I do! Got it last summer. Been very happy with it so far. Love the pre sets. Moves quick, quiet but not silent. Typically go on mute just to be safe if I’m in a call. I’ll lean on it pretty often and hasn’t been a problem. Was also pretty easy to put together

Yeah i have one, really wanted a standing desk and it was the best price I could find (found a discount code online for it too R-20POFF which sweetened the deal so I took the plunge). Pretty sturdy, I have a double monitor set up and there’s no struggle moving the desk up or down. Got the dual motor option with the tabletop in white. Took about 2 hours to put together. I probably stand for about half of the day, at first it was killing my feet so I got one of those anti fatigue mats and have had no issues since (a yoga mat would probably work too or anything with some padding, maybe even just not standing barefoot).

I got the 'professional' (dual motor) base only and paired it with an Ikea top since reviews complained that their top scratches easily. Very happy with it - easy to assemble, quiet and fast, feels sturdy. Wobbles a teeny bit when it's at the top and I lean on it, but it's fine

I like the desk, but as someone else said, that thing was a bitch to assemble. It said it would take 20 minutes and it took me like an hour

Agree with both above. Also, was expensive when I bought last summer.

What’s a good brand for standing desk? Looking for a white one 50inch+

Go with the costco $350 desk

I have an Uplift - pricier but more sturdy

Working on a regular desk and my laptop has been killing my back and neck for last few years. Finally spent a couple hundred dollars on a standing desk, wireless keyboard, and back/neck heating pad to alleviate the pain. Very hopeful working will be much better now.

Joining a big firm next week as fully remote lateral and flying out to home office for orientation. The schedule has me in office until 4:15. I’ve already been told I won’t have any actual work. Depending on how many people are there and how it feels, I was planning to stay an hour extra but should I hang around the office until later? First time visiting this city so it’d be great to take in some sights too (although that’s not a priority of course).

Just landed a full time gig, looking to get some furniture so I’m not working on my parents’ kitchen table during this remote period. Any recommendations for desks and chairs? I’m hoping to find something that’s easy to assemble and break down for when I need to move, and something that won’t cost an arm and a leg.

I know everyone has a different kind of setup that works for them. I currently have a laptop, drawing pad, second monitor, and a desk riser.
