Frequently asked questions
What height range does the IKEA IDÅSEN cover?
The desktop travels from 63 to 127 cm, a range of 64 cm. Two motors share the lift, with no memory presets, so the height is set by button every time you switch position. The range is wide enough to suit both short and tall users.
How much weight does the IKEA IDÅSEN hold?
The desktop is rated for 70 kg. That is enough for a dual monitor setup and a laptop with room to spare. On a motorized desk that figure covers everything left on top during each rise and fall. The weight of monitor arms and stands counts towards that total.
How big is the IKEA IDÅSEN desktop?
The desktop measures 160 by 80 cm. That is a large format, two 27 inch monitors fit side by side with room to spare. The 80 cm of depth let you push the monitor back to a comfortable viewing distance. Cable management is included to keep the cords under the top.
Is the IKEA IDÅSEN worth 550 euros?
At 550 euros it scores 4.4/5 across 2,100 Amazon reviews. The score sits in the healthy middle of the comparison. We gave it our Scandinavian design label in the selection. Main strength: dual motor for fast height adjustment. Main compromise: no height memory presets.
