MacRumors Giveaway: Win an Adjustable Standing Desk From Flexispot

Update: Due to the unexpected success of the Theodore Standing Desk, Flexispot has sold out until September. As a result, the giveaway prize has shifted to the Esben Standing Desk, which a lucky MacRumors reader will receive.

The Esben works just like the Theodore as an adjustable standing desk, but it does have a more modern design aesthetic with two drawers for more storage space. The Esben also has a compact design that works well in any home office situation, measuring in at 48 inches long, 24 inches wide, and 5.1 inches deep. It too has built-in USB ports, including two USB-A ports and a USB-C port, along with easy adjustment controls for raising or lowering the height at a 29.5 to 49.2 inch range.


For this week's giveaway, we've teamed up with Flexispot to offer MacRumors readers a chance to win a Theodore Standing Desk, which is an ideal flexible workspace for Apple device users.

The Theodore Standing Desk has a classic, elegant design but it is able to meet modern workspace needs with an adjustable height that ranges from 29.5 inches to 49.2 inches. There are controls on the front of the desk for quick adjustments to meet your needs throughout the day, and the motion is handled by a powerful motor built into the desktop.

Made with a solid wood design and a walnut veneer, the Theodore has a timeless design that's ideal for a home office space. At the right side of the desk, there are convenient built-in USB ports, including two USB-A ports and a USB-C port that support fast charging at 18W so you can power your iOS devices right from the desk itself. In the center, there's a pull-out drawer able to hold accessories, and it is sized generously at 21.8 inches wide, 11 inches long, and 2.6 inches deep.

Flexispot designed the Theodore with a quick three-step assembly process that involves installing the tabletop, the desk feet, and connecting the power cords, a process that takes mere minutes after it arrives.


Priced at $499, the Theodore Standing Desk measures in at 47.6 inches long and 23.6 inches wide, with a desk depth of 4.5 inches. The size makes it ideal for small working spaces. The Theodore Standing Desk can hold up to 99lbs, so it will hold your Mac and a couple of displays and other items.

Ugh, that desk is horrendous. I mean, nice that it's a giveaway, but in terms of design the legs are from the ’80s, and the fake-wood looking top is from whichever period had no style. I'm sure it it'll look great in somebody's home, next to the faux marble pillars and animal heads on the wall.

That looks so... well... American! It should be given to the first person who finds a European under the age of 70 who likes that design.
