Most of the actual frame components are nearly identical. Commodity quality motors, gears etc.
As others have said the monitor mount and top material are where you will see the most difference.
I have a VIVO Amazon one with the bamboo wood tip and it's excellent, better than the expensive uplift brand one I have at work.
I can’t imagine building something when I could purchase a solid one for $200. I’ve had mine for 5 years now - no issues with motor or anything. I guarantee if I built it I could not lean on it without it turning into firewood.
Save yourself and purchase. This was the best thing I purchased going WFH.
[Standing Desk](https://amzn.to/4pP1ZaB)
I've had this one for almost 3 years and I LOVE it!
It has 4 memory settings for different heights (I use 1 for sitting position and the other 3 for various standing heights - based on my shoe height for that day Lol).
VIVO Electric 60 x 24 in Standing Desk, Memory Height Adjustment, 1B Series, One-Piece White Top, White Frame, DESK- KIT-1W6W
I got it in Amazon: https://a.co/d/5D6iwNW
I just got the 60x24 desk on Amazon for $200. A single drawer adds $50 and dual drawer add-on adds $100.
I’d also recommend getting the magnetic surge protector from Philips and stick it on the desk leg. The magnet is so strong, it’s very hard to come off.
SO and I have had 4 Vivos. I started with a small one while wFH during Covid, buttons to go up and down. Got an L-shaped one with cubbies shortly after when I moved back into my office. Got the same L shaped one for the SO at her office. Got another L shaped one, this one with no cubbies (wanted all the desk space) when I started a new position WFH and sold the small one. They work just fine, don’t wobble, are relatively quiet, and hold plenty of weight. They’re all holding up great. I did have to buy cable management trays, but for the cost of the vivo compared to others it has been an easy recommendation.
