Flexispot - E8 Standing Desk

What's the makeup of your day like? If you have lots of meetings they are great, if you do lots of typing they aren't so good. Typically, you get what you pay for and this will be reflected in the stability and load weight; I have the flexispot E8 with the 180x80cm top, I WFH everyday and it's a great desk. Things to bear in mind, get a floor mat, get a cable spine (or too) spend some time on cable management and plan your space e.g. don't put a shelf above where the screen will be raised too, where will your laptop/computer be kept, do you need extension cables for data/video?

Admittedly I've had mine lowered more often than not in recent months but YES, it's worth it. My original plan was to get one and get a small treadmill to walk while I work, never actually got around to that part (couldn't settle on a good model) but the desk itself has been very nice to have. Flexispot E8 is the one I have.

Thanks, I'd looked but didn't find many EC1 listing on Amazon and definitely didn't find that one. My Flexispot E8 has the 55x28 bamboo top and it's definitely a good size. Works well for two monitors plus a 2nd laptop to the side. When buying the second desk\*, I ended up choosing the Uplift V2 with 72x30 dark bamboo top over a Flexispot E7Pro - similarly configured they were similarly priced, Uplift's dark bamboo is solid core vs Flexispot's hollow core dark bamboo, and Uplift has grommet holes (I like the power grommet). Interesting about the keyboard tray - I've disliked every one of those I've encountered. Rather have a low profile keyboard on the desktop. Different strokes I guess. :) Couple additional notes for u/Jolly_Draft_5156 : [Flexispot's cable management tray](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08D63TFH6/) is nice. Helps make a very clean underdesk look. It will work with any desk you can drill a couple screw holes into. I considered buying one for my Uplift but the included one is serviceable though not as nice. I also recommend casters. Makes it super easy to pull the desk out from the wall when you want to adjust / change cabling in the tray, then roll it back and lock the casters when you're done. Lastly, I've been happy with [this cheap monitor stand](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09VNKTCDG) to stash my clamshell laptop under. One of the pair of monitors sits on it, the other doesn't and both line up. (one monitor has a USBC hub, allowing for single cable docking) (\*) two desks 'cuz we split time between two locations

Lumbar during lockdown issues made me get a https://flexispot.co.uk/standing-desks-e8.html? with a bamboo top. cant rate it highly enough. ido stand most of the day when working, but tend to sit in own time

This is how I got mine. Sold my old (not height adjustable) desks for the pair and spent an additional 100 to buy a secondhand flexispot. It really was a steal and too some patience and searching to find. Dual motor is a must in my opinion, as are at least 2 programmable buttons. If it is for home use, don’t bother too much with it being too noisy or quiet

Flexispot but get the dual motor. Mine is 55" long and fits two monitors, laptop stand, and portable monitor with enough writing room and keyboard space. Super sturdy no shaking when changing levels. Really smooth and under $300. No need to splurge on Uplift

Got mine a year ago and use stand mode everyday, usually beginning of day and after lunch. Adjusting height while sitting at different levels for typing vs reading can also alleviate bad posture. There is no reason to spend a grand on a standing desk. Look for a Flexispot dual motor on Amazon. Amazing quality, easy set up, and so smooth. I would only ever get a dual motor. Mine was no more than $300.

FlexiSpot. During COVID lockdown I bought the FlexiSpot dual-motor frame/mechanism, put my own waney edge solid oak top on and waxed it to within an inch of its life. Looks and feels lovely, moves up and down quickly and relatively quietly, and has 3 memories for height. Zero wobble too. I use it daily when WFH - I generally do any meetings standing up because I find I'm quicker and sharper in conversation when standing, and sit down when I'm doing technical work. My only complaint is to do with my WFH office space rather than my desk _per se_. It's a fairly small box room - more of a large cupboard really - and my desk space is necessarily limited. I wish the desk had a bit more width and especially depth - 60cm/2ft depth is only _just_ enough even with the monitor on a clamp stand, and sometimes feels a little cramped. I also do not have a lot of space to push the chair out of the way when in standing mode, so if I start to pace I sometimes bump into the chair. First world problems...

Had my FlexiSpot standing desk for almost 4yrs now and love it. Not one of the fancy ones but the standard (think it was the E series) that has the basic motor and 4 position memory. Has been flawless the entire time and I do use the stand feature regularly as after about an hour or two of sitting I need to get up or my back and hips grumble at me.

I had one of the Ikea ones when they first started doing them maybe a decade ago. It was OK but I found I left it down a lot of the time and if I was standing I wasn't standing in a great posture anyway. Biggest thing was that it had no memory so it was always a bit of a faff going from one to the other and tweaking it up and down a bit to get it right. Ended up in the kids room. Due to change rooms around again at home so I'm tempted to try a Flexispot (with position memory this time). I found it was good for the afternoon lull you sometimes get although my WFH routine rarely has me sitting for hours at a time, I have a wireless headset and wander about if it's a long call, or nip downstairs to make a drink through the day.
