Secretlab Magnus Pro is not cheap, but I'd recommend it to anyone. It does great at what it's meant to do, and the accessories are great. So is the cable management. It can be a slight pain if you need to swap out cables, but since that's rarely done, I don't think it's a huge detractor. If you do dual screen, I'd recommend getting two single monitor arms.

“Actually stable when standing” That depends on how tall you are. I’m 5’7” and my Magnus Pro is fine, but taller people find it wobbly. Trouble is most of them are on two legs, and it’s just physics. That said there are 4 legs standing desks out there, this one seems good: https://youtu.be/Ei_Wq7cdBwg

It all depends on your budget I guess for me I’d highly recommend a standing desk if possible. I got one for free through my job and use it while gaming / working. Generally a good quality one can ring up to the 1k mark secret labs do a Magnus pro and has a nice few things built into it.

That sucks. I bought the secret lab desk Magnus pro xl in white. I don’t have any issues with wobble unless I put it at the max height it can go then there is some which is well above where I would need it for my standing height

I bought a Secret Lab Magnus Pro and absolutely love it. The desk has three presets for different heights, and is extremely sturdy at any height. It also has built-in cable management with a hinged cable tray, and there is an outlet built into the leg, which was key for me as I really wanted a setup that didn't have a lot of cables or cords strung about. They do look a bit more industrial, which may or may not fit your vibe. Happy to answer any specific questions.

I've had mine for over a year and it's fantastic. Yes it costs more, but it's rock solid, the motor is smooth, and cable management is as good as it gets. I also have the 2-monitor stand, the extra magnetic cable management kit, and the laptop holder. 10/10 from me. I do not have the matching pad though - I bought an oversized one that covers most of the desk but not all. It's more cushioned and is water proof, and definitely less than the matching pads. It is heavy, and I assembled it myself - it's doable. But I'd recommend having someone help you move the boxes around, especially with stairs.

I have a Magnus Pro at home. It's pretty good. Personally, though, I'd rather buy an Ergolutions Primus. They have a significantly better price-performance ratio and I like the look of them better.
