Codex Bamboo Sit/Stand Desk And Office Chair reviewed

Our testers were happy to review this pair of products. The chair was an instant hit. They all liked it, they found it comfortable, ready for usage and good to go. They played around with the various settings, the leaning back, slightly slouching posture seemed a bit strange, and they wondered if they would always use the proper upright posture, even though they knew it was good for their backs. Either way the chair very quickly became part of the office, and the preferred chair to be taken by whoever got in first.

With the bamboo desk, there is a lot to like about it, so we will begin with this. Firstly it looks great. It also has a lovely feel to it as well, it is big, wide, nothing crazy, but big enough to not been feeling squeezed by your screen, keyboard and other relevant attachments you might need too. The installation team were prompt, quick and super pleasant.

The one element that caused us perhaps unnecessary problems over the following weeks, was that they did not put it to the initial preferred optimal height. There is no manual method to move the desk up and down, which, once we had exhausted the following options did seem like a bit of a drawback. The product brochure suggested that we download the app, which we did, on both Apple and Android, but this failed to shift the level up and down. It turns out you need a dongle to do this, not included, and needed to be bought additionally.

There are also installation videos, which we dutifully followed, to no avail. Or rather we managed to make it go down, but never back up. As we reflected on these attempted problem solving issues we did wish that it had just been put to the preferred height and checked at the installation phase rather than us having to chase the company afterwards. The desk and chair are great, the customer support were responsive, and the installation process was fine, but it would have just been great if the actual up and down movement had been checked as part of the installation process, as it would have then avoided all the subsequent to-ing and fro-ing. Hopefully if this bug can be sorted out then this could be a great product for your home office too.
