Flexispot - E7Q

I can recommend you the Flexspot E7Q, it has 4 motors and is more stable than those T-shape desk frames.

With that budget I’d jump on the current Flexispot sale. I have an E7Q and love it but you can go with the E7 Plus or Plus Max which are totally in your budget and four legged so bye bye wobbling of any sort.

I went for a Flexispot standing desk with a walnut top (I think, a dark wood option). Thing is much bigger than I thought it'd be, but I love it, I now spend most of my day standing up.

Got one from Flexispot and while it's awesome, it turned out to be way bigger than I'd imagined. Still, highly recommended.

Flexispot is awesome quality in my experience. I’ve been very happy with mine w/ a 72 inch top. As Ok_Toe said, get the light bamboo if possible. It is awesome.

I’ve heard the dark bamboo is a hollow honeycomb design & the yellow/light bamboo is solid but .75 inches thick. I don’t know if the dark bamboo is as good, I haven’t heard bad things about it though. The tensile strength of solid bamboo is pretty awesome so I went with it for longevity.

Flexispot E6 Max on Amazon or the Flexispot E7/E5 from them directly. I’ve been very pleased with mine & they have a solid warranty, longer than most. Look at the solid light bamboo if possible, it has a similar tensile strength to steel & looks very pretty. Another solid option if it will fit your height is the hand crank Home Depot Husky standing desk. It looks good & is very heavy duty. It wouldn’t go tall enough for me but I am 6 ft 4 in.

Flexispot E7Q has been serving me well - I have it for 2 years now

Flexispot and uplift are great desks uplift being the better when it comes to motors. Which has the higher weight limit and what do the motors look like?

I got the FlexiSpot E7Q and it is way solid. I did frame only then put my own butcher block on top. I had a cheap two leg and I tried doing steps to improve it but still was not as good as going four leg. Now I am on carpet so when I got up there is a little wiggle but nothing like the old two leg.

I think Flexispot is a good choice too but Uplift has a slight edge for you because of their accessories ecosystem with the frame attachment points and the additional stability with their wedge design. If you want grommets but are unsure what to put in the grommets, there is nothing wrong with using the standard ones first.

I had some good responses with Deskhaus, Flexispot, and Uplift. Didn't really contact anybody else.

Can you use a monitor arm to lower the monitor height? If not, Flexispot's E7 goes to around 23" without a desktop but it's stability isn't as good as the E7Q.

One thing I have to point out is that both we and Deskhaus focus on the essence of what makes a desk... well, a desk. When you're using a desk, the most important thing—or let’s say the most annoying thing—is how much it wobbles. This is something a lot of people don’t realize because with a regular desk that’s 27 inches high, as long as it’s not a total piece of junk, it’s usually pretty stable. But here’s the catch: when you raise a desk to 35 or 48 inches, wobbling becomes an issue. This is just a universal downside of standing desks—it’s unavoidable. The best anyone can do is minimize it. That’s why some customers think their standing desk is defective when it feels unstable, but in reality, that’s just how these desks work. For example, check out this \[[YouTube video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t-mWszhGYcw)\] that tests the stability of the Uplift V2. Now, back to the point. While Secretlab's desk does have a ton of flashy accessories that look cool, I personally think they missed the mark on the desk’s core purpose—it’s got noticeable wobble. Those fancy add-ons? You can find similar ones on Amazon and use them with a more stable standing desk, which I think is a smarter move. That said, most decent two-leg standing desks are stable enough for typical office use. For example, when you’re typing while standing, you won’t really notice the monitor shaking unless you’re actively pushing on the desk. That’s why some people are perfectly happy with Secretlab’s desk—it all comes down to how much wobble someone can tolerate. If you’re more sensitive to wobbling, you might want to look into a four-leg standing desk for better stability. Even among four-leg desks, though, there are differences. Build quality matters a lot. Generally, unless you’re dealing with crazy brand markups, pricier desks tend to have wider crossbars, thicker legs, and three-stage columns. For instance, comparing our FlexiSpot E7 Plus and E7Q, both are four-leg standing desks, but the E7Q is more stable because it’s built with a heavier-duty frame. You can literally see it in the product weight. But here’s the kicker: the E7 Plus is priced similarly to many two-leg standing desks, and it’s obviously way more stable than those. Check out this \[[stability test video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V53gM7FxBGU)\]—start at the 5-minute mark to see the E7 Plus in action. If your budget’s got some wiggle room, the Deskhaus Apex Pro or our E7Q would both be solid picks.

You’re 6'1" with a heavy setup. Forget the base E7. You need stability at height, which means a T-frame is better than a C-frame. It's between the E7 Pro and the E7Q. The E7Q is a four-leg tank. It has zero wobble, but it's overkill for 99% of people. Unless you're doing microscopic soldering on it, you don't need it. I've got an ultrawide and a vertical monitor on the E7 Pro. It's solid. Any tiny bit of movement you might notice comes from the monitor arms, not the desk frame. Save the cash, get the E7 Pro, and spend the difference on beefy monitor arms that clamp down tight. That'll give you the stability you're actually looking for.
