable width desk for a while and I haven't come across any other than Desky, and those are out of budget. Thanks OP!

  • Ooo looks like a good base to make a formply desk with. Neato!

    How many motors, this is an important factor…

    • +1

      Only one. Pretty obvious by the low weight limit

    • +13

      You can always figure out the number of motors by the weight limit, which in this case is 70KG. This means single motor. Decent dual motors are usually ~150-170KG+

      Also you can usually see the singular cylinder shape in the picture with single motors, like you can in this post.(If the images show our underneath that is). Dual motors are usually more rectangular and inside the horizontal section of the frame, next to the legs.

        User name checks out!

  • Can I simply put Ikea tabletop on it?

    • +2

      Yep

    • Hey @AnKu which tabletop were you looking at?

      • I'm thinking of getting Trotten, but haven't bought it yet. :/

  • Is it easy to put timber on top?

  • Pictures on these amazon and ebay ads are always odd

    They spell the "Hight" on the controls 1 2

    Are they AI drawn

    • +1

      It's just a text on the picture. Sometimes the typo is on the actual product you receive, would be super annoying.

    • A typo like this actually signals that a human wrote it :)

  • Did the coupon just expire?

    • +2

      I just refreshed and it looks like it did on all three colours. Though it's still available on the wider Ergomaker dual motor models.

  • only 70kg hmm

      What are you planning to do on it? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

    Recently put one of these together, combined with a 1.8m bench top from Bunnings. I haven't had much of a chance to put it through its paces, but for the price I've been pleasantly surprised so far. It seems reasonably sturdy when elevated, and the single motor hasn't been an issue for my needs. It also comes with screws to attach the desktop. I did have some issues putting it together, notably it tells you to level the legs at the start, but they will likely not stay level as you put the rest of the desk together. The extendable rod that connects the legs also came jammed closed and needed some convincing from a mallet to release it, but I suspect this was just unlucky. Overall, I'm happy with it.

    • Im looking to do the same, but with an Ikea bench top.

      How did you find the process of fixing it to the frame?

      • +1

        Pretty simple. I just drilled the supplied screws straight into the desktop (I didn't pre-drill pilot holes, but you may have/prefer to). The most painful part is trying to centre the desktop.

  • This doesn't look like a sturdy frame by any means. You'll be hard stuck trying to use it standing as it'll wobble. Do yourself a favour and buy the executive from office works. Had mine since covid

    • The reviews are pretty decent and the reviews on the executive from Officeworks have been variable.

      Anyway for $135 (plus tabletop) I'll give it a go.

    i got this re-opened. 20% coupon is back on offer

    This minimum height is useless. 73cm plus 1 or 2cm for the table top. I'm 180cm and will adjust my desk between 65 and 70cm when seated

    • +1

      Depends on your chair no?

      • +1

        Your chair also needs to go low enough for you to have feet flat on the ground. So it's not relevant. Once you are in the correct seared position the distance from the floor to your elbows will not be 73cm or higher for most people.

        You can use a foot rest as a workaround but why bother.

    Thanks OP thinking of turning this into a height adjustable baby changing table, and then using as a desk when they're old enough

    • hmm, that's a smart one

  • Thanks OP, got one to convert an existing desk

  • Any suggestion for some nice wide (~1.5 meter) table tops?

  • Good price. Only issue I see is it's a single motor. Won't work well if you have a big rig. This would be good for a laptop.

    • With 70kg weight capacity, it could probably hold 4-5 big monitors, 2-3 laptops, and a few books and peripherals. I would've thought that that's enough for majority of people

      • a big pc case only can take like 10kg

        • ah, I'm a PC case on the floor guy

  • Any suggestions for a good value dual motor option?

  • How.do.you get it to 135? I am seeng it as $143 after the discount applied?
    I also tried entering NAB10 ,ot is saying that it expired

    • The grey one was $169 before the discount, it's sold out I think.
