A full-time desk for a shorter user
Nothing is sold on this site. Every buying link opens the same item at the retail partner who handles payment, delivery and returns.
Standing desks solve standing posture and leave seated posture alone. A tray is the fix for the seated half, and on a 47.2 by 23.6 inch top there is enough width for it to run full length without interfering with anything else on the desk. This is the middle size in the tray group and the sensible default for someone who spends the working day at a keyboard.
Underside first, as with every tray model: runners, then frame, then upright. The 48 inch top is light enough for one person to turn over on a carpeted floor, which makes this the easiest of the tray desks to build alone.

Figures as published for this model. Anything that has never been published is left out rather than estimated.
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 11 desks | Where that puts it |
|---|---|---|---|
| Top width | 47.2 in | 40 to 55.11 in | Wider than 3 of the other 10 |
| Top depth | 23.6 in | 23.6 to 28 in | The shallowest of the 11 |
| Lowest height | 28.35 in | 28.3 to 28.35 in | The lowest of the 11 |
Ranges cover only the desks 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.
Of the 11 desks in this section this is the sixth cheapest: 5 cost less, 5 cost more, and the section runs from $129.99 to $169.99. It carries a published list price of $159.99, so the figure above is below that rather than the usual asking price.
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 1,024 customer reviews at 4.4 out of five, with 6 of the other 10 rated higher. Those numbers come from the retail listing and are reproduced rather than curated, including when they are unflattering.
The product description exactly as it ships with the listing, unedited, so everything written above can be checked against it.

The smallest desk with drawers, 40 by 24 inches in white, for a working corner that is not a room.
The default desk with drawers: 48 by 24 inches, black, storage that rises with the top.
The 48 by 24 inch drawer desk in white, which is the version that disappears into a pale room.
