Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The quality of materials and overall sturdiness makes it the best desk i've ever owned. Even with just one lever holding one leg (there are 2 on each leg) it seems to be holding up just fine. Both are beautiful and very sturdy.

The desktop is a single piece and has slight texture to it that doesn't interfere with writing on paper but is excellent for using a mouse/tracking device and tactile-ly satisfying-! Overall very sturdy workspace, looks good and easily accommodates my...  Read More

The package comes with a cable mgmt tray so don't buy an extra one. The wire management tray works great and the cable routing ports on the top help quite a bit. The optional cable management cradle really helps keep everything looking clean.

The mechanics of the raising and lowering works well. It's very comfortable in both the sitting and standing position. Perfect for gaming if you want to stand while gaming.



Cons

When you press the controls up or down, it just makes a humming noise and doesn't go anywhere. There is no wiring tray for all of the motor cables and power cable. The memory controller looks like it you have a cathode-ray tube tv.

Apex needs to improve their quality control before shipping these desks out. The packaging part is good, but beware, its only good to the point its recipient. They want to * $130 return shipping fee even though the description was faulty.

Obviously, this defeats the entire purpose of the desk. It is very outdated compared to any other brand. Avoid the elite model.

The desktop is compressed board, but extremely heavy. The finish is a matte laminate which will not show scratches like a glossy top. The surface has minor bumps and isnt completely smooth.

Quality


Solid build and large enough for the 4 monitors i need in order to work.


The desk is sturdy and well-constructed, providing me with the confidence that it will last for years to come.


The motors are strong; i’ve had no issue at all getting the desk up and down even with a duel monitor setup with heave speakers.


Went to move it and accidentally broke the controller on it 3 years after buying it.

Price


Overall its a great desk for the price!


That's a pretty bs response in my opinion considering the cost of the desk.


I have no fault for this table except that it is pretty expensive.


I believe the interface to the electronic panel could have been a little more modern for the money spent.

Shipping


It arrived ahead of schedule, well wrapped, no damage.


They were shipped the replacement as soon as they were able to and came in great shape.


Emailed customer support asking how to fix it and got a response within about an hour saying they'd be sending a new cable for ...  Read More


Great customer service, they contacted me to let me know it had shipped.

Packaging/appearance


Came in 2 boxes and easy to put together about 40 minutes.


Desk is good quality and came well packaged.


I opened the box and immediately noticed a dent on the front side of desktop.


I'm glad it came in three boxes via fedex because there would have been no way to get it up a flight of stairs if the entire th...  Read More

Competitiveness


I would highly recommend this desk as an economical alternative to a commercial option.


I would compare this desk to uplift brand as far as quality goes, but this is half the price, just less options.


The controllers on the two models are different: the elite feels a little more advance.

    To try and resolve this issue i had to design an attachment that would square up the edge of the desk and i 3d printed them so i could attach all my hardware to my desk


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    If the desktop had a square edge rather than a chamfer edge i would give it 55 stars

    Recently during a move during disassembly a careless coworker knocked over a motor leg severing the cable as it fell they are quite heavy


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
