You guys clearly know what's up (and down)! Thanks for the detailed info!

Thanks so much for this - very detailed analysis esp. with the electronics and gears that I've never thought of before. This has helped me a lot

What do you think of pneumatic rather than electric. I can only afford a lower end desk and wonder if this is a way to limit breakdown.

the 2 board system separating PS and main control board is very useful for repairs especially because its usually the PS that fails. With a single board you would have to replace the entire board which is of course going to be more expensive. Obviously if they are using poor quality PS then that's no good.

Have you guys considered taking a look at Omnidesk?

[douglas_dev]

nice that they tell the brands they tested...

[princezardos]

is there an electric standing desk out there that can shift to manual adjustment when the electronic control fails?

Thanks, BTODtv, for the instructive video!...QUESTION: Looking at electric standing desks with a high weight capacity, which four leg electric standing desk do you recommend?

Are you aware on how electronics work?
How well circuits are glued on is hardly a factor. Unless you've conduct regression testing by constantly raising and lowering the standing desk over a course of time, you're pointing at things that don't really make a difference. The thing that kills electronics is heat... Just so you know. :)

Your other points are sound.

Really informative video! Much appreciated! Hey can you do a list of the best electric two-tier desks? I am really interested in two tiered desks but there seems to be so little information on them

[Nicolas-foqd]

My biggest problem finding a good desk is that all the best desks are not available in Canada..

Torn between Uplift Desk V2 and VertDesk V3

Is there any attachable tray that can be put at the desk legs? Like a tray to put your gaming console instead of putting it on your desk.

[droomagon]
