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.

UpLift 900 Electric Sit-Stand Desk Base
Fantastic purchase - highly recommend to anyone who's willing to find their own desk-top (I got a great one ar IKEA for under $60).
Fast, very stable, easly to program, quiet.
I couldn't be happier - came with clear, simple, step by step directions (which you actually DO HAVE TO FOLLOW in order :)). -
very good value for dollar
First the positive:
I am happy in many ways with this and would buy it again. Bang for the buck is excellent. Very solid.
Having an assembly video was a VERY smart decision as it made assembly easy and greatly ensured my overall satisfaction. It showed the company cared enough to make it easy to assemble and that is HUGE to me.
Every company that ships an "assembly required" product would be smart to do the same.
The minuses are minor but they are the only reasons I didn't give it a five star.
The presets require you to hold the button down while it goes to a height whereas on a Tempurpedic adjustable bed as an example, you can tap a preset and let go and it goes there without having to hold it.
They designed it this way so your expensive laptop is not pulled off the desk if the cord isn't long enough when you hit the button as you don't have time to stop the desk before a cord gets yanked. Also if the desk has a pinch point with a shelf you can just release your finger from the button to avoid getting pinched or breaking the shelf where if it was moving on its own it wouldn't be possible to stop it in time before an accident occurred. The desk has 350 lbs of lifting force so you need to treat that energy with respect and making you hold down the button to move so much force seems prudent to avoid a bad injury. Safety over a small convenience seems like a good idea in this case. And not a deal killer given the great price and overall value.
The other thing is the silver is more and industrial gray rather than silver. Again not a deal killer but if you are thinking it will have a silver or maybe polished aluminum or steel look , it won't.
That said , I will still give a very high recommendation for this product. I would certainly recommend considering this company for any purchases in the future. -
Couldn't be happier with my purchase + impeccable customer service
I've had my UpLift 900 almost a month now and am extremely happy with my purchase.
I did a lot of research and ummd-and-ahhhd about pulling the trigger for months. Looked at all the top ergo sites that Google came up with and after speaking with reps at various companies, I found out that the majority of them were selling the same product (a rebranded version of Conset desks).
Decided to go with the UpLift 900 over Ergo Depot's AD117 for a number of reasons:
- I wanted the height presets
- it doesn't have the horizontal crossbar that gets in the way of your legs
- the width of the legs is adjustable so you can use different tabletop sizes if you choose
- its rated to lift more
Couple of things to bear in mind:
- The 900 shipped out with a control box that requires you to keep your finger constantly pushed down on the button for it to move (this is a new safety feature). I was hoping for a 1-touch operation. Fortunately they had a unit that had this older 1-touch operation in stock. A+ for Human Solution's customer service team tracking it down and being willing to swap it out for me (at no extra shipping charge...incredible!
- Don't feel like you HAVE to buy the tabletop (unless you want one of their gorgeous real wood tops). Human Solution actually advised me that it adds a lot of cost to the order because it increases the package size so much. I used the same Ikea tabletop that I've had for years and it fits perfectly! Again, great customer service for not pushing the tabletop on me.
Bottom line, I was slightly apprehensive spending so much money on a piece of equipment I'd never seen, and that return shipping costs would be on me if I wasn't happy. No need for the apprehension at all. The table is super-sturdy, and it comes in very secure packaging...nothing will get damaged in transit (although there are very slight scuffs on the feet...but my g/f thinks I'm crazy as the marks are so small).
Very happy with the table.
