Best standing desk for dual monitor setup?

Hey everyone,

I’ve been looking for the best standing desk lately because I’m tired of sitting all day working from home. i read reviews on wirecutter, forbes, and tom’s guide, and they all recommend these two as the top picks

Electric Standing Desk, 63 * 30 Inches Adjustable Height

https://www.amazon.com/ExaDesk-Electric-Standing-Adjustable-Workstation/dp/B0C27S3GCY

VIVO Electric 60 x 24 in Standing Desk, Memory Height Adjustment

https://www.amazon.com/VIVO-Adjustable-Workstation-Controller-DESK-KIT-1B6B/dp/B07V6ZSHF4

I’m having a bit of trouble deciding which one would suit my needs best. i usually work with 2 monitors, a laptop, and sometimes write notes or draw with a tablet. i also want something stable that doesn’t wobble when typing or adjusting height.

Anyone here using either of these? which one do you think is better in terms of durability and comfort for long hours? or is there another standing desk you’d recommend around the same price range?

Thanks in advance, really appreciate any help!

There’s a really good thread about standing desks here:

But to answer your question, you could buy the frame and then pick your desk/table top - that way you can choose the exact size of top you need and this is exactly what I did :icon_biggrin:

This is the unit I purchased when it was on sale:

It is very sturdy and touch wood, has been very reliable.
