What it is for

The smallest desk in the catalogue and the only one finished in light walnut. At 25.59 by 15.75 inches it is sized for a laptop and a notebook, not for a workstation, and that is deliberate: it is meant to stand beside a sofa or in a corner, be raised for an hour of standing work, and be rolled away afterwards. The wood-effect top keeps it looking like a side table when it is idle.

Check before you order. The load rating here is 22 lbs, far below every other desk in this range. That covers a laptop, a lamp and a drink, and it does not cover a monitor or a desktop computer.

What assembly actually means

The quickest build here, and the one that most benefits from checking the height mechanism before the desk is loaded. Run it up and down its full range empty, confirm it holds position, then use it. The mechanism is sized for a laptop, so it is worth knowing how it behaves before putting one on it.

What it changes

A footprint under 26 inches wide fits in places a real desk does not, including beside an armchair and at the end of a kitchen counter.
The light walnut top is the only warm finish among the mobile items, which is what lets this one stay out in a living room.
Full height travel to 46.1 inches means it genuinely stands, so an hour of standing work does not require moving to a different room.

Figures as published for this model. Anything that has never been published is left out rather than estimated.

Where this one sits among the 6

The same figures as every other page in this section, lined up against the section itself. Being the biggest at something is not the same as being the best at it, so the last column says where a number puts this model and leaves the judgement to you.

Figure	This model	All 6 items	Where that puts it
Top width	25.59 in	25.59 to 31.5 in	The narrowest of the 3
Load rating	22 lb	22 to 176 lb	The lightest-duty of the 3
Highest height	46.1 in	46.1 to 46.5 in	The lowest of the 5

Ranges cover only the items that publish the figure at all; a model that has never published one is left out of that row rather than counted as a zero.

Where it sits in the range

Of the 6 items in this section this is the most expensive, against $28.99 at the bottom of the section.

There is no figure here on which it beats everything cheaper in the section, so if none of the 5 below it is missing something you need, the difference is colour, top size or finish rather than capability.

It carries 69 customer reviews at 4.2 out of five, which is the lowest rating in the section. Those numbers come from the retail listing and are reproduced rather than curated, including when they are unflattering.
