2nd this. I just bought 2 L-shaped from Flexispot and very impressed with the build quality and materials.
At places like Flexispot and Uplift, you can always purchase the L frame and then get two of their 30" depth desktops separately, you would just need to drill your own pilot holes. If you are ok with at least one side being 30" deep, Uplift's is 30" deep on the main side and 27.5" on the return side. If you want 30" depth on both sides with no extra drilling, Progressive Desk's L desk has some size combinations with 30" depth on both sides. If you aren't happy with any of those, you can also try getting the frame from wherever you want and then getting a local woodworker to make the desktop to your exact specs.
I had some good responses with Deskhaus, Flexispot, and Uplift. Didn't really contact anybody else.
Personally I think it would be worth it but Flexispot is a good cheaper choice.
A big feature to look for is a collision sensor — stops the desk from going up or down if it senses resistance in the moving direction Had a desk without this and i have slanted ceilings if I wasn’t paying attention I’d deff go through the ceiling with my monitor I have a flexispot pro now prob the e7 idr but I’m super satisfied with it
The Flexispot dual motor options are around that range iirc? I’ve had mine for about 4 years with no complaints. Dual monitor (32”+24” vert), mac mini, all my power bricks were strapped to a tray under the table.
In motion, I don’t have to worry about a full mug of coffee spilling. Static, about the same as a normal desk.
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.
You can either go the preset ones from uplift, flexispot, etc. but I'm not a fan of the table top because it's usually particle board. It can work for you but to each their own. I got a flexispot dual motor standing desk and paired it with a butcher block top from home depot. You can usually find butcher blocks easily assessible from the big box stores. I also screwed in casters on the bottom so I could move it around when needed. Using the Ikea Signum as cable management and it's...okay. It works but whatever. Depending on how heavy your table top is and how much stuff (weight of monitors, PC tower, etc.) you're going to put on your desk, would recommend get a frame with dual motors.
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
I got a Flexispot on a Black Friday sale and saved about a hundred, honestly pretty sturdy depending on how detail oriented and handy you are with assembly. There's one through Costco that doesn't look half bad that has a glass top, USB-A X1 + USB-C X2 integrated charging ports on the side, and drawer. Though I prefer a wooden top to secure a multi-monitor mount and install cable management.
