This is what met desk, in slightly cleaner times, looks like
right now.
First a review of the Ikea SKARSTA Sit/Stand Desk and then a
detailed assembly.
As a desk it works great. Despite have two monitors and a
lamp all weighted to one side of it there is little or no tilt even when
lifting the desk to max height. The surface seems fine, if not particularly to
my style. And, having bought the larger of the desk surfaces for this there is
quite a lot of real estate. The metal frame is solid and works great.
My only complaint about the desk is that when cranking it
up, it makes an awful racket. My wife’s is much quieter, but still noisy as you
get toward the top of its extension.
