I love the idea but can't deal with how much they wiggle. They all seem to only have 2 legs, which results in them being very wobbly, particularly at standing height.
Interested to hear if anyone knows of any actually stable sit-stand desks..
- korhojoa 3y agoThere are ones with more legs, but they are in a different price category altogether.
- SteveNuts 3y agoI got an L shaped one from wayfair and it’s extremely solid at all heights
- mantas 3y agoUsing mid-tear Ikea sit-stand desk for 5+ years. So far so good. Not wobbly even with a 24" display with some plants next to it.
- joncrocks 3y agoThe important thing to bear in mind here is that wobble is relative, i.e. One persons `wobbly` is another persons' `stable`.
- mantas 3y agoYes. But with this desk one should be really really sensitive to wobble to call it wobbly. For the record, I do consider some desks wobbly. E.g. cheapest Ikea desks.
- tasseff 3y agoI have this desk from a Michigan-based company called Deskhaus (https://desk.haus/collections/sale/products/apex-pro-max-butcher-block-combo-1?variant=43741403971805 https://desk.haus/collections/sale/products/apex-pro-max-but...). It’s very stable. They also have a YouTube channel, and they test the wobbliness of desks in a few videos (e.g., https://youtu.be/dv-vjJqukn0 https://youtu.be/dv-vjJqukn0).
- xtirpation 3y agoI've had a negative experience with Deskhaus's customer service. Their product is good, but if anything goes wrong during its life you may have trouble getting a response. In my case I wanted to ask about replacement parts because it seemed like a power surge might've knocked out the box controlling the desk - didn't get a single response despite reaching out via email and their contact form, not even a "We don't sell replacement parts and you're on your own" reply.
- korhojoa 3y agoI gave in and found a reddit post that contains four-legged variants: https://www.reddit.com/r/StandingDesk/comments/z1wt4n/list_of_four_leg_standing_desk/ https://www.reddit.com/r/StandingDesk/comments/z1wt4n/list_o...
- heeton 3y agoThis is an XY problem in my experience. The problem is not desk wiggle, it's monitor and webcam wiggle. I mounted my monitor to my wall with an ergotron arm, and now I haven't noticed a single desktop wiggle.
- andjd 3y agoI have not personally used it, but Flexispot has a 4-leg adjustable base: https://www.flexispot.com/flexispot-4-leg-standing-desk-e7plus https://www.flexispot.com/flexispot-4-leg-standing-desk-e7pl...
- aPoCoMiLogin 3y agothat sounds like really cheap desk. i've got adjustable desk mostly because the one that i've seen in ikea etc were the most stable desks that there were available.
