Hi! How are you? My name is DoubleU! On this channel, I make videos about photography, videography, and mental clarity.

I had this idea of starting a YouTube channel in my head for years and I finally decided to take action!

What's most important to me while making these videos is enjoying the process of making them and helping you guys and girls out with some of the questions that you might have. If there's anything that you'd like to know or if there's anything that you want to add or feel like is missing, then feel free to write me a comment in one of my videos. I don't care about subscribers, likes, etc. The only thing that I really care about is comments!

If there's anything else you'd like to know, contact me through the comment sections!

Stay Awesome!

Just wanted to say thank you for posting this video! I’m looking into buying this now. I’m not sure how much this has changed in the last five years, but I found some of these points pretty insightful. Very thoughtful and thorough review!

[aguafria]

I have the desk too and I agree with all your points. I have the same problem with it stopping and returning to a position sometimes. I guess it is the collision detection, sometimes it seems to think something is obstructing the way (but there isn't). I noticed that when I use only Bluetooth App (on my phone) to move it, it doesn't do it, so maybe its the pressure from us pushing the button itself. One thing I think about is changing the compressed cardboard desk to hardwood, because when we attach these monitor mounts, it can break the desk. You, know because if you have two monitors or a laptop mount (so, 3 attachments) it's like it is too much weight to distribute on this cardboard...

love the video mate! very informative and helpful informationsss

[premiumturkish]

Dude, I am sold! That was the most authentic review I have watched. You should definitely consider doing this Youtube thing.

[mostafaomar]

Thanks for the video! I've been using the desk for a few months now.

Regarding the issue you mentioned, I haven't faced it in the beginning, but when I started adding more and more weights to my desk (2 monitors, full sized pc case, accessories), it started happening to me on the way down. I usually lift one monitor up while bringing the desk down to fix the issue temporarily to make it go down.

I have a hunch that it may be happening to you even though your load is light, is that maybe you're pressing too hard on the controller that it simulates extra weight or an obstacle and forces the desk to stop. This may be the reason the issue happens to me on the way down only and not on the way up (and doesn't happen when using the bluetooth controller either). Great desk overall!

Hi DoubleU - nice review, thanks a lot! Can you share your thought on desk's stability, especially at a standing height? From what I am reading on the internet, this is the biggest concern for sit/stand desks, and this IKEA model is supposed to be good in the department.

[RampageOfUnicorns]

Great quality content. I love how you went straight to the point and didn’t add any repetitive fluff like some channels trying to get longer videos for ads

[stnkpalm]

For your issue with the desk going back up when you are trying to lower it, have you tried the following from the Idasen instructions: Push the controller downwards. Run the table to the bottom position and keep the pressure on the controller for min. 6 seconds after both legs have reached bottom position.

[bulgaristanec]

Does it wobble forward-backward when in stand position with all your stuff on the top? Its what I am only concerned for.

[jarrodh]

Hi, I'm based in London (UK) and have had this desk for just over a year and I still like it. Like you, I have had the issue of when moving the desk up or down it automatically stops and then starts back in the opposite direction. But I then just press the button again and it works ok. As I have been using the desk everyday since March 2019 I would still recommend it. I even purchased the matching short file cabinet to sit underneath. I have the smaller tabletop as well and to maximize the desk space I have my monitor and laptop on an arm that holds them up over the desk and wireless keyboard mouse.

That poster at 3:28, where's it from or who's the artist? Looks cool

[expatlifestyle]

Thank you for your thoughtful review. I’m doing research but I did not think of IKEA until I came across your video

[EternalBreton]

Is that brown table top surface attracting a lot of dust? Is the surface smooth and easy to wipe from dust?
I have a black table top in another Ikea table and it is just gathering dust in no time. It is also difficult to wipe the dust off since it tend to grab more to the table than a normal wooden or laminate finish, very annoying! Hoping it is just the paint on the ones I got. I have it on two Ikea black furnitures, the Hemnes and Bekant.

[Layput]

I have this desk but not the electronic one and I don't hit my knees. How tall are you? About 6'10"?

[jhykr]

Hi, thanks for the review. I have the exact same desk and am thinking of installing a monitor mount (or two), but not sure if the desk is sturdy enough as the tabletop is made of particle board with honeycomb paper filling according to Ikea’s website. Have you experienced any issue with your desk and monitor mount?

[GiUsMiTo]

Is the monitor arm stable? Did it sink in? Thanks!

[Midnattsblå]

What's the length between the frame and the edge of the table?
I'd like to know if my knees would hit the bar.

[ozzyr]

Nice set up.Can you tell me what is the leg width ?

[radosawgabrys]

Hi doubleu, i think i found main reason of this weird regulation problem. There is a cover for panel control and i think it works worse due to clearance beetwen cover and switch. I installed only panel control without this cover to my desk and works fine. Don't you feel like you make not enough pressure on switch when it happen or something does skid inside?

[Tjj]

can you change the legs of the desk like put on the adils with the table top don't want the current legs on it
