Custom Solid Wood 4-Leg Standing Desk (with V3 Frame)

For the 4 leg, you can probably remove the cross bar above your legs if it bothered you long as you kept the one in the back. Stability is rarely a problem at seated heights. Also, side to side stability (aided by crossbars) isn't as important as front to back.

I think there are nuances when it comes to what people refer to as stability. Deskhaus is famous for the videos of pushing desks around at various heights and you can see them bounce around. I think at this point in the standing desk game the designs are so similar you may really not notice a difference between the 3 (i have the uplift 4 leg with connected feet) in that regard. I think rigidity is also important when it comes to something like monitor wobble. I had a thin 1 inch rubber wood which I hated because it was neither thick or rigid enough to absorb day to day actions. For example I could feel typing vibrations thru the rest of the desk which obviously can make monitor wobble more noticeable. This went away when I ended up swapping for a 1.75 inch walnut desktop. Point being I'd focus more on trying to get a thicker > 1.5 inch hardwood desktop. I think the added rigidity will help with monitor wobble.

I ended up getting the one from Uplift. 72x20 Walnut for 800. Haven't had to do any upkeep its kind of up to you. I used to care more and would put some oil on it periodically, haven't done that for years tho lol.

I’m a big fan of dual motor sit stand desks. Have not really cared about the brand, they likely come from the same production line and might not be worth the premium for a known brand name. I do recommend solid wood table top, I’ve got a birch butcher block one, 2ft by 6ft and been using it for over 5 years, looks barely used.

Uplift hands down. Recently got their longest desk with a Pheasantwood top. It not only looks great but is very sturdy and good room. I have a 43 in curved Dell Ultrasharp with a 36 in LG with room for a docking station and other small stuff. Would highly recommend their cable sleeve to hide the cables. Don't bother shopping elsewhere. Oh and great customer service too.

Which desks have you had that have been disappointing? I’m using an Uplift V3 and it’s been great so far.

Well I just had an uplift v3 delivered. 80x30. Will report back in a bit on how it’s going

Had mine for nearly 6 years and would recommend

Seconding this desk! I feel like the mechanics are super smooth and the desk is very stable
