UPLIFT Bamboo Stand Up Desk

First of all yes it's not cheap but this is REAL office QUALITY furniture. It was easy to medium difficulty assembling. Be careful not to lose the rubber grommets in the leg platform during assembly. My desk is bamboo 80x30. The color is a medium darkness, like golden oak. It is beautiful. It's shameful to have to cover it with in-boxes, keyboard, mouse pads...LOL The desk is very sturdy and heavy. The motor mechanism is flawless and smooth. I upgraded the control panel and love the memory function of the control. I expect this desk never to wear out. I purchased the desktop holder accessory. It integrates nicely and my huge desktop box is nicely suspended off the floor. I suggest you purchase the largest desk you can afford. You'll have room for your printer, in-box, an area you can write or study and then your keyboard. Also a very amazing addition is the monitor holder with arms. That's my favorite accessory. It's nice to get the monitor at exactly the level and angle you need. I would definitely recommend this desk to a friend.

It's now been 4 years since I've had this desk and i have found no fault with it (that was not of my own making).

The mechanics are still going (though i have to admit the engines don't see use every day) and there have not been any issues or repairs that had to be done.

The Bamboo top can see sun damage along the years especially noticeable if you have one of the large keyboard+mouse pads that occupies a lot of the area. But still, not bothersome unless you take it off and sit in a well it room - to be expected and i don't think the manufacturer can do anything about it.

One thing i kinda regret getting was the Keyboard Tray - with today's big monitors and big resolutions it just forces you too far from the optimal viewing distance - you can compensate by bringing the monitors closer but then you waste a lot of desk space (even if you use arms). This in turn made me eventually (after a year or more) switch to using the desk but now because i got a center-cut with ergo edge bamboo top that is a bit annoying as well since the keyboard has to sit quite forward - like i said nothing that i did not do of my own making :)

Some faults that do not relate directly with the desk but to keep in mind when ordering: the CPU holder is very awkward to use and does not fit very well for anything above a small tower (mine is medium to large and it's quite difficult to install); the wire holder form the management kit is quite flimsy and at one point just cracked without any stress on it (maybe newer models are better - have not checked).

If you are into wire management i would suggest getting quite a few of those little clips but buy strong 3M double-side tape separate and use those with the wire clips - original tape does not hold.

Last but not least i fully support this products and I am truly happy with the quality and unless it breaks on me or such i expect to use this desk for at least another 4 years (maybe a new lacquer layer for the top, but not much else) - very good investment.

I highly recommend this desk. I love being able to stand while I work or sit down by simply pushing a button and rolling my chair over. I 6'5 and this is just tall enough for me at the highest setting. Get the memory keypad, it is very much worth the extra money. I got the motion x board and I like it as it gets me moving while I work instead of standing still but I would recommend one of the motion boards with some padding as my feet start to hurt standing on a wood board all day. The desk is not wobbly with my four 27" screens on it. I will be buying more of these for the rest of the office in the future.

I purchased the contoured bamboo top 60x30 desk with the metal drawer that includes a shelf. Also purchased the expanded wire management and a metal channel for the side.

The salespeople were professional and patient as I waorked through the options. The delivery guys also did assembly - efficient, professional, friendly and worth the added cost.

The desk top is welll constricted and beautiful, with a nice finish and the contour adds significantly to the the aesthetic. The black frame also has an excellent finish. The lifting mechanism is smooth, quick and quiet enough that it doesn’t bother my office mate.

It is quite stable at standing heights.

My only fault is that the magnetic channel is not as good as I hoped in that any pressure from the cords causes it to slip a little. I could probably remedy this with wire ties in the cords but haven’t gotten around to it.

i have and will continue to recommend this product.

Read plenty of reviews from users and publications that claimed this is one of the best standing desks out there. They were 100% correct. Years ago, I had a Jarvis desk. It was good, but there were nitpicky issues here and there that made me like it less. Uplift fixed every minor and major issue I had. I am impressed and glad I chose to buy from them instead of getting another Jarvis.

The sales team was awesome and helpful. Very informed and made purchasing as easy as could be. Can't thank them enough.

I am impressed with the quality of this desk. I didn't want a stand up desk that only moved my PC up and down. I wanted access to the whole desk. The construction is solid and very sturdy. The bamboo wood is very high quality. This is the best stand up desk on the market, by far.

I just put the desk together last weekend and have 3 days use on it so far. Maybe too early for a review? I don't think so. It is literally the exact desk I have wished for, for years. Previously, I had been using a Walmart desk that I added a hunk of MDF to the top of to make it bigger and added risers for my monitors. This Uplift desk is just beautiful and functional. Pre-drilled holes were great. Instructions left a little to be desired, but I'm a handy guy so I can figure things out (placement of under-desk items didn't match my desk). This purchase was well worth it. I got the powered grommets and the advanced cable management (mostly for the cable tray). This desk puts a smile on my face to use, truly. :)

I got the 60" bamboo top with the curved edge and black legs and 2 grommets. The look is modern and clean. I also bought a black desk pad to go on top. The edge has a scratch already (everyone in my family denies scratching it), so I'm not sure how it happened. I'm thinking belt buckle rubbed against it as it was going up? Not sure, so be careful with your desk.

I also have 2 monitor arms. When you have 2 arms and 2 grommets, you are limited as to where to clamp the arms and still have the monitors meet in the middle. I shifted the arms a little to the right (ie there is more desk space to the left of the left monitor than the right monitor, so the arms cannot be perfectly centered on the desk due to the grommets). Just something to keep in mind as you are configuring your desk.

I also got the half circle "drawer" as part of a complimentary package that came with my desk. The front curve of the desk meant that the drawer couldn't be placed all the way to the far side of the desk (it has to be placed closer to the middle of the desk) in order for it to align with the front curved edge when the drawer is rotated to the "closed" position. This would have been good to know in advance. If you are getting the half circle drawer, you may not want to select the curved edge. It is workable, but if I had known this in advance, I would have not chosen the curved edge. This is harder to explain in words, but if you saw a picture, you would understand immediately.

I got the 72" bamboo top stand up desk with the TR1200-DT3 walking treadmill and am very happy with both.

Before buying, my biggest concern with the desk was that it would be too wobbly at standing height, especially with the 72" width and my dual monitor arm setup. But I haven't had any problems with wobble. This desk is solid - you have to bump it pretty hard to get it moving.

The desk top is very smooth. Great for writing. Overall, it feels like a lot of work went into the design.

I also got the 1-Touch Digital Memory keypad, and highly recommend it.
