HORRIBLE HORRIBLE INSTRUCTIONS. Nice item and best to have help with lifting to turn over.

The desk came well packaged. When FedEx arrived, I expected a larger flat box, but what arrived was a reasonable smallish rectangle box. Great packing, thick corrugated separators with adhered foam blocks to protect the surfaces of the parts. The instructions were graphically well detailed, though the written instructions were lacking. Several bolts were provided and listed in the instructions and the images made it clear as to where they were to be used. The need for some assembly comfort comes in when you are fitting the hexagon drive shaft and crank handle. The instructions don't detail when to install the handle or the drive shaft. Once you have followed along and completed building the leg assemblies, establishing the width for the work surface will be needed. Knowing that the desk is designed to work with varying sized work surfaces, In my case, I was adding this to an existing Ikea desk surface. IF you are install this on a desk that is wider then say 43in you will notice the drive shaft is to short to reach each leg assembly. The drive shaft and crank handle both have tiny Allen screws in the shaft that are locking the hexagon shaft into a cylinder. The screws in that cylinder will need to be loosened in order to extend the shaft to the desired length of your work surface. The same actions will be needed to extend the crank handle shaft into the raise/lower mechanism and sets the depth of the handle. Once adjusted you will want to lock them back down again. As for tools, like most assembly required units, the Allen tools were provided but not of the best quality. The larger Allen wrench was bent, and the tiny one provided for the tightening and loosening of the drive shaft actually was just small enough to not fit the hex hole in the bolt and would skip as if stripped when trying the loosen the bolts. I happen to have a mad ton of Allen wrenches and was able to use one of my own. All in all, the build time was quick, and I feel that I got a hell of a deal when comparing it to what some people pay for a Sit/Stand desk. Hacking an existing desk and converting it saved a chunk of money on buying a separate work surface or buying a Sit/Stand desk with an included surface.

Very sturdy desk. I put this together with ease with some of the steps from another reviewer here. Thick, solid, tight steel.

I purchased two of these desks from Titan on amazon to use in my home office. I'm happy with my purchase and think they are great desks for the price. No fancy bells and whistles but they will get the job done and I have no concerns about them lasting for years to come. My biggest complaint were the HORRIBLE instructions. Lots of reading between the lines required. I've included my tips and observations for putting these together below. Pros -This desk is very sturdily built. Like others have mentioned, the steel is solid and feels very well made. It has one of the highest weight capacities (175 lbs) for a manual crank in this price range that I found. -The price is great, $176 for the silver/grey desk with free shipping (prime got it to me in one day) -The action to raise/lower the desk is smooth, and that system seems like it should last, not to many moving parts to break. This is why I preferred a manual crank over an electric motor for longevity. Cons -The majority of the cons are related to the awful instructions. They require lots of reading between the lines -One screw that was critical for construction of the desk arrived with the middle filled in with metal, so there was no way to use it. I'm waiting on a replacement screw now, titan says 10 days for it to arrive.... -The bracket on the hex bar was not included with my desks. Tips with instructions: -Parts provided: Part 14, the M6*12 screws (listed as 8) only come with 6 plus two wood screws that are not referenced anywhere in the process. None of these are not needed, ignore these. Part 13, the M3*8 screw, there will be two of these, even though only one is listed. There will also be two that appear to be half the length of the M3*8. These are not referenced anywhere in the instructions, but they are important. -Step 1: No major issues here, just widen the 'long tube' to the width you want the base to be. -Step 2: The instructions show the M8*10 screws being installed from the back side of the long tube, I would suggest installing them from the front so that you don't have to worry about loosing them inside the tube. I would also suggest laying the legs flat on the floor instead of straight up in the air. -Step 3: Here is where stuff gets confusing. There are three holes on the bottom of the 'side frame' part, ignore the hole on the far side of the frame. The 'level beam' piece will require one of the small Allen wrenches to loosen the black two screws so that it can extend the tube into the leg. Do this after you have the 'side frame' attached. The bracket for the level beam can be removed and placed on either the left or right leg. -Step 4: No major issues -Step 5: You will need to loosen the set screws with one of the allen wrenches and slide the hex bar to fit whatever length of the table you need. The ends of the hex bar will need to go into both the right and left leg. BE VERY CAREFUL ADJUSTING THE SET SCREWS. They are easy to strip, this is why they provided extras. Don't let any of this scare you away, these seem like great desks. Hopefully this will make the install easier and less frustrating than it was for me. I can try and answer any questions you might have.

First of this is definitely a HEAVY DUTY desk frame made by a gym equipment manufacturer. The steel is thick and the welds are strong, I could throw most of the parts off a cliff all week and they would still fit together fine. That being said it's far from "beautiful" and there are better looking desk frames out there, but not for this price. Fast shipping, quality packaging. Negatives: The handle in the pictured frame above is a lovely chrome plated single piece steel crank that fits the look of the frame nicely. The handle I received is a lightweight plastic handle that has a folding mechanism built in. I'm sure it will work fine but it is not what the picture showed. Additionally several of the bolt holes had so many metal burrs on the threads in them that I nearly stripped several bolts and had to grab my tapping set to clean the threads. Things fit together fine after the touchup but it was an extra step. Overall it is a quality product at a good price that has been let down by a few issues tarnishing a

It works pretty well, and definitely the cheapest solution for building a sit/stand desk. It is not perfect though; I have had 2 issues. First is the set screw to hold the folding handle/crank assembly stripped out trying to tighten it enough to keep the handle from sliding out when trying to swing it down. My solution was just to remove the handle if I want it out of the way. This led to the 2nd issue: without the counterweight of the handle if i have it up in a standing position and I bump the desk, sometimes it starts lowering on its own. Once it starts you have to stop it by taking most of the weight off the frame. I will admit this issue is likely because I am running close to the weight limit. I have probably around 230-250 lbs on the frame (including desk top).
