Electric Single Motor Desk Frame with Touch Screen Memory Controller

This desk was an affordable option when I bought it in June 2020. I used it for about a year without issue. After a year... it started doing this weird thing where it would start going up to a preset position and then - STOP - like had slammed into an invisible wall. Then it would reverse a few notches and stop. This went on for about 6 months, getting progressively worse over time.After 18 months, it had gotten so bad, that I took apart my motor. The attached pictures are what I found. A plastic gear that had been chewed up badly by a metal pinion. Ouch. At this point, I'm assuming that the desk is shot, after less than 2 years. I started researching new standing desk options.BUT WAIT. THE STORY DOESN'T END HERE!I contacted Vivo support at vivo-us.com. I chatted with a representative on 5:30 PM on a Friday evening. I sent him the pictures above. I sent him my SKU. I sent him my order number. Keep in mind, this was an AMAZON order, not a direct order from Vivo. Within 15 minutes, I was informed that a new motor would be sent to my home, and would ship out on Monday.So... is my mind blown by the product? Not really. It's okay for the price, but obviously there is a design flaw in that motor. I think they may have updated it in new versions, based on my conversation with the Vivo rep.Is my mind blow by their customer service? Yep. Absolutely. Vivo has a 3 year warranty on all their products, whether purchased directly or through Amazon. And they honor it. Quickly. I have purchased many vivo products, and I will continue to buy from them going forward.

I bought this frame, and put a butcherblock countertop that I got from Home Depot on it. I got it a little over 2 years ago, and I still love it. I've recommended it to a few friends, and they enjoy theirs as well.It's not perfect though.When in a standing position, movements on the desk can cause my monitors to shake slightly, but it's really not that noticeable to me.I have my fairly heavy computer sitting on top of the desk. Because it's not the dual motor version, I've gotten in a habit of slightly lifting the desk top up when I start to put it in the standing position. Sometimes if I don't do this, the controller will show an error code, won't lift the desk, and won't go away until I unplug and replug the desk back into the power outlet. At first this was disappointing, but I literally just give it a little bit of help at the very beginning of the lift, and then it raises on its own. Not a deal breaker for me.Depending on the desk top you install on this, it can be a pretty tall desk at the lowest position. My butcherblock countertop is 1.5" thick, making the lowest position 32" from the ground. I have to raise my office chair to the highest position and use a foot rest in order to have decent desk ergonomics.Aside from the desk, I recommend getting an anti-fatigue mat so that your feet don't hurt while using this in the standing position. With the mat, I sometimes will keep the desk in the standing position for multiple days in a row.For the price and features, I highly recommend this desk. A standing desk has really been a game changer for me and my back issues.

I had a basic Ikea counter top that was using basic Ikea legs for a work table. Remove the legs and attach this thing! It's awesome. I like that I can sit and work, and then stand for a while and work, and then sit and work again. It has three memory settings. I will note that the lowest it goes might be a little high for some people. I am 6'3" so it's good for me.The stand came in a well packaged box. The directions were straight forward. It took me an hour or so to put it all together. It didn't need any super special tools or anything like that. It works great. I really could not be happier with this product.

Overall I'm very happy with the electric desk...sturdy, smooth operations and looks great. However I think most "normal" folks will find it takes a couple of hours to assemble. I think the directions are mediocre at best, as the pictures they don't provide enough good visual queues on assembling (front, back, motor position, etc.). Between the instructions and the online video I was able to figure things out. I did buy the vivo under-desk keyboard tray which I highly recommend as it makes for a much more ergonomically friendly setup (especially for people who do a lot of typing). As you can see my cabling management is a bit lacking. I also bought an "underdesk cable management tray) which will clean things up considerably - I intend to mount on back & under of desk.
