You don’t have the Uplift V2 Commercial. You have the Uplift V2 Standard. The commercial has a cross member connecting the legs for more lateral stability.

I got an uplift desk 83x31 and love it. It took about 20 mins to put together. It has been adjusted almost daily for years. It has never failed me. It has enclosed dual motors, tri extension legs, preset memory x 4, is silent, and a thick 1-inch single-piece white top with white legs. If I spill anything on it (food, drink, ink, etc) it wipes right off. Nothing has ever stained it or soaked into it, it has never chipped despite 3 moves, and can hold a lot of weight and a lot of things while staying stable. It cost more, about 2x what the cheap ones on Amazon cost, but I believe it is better quality & more solid than most other desks on the market. So many adjustable height desks now have a single exposed motor, and either split tops (2 pieces instead of one) and hollow core cardboard filled tops.

I bought the Uplift desk about 2 years ago. 31x72 size. This is the best desk I have ever used. Every single screw hold was line up with absolute precision. Packaging was great. there is ZERO wobble for me, even at top height and I have a PC hanging in a PC holder that makes the Tower "float" under the desk, and 2 32" monitors with Ergo mounts. A mac mini. a Set pf speakers. Mic. etc. the desk is Loaded. Never had a single issue with it. The little coaster wheels lock and make wire management a breeze....
I have no experience with ODIN. But I will say Uplift is Super High Quality. I will recommend them to anyone and everyone that can afford them... amazing desk.

Not sure why you didn't compare Uplift's 4-legged desk against the Flexispot one.

[combatwombat]

Great, detailed video. You‘re talking about a lot of stuff most other (sponsored) reviewers miss. I‘m actually in shock about the very small difference in price between the two. The odin should be at least double the price due to its massive base and quality.

[nekkowe]

The fact that the Odin's plate doesn't come with pre-drilled holes is baffling to me. For a product in this price range, that's shameful. Flexispot could really stand to improve on that front.

The reason you go down that low is for people that are wheelchair bound. When reviewing these, that is a key disablity item that should be reviewed. These desks are great for those people. You can lift the desk up and the wheelchair can be stowed under the desk when not in use for elderly or disabled.

Good review, but that’s not Uplift V2 Commercial Desk. Please correct the title.

[Sean-kmht]

There is good information to consider, but some issues in this video. As somebody mentioned previously that is the Uplift V2 and not the V2 Commercial. The V2 Commercial doesn't use an inverted leg design, goes a little lower, and has a stabilizing brace between the back legs. Also the direct comparison to an Uplift V2 or V2 Commercial would be a Flexispot E7, it would be more appropriate to compare the Odin E7Q to the 4-leg version of the Uplift V2. Can't say much to price as I've been looking at frame only prices (using a square edge steel workbench top to stick magnets to my desktop), but for like to like features it would probably have made the Uplift the more expensive option.

Fun Fact: He says "ACTUAL" 25 times and "ACTUALLY" 14 times in this actual comparison video between the actual Flexispot Odin E7Q and the actual Uplift Commercial V2 actual standing desks.

[turquoise_sky]

Thanks for mentioning the need to drill. I do not have a drill and have no desire to DIY, so that made the decision for me!!!

[kihamilton]

Hm I feel like the comparison wasn’t fair due to the no. legs. I’d like to see the two legs for each brand up against each other.

[MichaelAlderete]

Nice review and comparison. I really appreciate the look under the desks, and the cable management. So many reviews skip over that. As someone who is a bit OCD about cables, and with some strong preferences for solutions, it’s great to know if my preferred cable management tray/box will fit.

Great comparison vid and one of the best investments most anyone can make. I’ve been a stand up desk user and fist pumper 100 for a decade now and cajn absolutely attest how much they help with back issues or helping to prevent them.

[jasonlengson]

🐬Never seen a four legged standing desk! Thanks for the comparison.

[jenniferburrow]

Is there a reason that you didn't install the commercial bar on the commercial frame in order to increase stability? It feels like you bought the more sturdy desk frame and didn't install the piece that helps minimize wobbling, which creates an unfair comparison. (Unless you got the regular frame, not the commercial frame.)

[jeffbenjamin]

Good comparison. I'm in the market for a new desk, so helpful.

[veryinteresting]

I find it interesting that no company compares their desk against Deskhaus quality. Wonder why?

[JonBonner]

I'm late to the party, but you didn't buy the commercial version of the Uplift Desk. You should edit the video and clarify that. Downvote for not doing so over a full year.

By the way, you're comparing a 4-leg desk to a 2-leg desk, when Uplift also has a four-leg version. A fair comparison would have been each company's 4-leg offerings, but considering you didn't even realize you didn't buy the commercial version, I assume you're not too bright...

[Stompbox]

I'd love to get the one you chose. I've found having an office job now for the last year that I feel like my back hurts more often and I feel it's because I'm sitting all the time now whether I'm working or at home on my home computer. My only issue is that I use a corner desk at home so I don't think a standing desk would really be an option right now. At work we have those things on the desk that make so you can stand at the desk, but they can be a pain since there's not a lot of room on them so when I'm having to print and go through reports I can't really use them.
