Desky - Single Sit Stand Desk

Hi! As a Desky enthusiast, I'm sure I can help with any concerns you may have before you make a decision on purchasing a new office set-up. We know first-hand how hard it is to choose the right desk for your needs. Our desks come backed under a limited warranty so rest assured if on arrival something is not quite right with your order, or perhaps down the track if you experience an issue with your Desky, our growing team of experts are here to assist in getting your desk up and running as soon as possible for you. Feel free to send me a message if you need any advice on choosing a Desky Desk, or feel free to drop any questions that you may have down below :) Thanks for your interest in Desky and our office products!

\- 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 here, Although the Desky Single Sit Stand Desk fits most of your requirements, i do wonder if it will be suitable for you at your sitting height. The Single has a minimum sitting height of 28.7" which may be too tall, ensure you take measurements of your comfortable sitting height before purchasing. Let me know if you have any questions, more than happy to help \- 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

I used a brand called zen space desk, it’s not the best but it was cheap! Omnidesk has good quality so does desky

Try the Desky Single Sit Stand Desk. It's around $460. It's steady even at full height, the motor’s quiet, and it has good cable management etc. My second recommendation is Flexispot E7. I have a friend who has this and it's really good. I'd still grab an anti-fatigue mat and keep your chair close. Standing all day at first gets tiring at some point so you need to switch between the two.

Just got a desky, honestly didn’t even know it was a thing till the day I ordered it. It came super lightly damaged due to fedex placement and box coming apart a smidge, they were super responsive, offered a replacement part or adjustment within an hour of me reaching out. I also love the product I got the Bambu and it is fantastic.

I have a Desky, love it.

Same! Love my Desky

My Desky is really cool, I means its sit stand so legs are built for the machine but real wood desk top is such a class. Goes with my home interior. Can use it as a bar on Weekends.

i'd go with flexispot, solid for the price. desky's decent too but tends to cost more. get whatever fits your setup better.

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.

FlexiSpot is solid for the price, but their smaller desks with drawers are pretty basic. Desky is more premium, better stability, but pricier. Branch has a clean look and good quality, but not many small options with storage. If budget and a drawer matter most, go FlexiSpot. If you want something sturdier, Branch or Desky might be better.

I love my Desky setup. I've had zero issues with build quality other than a slight sag in the cable tray. I go sit/stand at least once a day, sometimes more. I've only had it for a few weeks now, but very happy.

My wife uses the Uplift. She told me she has zero complaints about the desk. She doesn't notice wobble, she loves the fake walnut wood grain, loves the USB/plugs on the desk, the up/down is superfast, and the wires are hidden well. My 2 cents. It's a little bit more wobbly than my Desky. I was actually surprised to see that because I thought for sure the Uplift with the C-frame (T-frame on Desky) and crossbar would be more stable, but it's not. To be clear, it's not terrible by any means, and every sit/stand desk will have some wobble if you get the two leg version. The up/down is really fast, impressive, really. It's definitely faster than the Desky, but at the end of the day, does it really matter? I mean, we are talking a few seconds at most between the two. Regarding the grommet holes. Uplift has them and Desky does not. This was almost a deal breaker for me. Being able to run wires in the grommets and also having 4 pop-up plugs and USB A/C on the desk, is a bonus, for sure. Desky does not have that option and I thought for sure I'd be drilling holes into my Desky and adding my own, but after getting the desk and the monitor riser(which I am not using it for the monitor, just for more space), I found that I liked the clean desk look better and I've started mounting components under the riser, which I love! I add my DAC and AMP under the riser and I am getting a real walnut wood 4-port USB hub to put under there as well. 60" vs. 72". My wife's desk is 60", where mine is 72". All I can say is, if you have the room and the money, get the larger desk. Afte using my desk and then going into my wife's office, the desk feels cramped and small, but that could be because she doesn't have any monitor arms and uses an AIO PC from work and a second monitor. I will see if she wnats me to get monitor arms. She typically doesn't care about this kind of stuff, but let's see. Regarding the frames. Uplift frame appears to be a little bit more solid, but Desky is no slouch. Ultimately, after using the desky for a week or so now, I have no issues with the frame. The wheels: The locks on the Uplift are way easier to use. The locks on the Desky are like tanks. I actually had to use a hammer the other day to unlock it! WTF! They are extremely hard to lock and unlock. Annoying so. Uplift is plastic locks and Desky is metal. Cable management: Although I prefer the cable tray on the Desky compared to the Uplift, there are some cons on the Desky side. The power strips that snap into the cable tray, which is awesome, are made of plastic. The Uplift 8 port power strip is metal. The power strips plug into this weird mechanism, and then you plug it into the wall. It takes up room in the cable tray, and it seems there could be a better way to daisy-chain the power strips together. The cable tray itself sags a bit in the middle at the almost 6ft length. I bought a strap that I will mount to the underside of the desk to hold it up better. It's not terrible, it just annoys me lol. I feel like they need to make something under the desk to hold up the middle. The Uplift tray is small and the power strip mounts to the frame, but we had to relocate once because things can get in the way of the strip. I think you can put it in 4 or more places. They also sell a cord pouch. It's just a giant puch that attaches to the back of the desk, and you shove all your cables in there. It works well, but it's ugly, IMHO. I don't like the pouch hanging down. Uplift does a better job hiding the motor cables and electronics under the desk, but Desky does better hiding cables overall. I also like that all power plugs are front facing on Desky. The drawers. The Uplift drawer is a fucking tank! It's crazy heavy and solid metal. I was actually nervous to mount it under the desk, but it comes with 6 self-tapping screws, so it can handle the weight. The Desky is also metal, but smaller and lighter. It only has 4 screws. I also got the matching wood face for it, which I love! The keypad: They are similar, but the Desky supports BT and has an app. I probably won't use it to control the up/down, but it's nice for changing settings compared to using the keypad. It also has a timer, to remind you to sit/stand. It also has RGB lights if that is your thing. The warranty: Uplift wins there. 15 year vs. 10 year. The maximum weight. Uplift wins here too, it can hold more weight on the desk. I think mine is 308lbs, which is probably more than enough for most people. Shipping: Uplift wins here, everything came together and fast (I think two days). Desky was two days for some pieces but 5+ days for others. Instructions: Uplift wins here too. It's not a huge difference, but I definitely felt more comfortable with the Uplift instructions. I bought a wood/resin Desky top. It's amazing looking, and you can't compare to MDF, so I won't. You know which one is better :) But I wish that Desky had more information about drilling into the resin and best practices. I had to email support to find out because my under desk drawer needed to partially go into the resin. Luckily, you just need to pre-drill holes, and you are good, but it would have been good to know that ahead of time. Ultimately, I don't think you can go wrong on either desk. For me, I bought the Desky because it had more wood/resin top options and I didn't like the Uplift version (they only have one option). I also felt I would be happier with the cable management of the Desky, and I was right. I thought I would really miss the grommet holes, but I am actually glad they aren't there now. Both are solid options, it just comes down to some minor details that might matter to you more. Hope this helps some of you. If I missed anything you have questions about, let me know.
