Uplift Desk - V3 Curved Corner Standing Desk

Not sure how this is related to Bloomington-Normal, but I have an Uplift as well. I got the light Bamboo. It’s nice. Ordered during a Black Friday sale one year to get discounts and free stuff.

I have an uplift desk and love it. It wasn’t cheap, but it’s built really well. Very solid, doesn’t shake, etc. Plus, I love how you can customize it and get accessories that mount right to it. I have the 72” curved corner desk. I’m able to put my personal PC (an all-in-one) mounted to an arm on the left, my work laptop in a tablet stand on the right, and 2 24” monitors on monitor arms in the center. The cables are well hidden and all plug into their power strip that mounts under the desk. There’s only 1 cable running to the wall to power the desk and everything.

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

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

[https://www.upliftdesk.com/](https://www.upliftdesk.com/) I swear by this brand. I don't know if this is one of the "usual big-name" desks you're talking about. I had not heard of it until my husband bought one. You can customize almost everything about it (size, color, options etc. ) Different frames available for different amounts of weight on the desk. My husband and I both work from home full time - he has a heavier duty frame than I do because he's got a multiple screens and a work and home machine. He's had his for 6 years, I've had mine for two. He's bought a bigger desktop when we moved and no longer shared an office but the frame/motor etc are the same. The only thing I would not recommend is using the "free" bamboo drawer if they offer it (It was an option when I bought my desk. the wood ended up cracking and it just really wasn't worth it in the end

check uplift. the v3 desk meets your req's.

No experience with Deskhaus, but my wife has an Uplift v2 Commercial and I just got the new V3 so I can speak to the differences. The v3 is definitely an improvement over the v2 in terms of the build experience, much more comes pre-assembled and it took me about half the time of the v2 to put it together. The included cable management channel is also much better with the v3 - it's sturdier, has more room, and making adjustments is much easier than the "custom-fit" v2 solution. Granted this part does not matter if you go with a 3rd party cable management option. The only issue I had was on the desktop for the v3, the predrilled holes to install the brackets for the cable channel were about a half inch too close together and I had to drill a new hole on that side to allow the channel to hang correctly. A little annoying, but did not take much extra time or effort. The rest of the predrilled holes in both desktops were positioned perfectly and assembly was pretty simple for each. Again, more steps on v2 both because less was preassembled, plus the extra crossbar to install on the commercial version. Outside of build experience I haven't noticed any significant differences in stability or function between the two versions. They're good quality desks, not much more to say.

The Uplift V2 and V2 Commercial have additional features to increase the side to side stability (wedges on the column for the V2 and a crossbar for the V2 Commercial). The V3 supposedly has similar/better stability to the v2 without the wedges. The Uplift also has accessories that will bolt directly to the frame, which may interest those who don't want to or can't mount things to the desktop.

I think the Desky would be worth it over the one on Wayfair. The Wayfair one's desktop is in three pieces, so you will have two joints down the depth of the desk. Warranty is a good indicator of the company's faith in their product, so I would go with the longer warranty. Their site doesn't show that the 10 year warranty is something you would purchase like an extended warranty, so it should come with your purchase of the desk. I have a Deskhaus desk that I am very happy with and have used an Uplift desk that was also great. I believe Desky's desk is also manufactured by the same company, Jiecang, except the Deskhaus Apex is manufactured in their US factory. Uplift would be a good one stop shop for you. They just came out with their v3 but I don't know how it compares to their v2. Deskhaus has their Peak series that is comparable to the Uplift v2, but I don't know if you are willing to wait for it to come back to stock. The Deskhaus Apex is a great desk and I love it, but I don't see it's worth anymore compared to the Peak unless you really want something American made.

I love my Uplift V3! I don’t really ever notice and wobbling - it’s super solid even with the massive 80x30 Acacia Chevron top.
