Standing offices were one of the start-ups (set of words) for the last 12 months because of the pandemic. Remote work meant that millions should rethink their work routine, which meant having a decent work area with an office and a chair.
Although many have ended up on kitchen and kitchen tables for a moment, nothing can beat a real office, especially the one that can be adjusted vertically, with a large healing room and the type of finish that puts it the Head and shoulders superior to general use, utility tables.
Enter a series of products, including the one we examine today, the Flexispot E7B height-adjustable control desk, which combines an office frame with – in our case – a work plan of 160 x 80 mm.

Design
A word of advice / warning: Make sure you have enough space before tackling such a project. Set up a height adjustable standing desk is not very difficult, but this may require strong and certainly more adapted to those with a basic knowledge of DIY. You will need an electric screwdriver too.
The first thing you will notice is that the table is Sanodek brand; Flexispot confirmed that it is one of its sub-brands. Our model has come with an advanced control panel that can control the height of the work plan at the millimeter. It has four programmable presets with a height memory. Long press the height memory to engage the child lock function (a tiny blue light will also turn on).
There is also a customizable reminder to get up (up to 99 minutes). The worktop is about 25 mm thick, which means that at its lowest, its upper surface will be about 605 mm high and at its highlight of 1255 mm, thanks to three legs. floors.
Used
Put the table together is quite simple. You get three boxes containing the different parts and the six steps to assemble them are spread over three pages only. There are a few pages dedicated to the control panel and troubleshooting.
Some of the instructions may well be clearer (for example for the deflector) and the steps involving more important frames. Similarly, the desk panels we have given did not have all the pre-drilled holes expected and there were no suitable labels on the support beam to indicate the corresponding desktop sizes. You can adjust it to 190cm, which would allow working sizes of at least 210 cm.
We do not recommend putting the office on the floor, as getting the desk in a vertical position will reveal a Herculean company because the assembled office weighs more than 50 kg. Instead, we built the frame, place it in the correct position – feet on the floor – and added the work plan on top.
