BEKANT corner desk left sit/stand (S592.224.81)

+1 for the large IKEA standing desk. Had mine for 5 years now and it's going strong.

I bought an IKEA Bekant during Covid and it's been perfectly fine. Large desk space, was easy to build, it's sturdy. Cost 450 though, not 150. My wife bought a much cheaper one from Ebay, mainly because it was the only one small enough to fit the space she wanted to use. Feels a bit too flimsy for my liking but, it's a desk, it works fine

I bought an Ikea Bekant electric standing desk a few years back before they were replaced with newer models. Pretty sure I paid somewhere around 400-450$ CDN for it new, I loved how easy it was to build and use, and ended up swapping the original control module out for a [Megadesk](https://github.com/gcormier/megadesk) control module to add memory to it. The original controls were just up or down, but for ~50$ CDN I could also have memory options and calibration control! I also added locking caster wheels to it, as I was needing to move it around, and also being pretty tall the extra 2" of height was welcome. Even with that, it's a solid desk for the money, there is probably better competition out there now. I don't find it very wobbly all things considered. I have a walking oad setup under my desk where my PC is, and both my wife and I use it. Having an adjustable desk makes it so much more enjoyable to walk and use the PC at the same time. If I were in the market, I'd be looking at FB marketplace personally, I usually luck out after a few days there

I'm using the same IKEA Bekant that I bought in 2015 and like it, but who knows if it is still manufactured the same way.

I've been happily using the same Ikea Bekant since 2015. I'm not sure you're expecting?

Have had a Bekant since 2015. Still going strong. Perhaps a tiny bit of wobble when standing but totally fine to lean on. Sitting down as well. I have mine all the way down at that point though, not really sure if much wobble otherwise. Definitely worth the money.

The Ikea Bekant is garbage don't do it. Motor failed after 13 months and it wobbled like crazy even when new. Switched to a FlexiSpot E5 and the difference is night and day. Sometimes saving money costs you more in the long run. Stick with FlexiSpot E7 or Uplift if you want something reliable.

I can't speak about their other, newer ones they sell, but the Bekant is known to be one of the most wobbly standing desk around, and the Idasen is known to be one of the most stable. I've messed with both in person and can confirm the Bekant sucks and the Idasen is very stable both sitting and standing.
