Why Work Is Better with an UPLIFT Desk
Designed with high expectations for both functionality and style, when you invest in an UPLIFT V2 Sit-Stand Desk Frame, you get so much more than height adjustability. You'll get some pretty brag-worthy benefits, too:
- Certified sturdy and strong, it passed the ANSI/BIFMA X5.5-2021 Desk Standard for durability
- Ability to attach desk accessories directly to your frame via 48 patented mounts
- 3-stage legs are 33% faster than 2-stage legs, so you get to sitting and standing heights quicker
- Powerful dual motors (one in each leg) can lift up to 355 lb of gear
- Included anti-collision sensitivity restricts your desk from moving if it bumps into people or things
- 15 year warranty on all frame, mechanical, and electrical components
- Distraction-free 48 dB operation noise lets you raise and lower the desk without breaking your focus
Let's Discuss Height Ranges
We're excited to give users two different frame options when it comes to their desks: the UPLIFT V2 Frame and the UPLIFT V2-Commercial Frame. Click here (pdf) to see their differences at a glance.
We'll start with the UPLIFT V2 Frame. This office-ready frame has a height range of 25.5" - 51.1" (with a 1" desktop installed). Users love it for its sturdiness, its quiet adjustments, and its smart features—which are just a few of the reasons why it was selected as the "Best Standing Desk" by Wirecutter.
Our other frame option is the UPLIFT V2-Commercial Frame. This frame has a lower minimum height of 22.6" (with a 1" desktop installed). It also has a larger overall height-adjustment range compared to the UPLIFT V2 Frame. And you'll be glad to know it meets both the ANSI/BIFMA G1-2013 height standard and the ANSI/BIFMA durability standard.
The commercial frame also supports working postures (pdf) for 5th percentile females through 95th percentile males, sitting and standing.
An Easier Way to Add Accessories
If you look underneath your new UPLIFT V2 Sit-Stand Desk Frame and see a team of holes—you just found our patented mounting system. These spots let you use your desk with a growing collection of desk accessories, and remain discreetly hidden, so you keep a clean look at your workstation.
Your accessory options are many, and include attachable CPU holders, a foot hammock, power strips, and even an under-desk hammock. This is perfect for when you're in the mood to take a load off (and maybe even a mid-afternoon nap).
With a wide array of accessories planned for release, you'll be able to piece together the perfect workstation that works for you.
Please note: the under desk hammock is only compatible with the UPLIFT V2 Frame. It's not compatible with the UPLIFT V2-Commercial Frame, due to its interference with the stability crossbar.
Upgrade to the Advanced Keypad for More Features
Our standard keypad will get you working, but if you want access to all of your desk's features, you'll need the Advanced Keypad.
This desk has a great memory, and lets you work with one-touch adjustments on four easy-to-program buttons. Just tap a button and move.
You'll get advanced safety features, too. Activate the keypad child lock so that curious little fingers don't adjust your desk without your permission. And set your frame's max and min height limits, preventing your desk from knocking into shelves above, or file cabinets below. If it does bump into something, the control box has an anti-collision sensitivity feature that stops the desk from moving.
Last but not least, an auto-dark LED display will help you reduce distractions; 10 seconds after use, your keypad will dim to focus-assisting darkness.

Bamboo Desktop FAQs
- What types of desktops can I install on this frame?
You'll have the freedom to install most types of tops, but we do advise choosing a desktop that's at least 3/4" to 1" thick and 42" to 80" wide. The top you choose will also need to be compatible with wood screws, which are used to connect the frame to the desktop. Some good desktop materials that we've found to be ideal include: solid wood, laminate, bamboo, and other sturdy materials.
- Is it possible to add a circular desktop?
We have seen our customers install circular tops, yes! Just make sure your top is at least 3/4" - 1" thick and is centered on top of the frame.
- Can I install a glass desktop?
Glass is a little trickier to install, but if you have a bit of experience with DIY, you might be able to install a glass desktop that has been first installed on another material (like wood). This will allow you to successfully attach it to the UPLIFT V2 Stand Up Frame.
- Does this come with the hardware needed to attach a desktop to the frame?
Yes, your new frame will include the wood screws necessary to attach your frame to your desktop. Just double-check that the wood screws are not longer than the desktop is thick before starting the installation process.
- Can I paint my frame?
No, painting the frame would compromise the leg as it retracts.
Made with the same UPLIFT V2 Frame that Wirecutter named the "Best Standing Desk, 2019-2020 and in 2020-2021" you'll be able to do so much more at this workstation—thanks to increased stability, newly-added safety features, and a patented mounting system (which lets you really customize your desk down to the last detail).
Enjoy working at this powerfully reliable desk frame. Made with steel and sealed with a powder-coat finish, this frame gives you carte blanche for your desktop, meaning that you can DIY it or choose one of ours. If you're looking for this frame and a desktop, see our UPLIFT V2 Standing Desk.
You can choose this frame or the UPLIFT V2-Commercial Frame. Click here (pdf) to see the contrast between the two frames.

great desk!
Is a great desk. I set a 48 x 30" piece of glass on top, leveled and fixed it with heavy duty clear mounting tape [taped the control panel to the glass too]. Zip tied the electric box to one of the leg and mounted a adjustable swing arm for my imac to the glass. [having a piece of glass that just barely overhangs the desk supports definately helps balance the weight on the swing arm.]
Everything works like a dream. -

Only complaint I have is that the paint chipped -small- when I was tightening a screw. Otherwise, everything works like a dream.
Also, customer service is fantastic. Even went the length to get dimensions of the casters for me. -
UpLift 920 No-Crossbar
This was an excellent purchase for my home office. I thought the motors would be too loud but they are not. The legs seem very sturdy. I used an old keyboard tray I had laying around, bought a birch table top from Ikea, and a monitor stand from UpLift for $109 that's amazing. And I bought the'advanced' wire management kit. The only thing I have not tried out are the memory settings. I'm sure I'll call customer service so they can get me educated on those, they are very helpful and knowledgeable. But it doesn't bother me as I know the two heights to use just after a few tries. I would recommend an adjustable height desk to anyone considering a standing workstation.

Couldn't be happier
Great desk, great customer service. I wish I had ordered one years ago. I ordered just the base and had a custom top made, and it has worked out perfect.

great desk
I got the frame and picked up a nice wood table top at Ikea for $80. Once assembled the desk works great. It's super adjustable, the presets are nice and adjustment is smooth and quick. The desk is also stable.

As Advertised and then some.
I thoroughly researched standing desks before buying this one. It has been everything I expected it to be. It is sturdy and stable. It starts and stops softly. The adjustments are excellent. I couldn't ask for anything better. It was definitely worth the price.

Fantastic Unit
I couldn't be happier with this base. It is a fantastic value. I've been using it at work for 2 months now and have 0 complaints.
