    Hey Josh! Thanks for this great review. After a year of using your SHW desk, is it still working properly? I want to buy this desk, but on Amazon, I saw some reviews mentioning that the motor that elevates or lower the desk stopped working.
    Thanks in advance :)
    God bless.

      @@lest6590 no, that’s reality. If you buy disposable consumer goods don’t expect them to last long term. Maybe it will but it probably won’t. If you’re cool with spending 200-300 dollars on desks every year or two then go ahead. If you’re just looking for a good desk I suggest you pay for quality. Do it right and you only have to buy it once.

    Great detailed review...I'm on board..
    I'm in the market for a electric height adjustable desk...in doing my research for any product that I'm thinking of buying I turn to TH-cam video reviews like yours that are real. Not like thous fake reviewers that get sponsored to hyper up there product. And I don't go by the wrighton reviews because a lot are fake ..better to see honest reviews like yours that spend their own money.. thanks cheers from Canada.. Btw for me I would buy quality NOT Chinese made junk. I would go for made in .
    USA
    CANADA or
    GERMANY.

    The Smart Desk 2 is a much better value. I am sorry but what you are saving in price is not with it. Compare a 1 year warranty vs 5 or 7 years for the Smart Desk depending on which model you pick and the load handling capacity is 300lbs vs 110lbs ( and remember you need to deduct the top weight from it) which indicates how much stronger the motors are on the Smart Desk.

      So thousands of positive reviews stating sturdiness, affordable, and reliable means nothing to you? Don't get caught in the marketing these big businesses. All these desk components come from China anyways. Solid steel is solid steel and units sold on Amazon tells me the real story here. I don't even own this desk but don't turn a blind eye to a quality deal because of brand.

Make sure you have the other side at lowest point but if you don't you should be able to adjust even after you get the rod connected. I hope this helps.
