I spent hours researching professional reviews and comments on electric standing desks and this desk was not in any Top 10 list, but the brand Flexispot did show up on many of them for their larger models so I felt confident the quality would be good. What drove me to this particular model was the smaller size and the middle drawer. I needed something compact, but big enough to comfortably fit a 32" monitor, MacBook Pro and companion wireless keyboard, mouse, and magicpad. I've been using it two months now and still feel it is the perfect fit for me. Initially I was going to save some money and get the vinyl top, but I'm so glad I went for the glass top. Easy to clean and I love the premium modern look.
I don't have first hand experience with other electric desks so I can't say the motor is quieter than others, but make no mistake when you operate the motor you will clearly hear it. Its loudness may compare to turning your iPhone ringer up to 60%. The table does adjust quickly and smoothly. The adjustable presets work great. I only need 2 myself, but the other two may come in handy if you share the desk with another person. All the USB charging ports work, though I'd rather the table not had them and instead lowered the cost.
Although most reviews recommend two people to assemble the desk, I found it quite easy to do by myself. I'm not athletic, in fact I'm suffering from neck, back, and arm pain which is why I bought the desk so if I could do it easily I'm sure most people can too.
For me the desk only has one downside and that is it has no cable management. I easily remedied that with velcro and zip ties.
I didn't like the stabilizing bar on the bottom of the desk stand as I thought it would be uncomfortable to deal with. In practice it's not bothersome at all, doesn't interfere with a large chair like my Secret Labs Titan XL, or sitting posture. I do find my self using it to rest my feet on when reclining in my chair.
Overall I recommend this desk for someone looking for a compact electric standing desk at a reasonable price point. It's worth noting I got mine on sale on Amazon for $399.99 so keep an eye out for a sale.
The main differences between the two models are the height and stability. Our Business edition can support up to 310 lbs while the Home edition is 265 lbs.
The business model has a larger height range where the lows and highs are greater: 27.6-45.2 inches versus 23.62-49.21 inches. The business model also has reinforced matte gloss painted square columns versus rectangular raw steel metal columns and wider tapered feet.
Both models are made the exact way but the business model will provide a faster/quieter experience and hold more weight capacity 🙂
