IKEA IDÅSEN Sit Stand Desk Impressions | Creative Review

The IDÅSEN desk is Ikea's most premium Sit/Stand desk. In this video, I'm taking a look at different aspects of the desk such as functionality, quality, and looks. You'll find out if it's worth buying. I got the (largest) 160-cm by 80-cm. I love the size.

After using a HUGE dining table as a desk for years, I'm really happy to upgrade it to a standing desk! I'm working on a video about my ultimate desk. Let me know in the comments what you would like to know!

What do you think about a standing desk? Do you like to stand up while working?

One thing to keep in mind when you use another tabletop. The Idasen tabletop is light so you have enough wheight to put on it before you exceed the 75kg limit for the motor. If you use a solid tabletop it can add wheigt. For example I used a solid plastic table of 50kg... together with the attributes on the table it was too heavy for the motors.

One the most useful reviews explaining the actual features and demention . Thank you!

I would recommend adding an extra strong plate plus cushion (can be plastic) under the monitor arm fasteners and optionally also above if they are too small, especially for heavier monitors, and especially if you don't want the fasteners to dig into your tabletop with time.

thanks so much man! I've been looking for a good electric sit/stand desk for ages but never knew which one to go for. I think this one is the best one because it has the linak systems which is super high quality, 10 year warranty, very sturdy and decent design. AND IS ONLY £500. Bargain for something this good. Now I will buy it. Thanks for making my decision easier

Thank you. I just want to buy one. It is out of stock at the moment near me. I will wait to buy this. Very clear introduction. Very helpful.

Great review I have the same, bigger size (160cm x 80cm) which fits my 38" LG Curve monitor and another Dell 27" in Portrait mode (no monitor arms). I will see if I can use the Vivo under desk computer mount to fit in my Mini PC tower which will make it look a lot neater. For those who can't decide on colour top I would highly recommend NOT choosing the black one, it's just way too dark especially in a dimmish room. Overall very solidly build unit with clean design.

Opening the box as the hardest part of the whole process

I checked at the store, and since a few month IKEA happens to have a desk that's even beter: the MITTZON. A big disadvantage about this desk is the fact that is doesn't have a memorized button with a pre-set hight. The app is a nice-to-have function that I won't probably use and even the app doesn't seem to solve this issue. The problem today is that the black MITTZON has logistics problems until october, but I guess it's worth to wait!

Wow I'm a bit blown away by the professional video :D I did one myself about Ikea's Rodulf desk and this just blows me out of the water :D Damn, I have much to learn still ^^ The only thing that I find a bit odd is seeing you speak in the big studio Mic. It's obviously great for voice overs, but I would suggest a hidden mic like people on TV clip on. That way you can use it for the unboxing as well because the sounds was pretty crappy here compared to the rest of the video. But all in all.. WOW

I had the regular version of this desk, and it is super stable. It's the underframe IMO, as the stabilizing beam runs right across the tabletop, instead of running across the corners. I'm typing on a cheaper Ikea desk now, and the monitor shake when I type is very irritating!

[altctrlscream]

Thanks for the video. I got this desk during Covid. Not looked back. So expensive though!

[xander]

I would have seen a "wobble test". The greatest weakness of standing desks. Also, your height for reference to our own height xD

[shobhitpuri]

Thanks for the video! Now that you've used it for more than a year, do you think is the Board strong enough to have a Monitor mount for a long time?

[JairoNamnun]

Great review! Going to go buy mine tomorrow :-)

[jsmjanssens]

Nice video :D I didn't even know the desk existed :D You now have an extra subscriber!

[martymcintosh]

the tabletop is a nice color but its still dark enough to easily show dust. wish they had a lighter color option to "hide" the dust more

[treeladder]

Bit expensive for fake wood no? Is there any like this that's solid wood? How do I know which solid wood matches the legs? Will they have pre drilled holes?
