Ikea has several. I have the electrical Utmaning model which is very stable, has four height presets and works well overall.

If you can wait a few days I'll be getting the Mittzon on the 28th Then after maybe a week I can tell you how it was working with it, feel free to ask again later in the future if you want a longer term review

I like it but I don't use the standing much, my intention was always to have easy adjustment for ergonomics There's definitely a bit of a wobble when it's at the top, it's not terrible tho, pretty sturdy at sitting height I think the cable management is decent but if you mount a surge protector to your desk, it's slightly awkward where you route the cables in, the thing on the back also makes it a bit awkward for if you want a monitor arm that clamps on your desk, I still need to play around with mine a bit Pretty satisfied overall (I have the 160x80)

I use a Kinnarps desk at work. They are pretty stout and rather large. I don’t recommend the powered ikea desks. My wife has one at home and it’s meh. I have a left hand corner desk at home that I think is also a Kinnarps desk and love it. Mostly because it’s sturdy. It’s rather old though so it doesn’t have and features beyond moving up and down. My son’s computer desk has a base we got from Amazon on a top we already had. It t has memory features so you can set preselected heights which is nice.

I honestly hardly use mine but it’s still worth it because it’s a great desk. I got the IKEA powered one.

+1 sample size from me, mine is about to have it's 6th birthday, second top (moved from left corner to right corner) and has moved houses four times. I love it!

I got an electric IKEA one years ago and love it. It makes switching between sitting and standing so easy. I do that probably every one or two hours. Also important: Get a gel mat for standing.

Get one of the electric IKEA standing desks. You can test them in store and they have the best return policy.
