While it lacks some premium extras like built-in USB charging or multiple memory presets, its smooth electric adjustment, sturdy frame, and clean design make it a strong value pick for home offices and corporate environments alike.

From assembling the desk legs, attaching the desktop, setting up my monitors, to taming the cable chaos 🔌… it literally took me hours, but the final setup is so cozy and clean 😍.

This desk is perfect as a Computer table, Office table, Study table, Working table or even Dining table. The size is appropriate and the white color looks so clean and great!

the IKEA Trotten (roughly $249) is easiest to buy and return in person

Otherwise, I would say building this alone is very manageable.

Though I was glad to learn that I can replace the levelers with wheels, I wish IKEA would offer this option on their own initiative.

It's available very cheaply from the Swedish furniture retailer and normally the tabletop on this model is adjusted by hand using a crank. I quickly got tired of that. I wanted to automate the adjustment of the desk. There are various DIY projects online that have equipped this table with a motor and an Arduino or an ESP32, for example. However, that was too complicated for me. But since I have Home Assistant and Ziggb2 MQTT at home, I have worked out this simple solution here.
