Emuca - Adjustable table leg Ø60x870mm (Ø2,3x34,2 inch), set of 1 steel table leg, height adjustment 870-890mm (34,2-35inch), black

Nicely finished and sturdy. In case you wondered, the height adjustment is achieved by screwing the foot of each leg in or out. This gives a range of 71 to 75 cm when measured from the top fixing plate. I will be ordering a few more!

The item arrived quickly and is well made. The height adjustment is achieved by plastic bottom element that screws up and down to give the advertised 710-730mm. Could be useful for an uneven or stepped floor surface as well as for getting the correct 'desk height' if makinging a working from home desktop.The plates that attach the legs to the table top have 9 screw holes and are about 2mm thick. The screws supplied are 25mm and this was too long for the 15mm board I was attaching the legs to so I had to buy 3/4" screws from the DIY shop. I would say it is important to use all 9 screws on each plate as this kind of attachment will wiggle loose over time so do not be tempted to say - only put 4 screws in each plate. The srews went in easily with a ratchet screwdriver and no need to drill or use a bradawl. You may havae a differnet experience depending on your material. I also went around the perimeter with gorilla glue to reduce the wiggle stress on the join. Remember a good quality table or desk would use joints and/or other reinforcements to maintain stability over time.These legs are ideal for a quick and dirty solution and look ok. You might want to think carefully before attaching them to a beautiful piece of wood. A well made desk also has cross struts of various kinds to make a long lasting and stable structure. This is robust enough for a light duty worktop but I would not want to stand on it for example.I had a cheap 1.8mx0.6mx15mm plywood board with a reasonable veneer which cost me £18.00 - so a long worktop was rapidly achieved for £45 in total.

I wanted to write this review because I saw quite a few reviews suggesting these were not of good quality or with quality control issues. Here is what I can tell you about my experience. I bought 2 sets of 4 legs and all (8) were of good to great quality.Installation Tips. Keep screwing the legs, if they are wobbly then it means you haven't turned all the way. Grab a cloth to give some grip, and keep persevering, once the wobble stops, it should be perfectly straight as the leg is similar to a ball joint. If it wobbles, then it's not tight enough (you haven't reached the screw limit), it does require some elbow grease. It's a little frustrating, but the reward is a sturdy leg for very little money!

I'm using these legs to support a 1.2m long length of kitchen worktop used a desk which weighs about 20kg. I was a bit worried that they wouldn't be sturdy enough and would wobble, but they're almost as solid as having the desk attached to the wall as it was previously. Installation was quick and easy (took about 20 minutes to mark the the holes for the brackets, pilot drill them and screw the brackets in place, then screw the legs to the brackets using the included screws) and there is at most 5mm of side-to-side wobble of my desktop with it sitting on the legs.

So these are attached to a piece of old kitchen worktop just over 1m in length. And has my PC and twin monitor setup on it.They were easy to attach all the screws needed were in the box and the mounting plates to screw the legs into.Off the desk (shall call it that). The legs attach to the plate and are nice and tight but after attaching to the desk they seem looser and give a little wobble when everything is on the desk. Having screwed the legs as tight as they go it still seems to wobble. The adjustable feet make no difference if they are up or down so it has to be the way the legs attach to the plate.After further investigation I think it just may be the weight of the worktop and computer causing the issue. I may have to support the back with wood attached to the wall. Which is a shame as I wanted the option to move the desk if needed.Otherwise the legs look great and seem to be of a good build. Maybe the thread isn’t long enough and the plate attachment needs a better design as other legs I have had in the past seem more sturdy.

I wanted to extend the desk in my home office now that I'm permanantly working from home, and I found some old lengths of chipboard and broke out the power tools.I obviously needed some desk legs though. My existing desk sits 700mm to the base off of the floor, and I couldn't find legs at quite the exact size. I took a punt on these Emuca adjustable legs and hoped that I might be able to adjust them a bit futher than they advertise.Well, do they? No. The don't go below the 710mm they rightly state. However, as I didn't need them to be adjustable I found that you could unscrew the adjustable feet and was left with a leg at bang on 700mm, and the new desk sits flush with the old one. I'm very pleased with this.Quality wise, there's nothing to complain about her. The legs are solid, finished nicely and the adjustable legs (if you don't dispose of them) work well.

I used two sets of these to create an L-shaped desk from some old kitchen worktops that would otherwise have been thrown out. The mounting plates attached easily and firmly and the legs screwed in easily enough. The end result works nicely as a desk, but is just a tiny bit wobbly. Not a big deal most of the time, but it has created the occasional coffee spill, and I certainly wouldn't want to stand on the desk.Still I got a nice desk for a lot less than I'd pay for a similarly sized purpose-built desk, so overall I'm very happy.
