The [Desky Quad](https://desky.com/products/desky-quad-sit-stand-desk-frame?variant=43643319812418) frame is really deep (34") and can accommodate the width and depth of your top. [Deskhaus Apex Pro](https://desk.haus/products/apex-pro-2?variant=39436449087637) has different sized feet that can accommodate different depth desks with a 39.5" foot for desks with a depth of 40-48". The top portion of the desk frame is not as deep as the Desky Quad but it should be enough. The [Flexispot E7Q](https://www.flexispot.com/flexispot-odin-4-leg-standing-desk) and [Uplift 4 leg](https://www.upliftdesk.com/uplift-v2-4-leg-standing-desk-frame/) frames have similar depths at around 28" and might be some usable options.

I think the Desky would be worth it over the one on Wayfair. The Wayfair one's desktop is in three pieces, so you will have two joints down the depth of the desk. Warranty is a good indicator of the company's faith in their product, so I would go with the longer warranty. Their site doesn't show that the 10 year warranty is something you would purchase like an extended warranty, so it should come with your purchase of the desk. I have a Deskhaus desk that I am very happy with and have used an Uplift desk that was also great. I believe Desky's desk is also manufactured by the same company, Jiecang, except the Deskhaus Apex is manufactured in their US factory. Uplift would be a good one stop shop for you. They just came out with their v3 but I don't know how it compares to their v2. Deskhaus has their Peak series that is comparable to the Uplift v2, but I don't know if you are willing to wait for it to come back to stock. The Deskhaus Apex is a great desk and I love it, but I don't see it's worth anymore compared to the Peak unless you really want something American made.

I’d skip Flexispot if you’re planning to game a lot on it. They look good for the price but once you throw on dual monitors and everything else, the wobble gets annoying. My cousin grabbed one of the Desky gaming desks not long ago and it’s been way sturdier than the cheaper frames he tried before. Setup took him about half an hour, and he hasn’t had to touch it since. The desktop’s roomy enough for his full pad, keyboard, and two monitors, and what’s great about it is that it has that textured feel that mimics a mouse pad, so you probably won’t even need one if you game on it. Another thing about it is that it just has that gamey feel, kind of like what you see with gaming computers too.

If I were in your shoes, I’d probably not build the whole thing from scratch. Just get an electric frame and throw on a butcher block top from Home Depot or a poplar workbench slab. Those hold up well and look clean after a quick sand and seal. For frame recommendations, I’d go with [Desky’s frames](https://desky.com/collections/sit-stand-desk-frames). They’re built heavy and pair well with any wood top if you don’t want to mess with stability issues. Go for that setup first and tweak the finish later.

I’ve had zero issues with the Desky standing desks themselves. The only negative I experienced was their power/cable management tray. Could never get it to install correctly, likely a manufacture defect. Their four leg desk is on carpet with wheels and my 100 pound dog just bounces off of it. He throws solid dog toys around and when that hits the table it’ll make a loud bang. The two leg desk on tile is also resilient with a power wheelchair user bumping into it occasionally. That wheelchair is over 500 pounds without user weight considered. I think it just depends on what you’re doing on the table and your toleration on position/activity.

I recently setup a Desky Quad Leg. Feels really stable. Was easy to assemble.

I've been using a quad leg Desky with a custom 100x36" top. Works great. Think the heavy weight of the top actually makes it more stable.

I'm using a Desky Quad Leg. Been working great. I only did the frame and had some local make a 100x36 top. Have three ultrawides, a computer, and 3 speakers on it, no issues.

\- Desky Here, Both Desks are stable and have minimal wobble, Both Desks are Good quality with reasonable warranty periods. Either Desk would be good for your needs. Where Desky has an edge i believe, is two fold. The Variety of Desktops that we offer and the quality of them. We have a huge range to choose from, but if you aren't particular and just want a plain white melamine desktop, we can do that. Our Melamine range is strong and hard wearing, and solid core, so not flimsy like you may find with other suppliers The other advantage i believe we have is our cable management system. Its clean, and does its job amazingly well at hiding cables out of the way and being accessible when you need it. If you have any questions, please feel free to DM me, we can also get you a discount code for your first purchase of a sit stand desk \- Team Desky

Desky and Autonomous are much higher quality than Uplift. I am personally using a desky and it's really nice, solid. Big fan of the cable management system. Zero wobble at any height for me. it was a bit of a pain to put together
