I did it. My office space finally got a glow-up—and trust me, it was long overdue. I said my goodbyes to my IKEA desk (hey, we had some good times), and upgraded to an Oakywood setup. What does that mean? I’ve opted for a clean desk, and a clear mind—and gifted myself the best chances at productivity.
Yep, I’ve feng shui’d my desk into a wooden wonderland—switched from trendy to timeless. I’ve made the trade from mass production to fine craftsmanship, and my workspace (and work day) is reaping the benefits. Bye-bye careless consumerism, hello wise investment.
Don’t underestimate the power of your deskspace: it has the potential to help us unlock our own. After all, tidy space = uncluttered thoughts. 😌
So, I’ve carved out a chic home office, complete with two Oakywood Standing Desks, two Desk Shelves, and small wooden accessories that strike gold in both functionality and aesthetics. You can check my hands-on Oakywood desk shelf review if you’re interested in this valuable add-on.
If you haven’t had the pleasure of listening to me wax lyrical about the home office essentials, let me indulge you. Relax though, I won’t go into the details of the benefits of standing desks, I’ll leave that to the medical professionals, psychologists, and my fellow tech enthusiasts.
Instead, this review will unpack the Oakywood Standing Desk specifically, and how it stands out for all the right reasons.
Pros:
- Made from high-quality, natural, sustainable materials
- Fully customizable with various finishes, dimensions, and features
- Impeccable craftsmanship elevates any room
- Adjusts to different standing and sitting heights
Cons:
- You have to buy the under-desk organizer separately
- The height adjustment controller isn’t as premium as the rest of the desk
Verdict:
The Oakywood desk is more than just a standing desk, it’s an outstanding desk. Functionally, the dimensions are fully customizable. You can also save four height presets for single press access. Environmentally, it’s made from natural wood and responsible materials and supports eco-positive initiatives. And aesthetically—well, let’s just say, both Marie Kondo and Shea McGee would approve of the warm minimalist design.
Why you can trust Luxe Digital? We entirely redesigned our WFH office for this article by ordering two Oakywood Standing Desks, together with Oakywood desk shelves and a couple of small accessories like trays and coasters. I’m writing this review at my Oakywood standing desk right now—if this isn’t first hand experience, I don’t know what is.
I’ve been geeking out about Oakywood desks for so long before writing this review that I’ve become an expert when it comes to their materials, design, and customizable options too.
