Heyho,

I am from Germany and currently moving into a new apartment. I am going to throw out my old desk as it is too low and want to upgrade to a height adjustable one.

While IKEA has some options I wonder whether others have recommendations for solid brands to check out.

Looks very good - also price wise. I had to look into using melanine instead of real wood, but sounds like that is not a big disadvantage. I love the confident 7 year warranty.

Do you have the PC on top?

Full disclosure, Gemini claims that the frame is actually a rebranded desk frame from a major Chinese OEM called LUMI (Lumi Legend Corporation), but I did not investigate further on that.

As for the plate, you can also get just the frame from Ergolutions and go to your local Baumarkt for a suitable piece of wood for the plate.

I do have my computer on top, but like mentioned, it is just a laptop. Anyway, i believe weight wise there is still heaps of margin and a full tower would not nearly make it sweat.
