It allows you to save multiple height presets, which is perfect for accommodating different users in a shared environment. The Maple and White options come with white legs, whereas the Black desk is completely black from the desktop to the legs.

Previously, with a 18” or so deep desk, my laptop on a Roost laptop stand was kind of both in my face and falling off the back of the desk. We liked the fact that we could put our laptop, a tablet, a power bank and other business accessories in the EG8 Comhar’s storage drawer for quick access. The touch-sensitive controls take a little getting used to, but the motorized mechanisms are surprisingly quiet — even more so than the EN1. The console is attached directly to the right-hand side of the desk, as it contains an advanced system with USB and USB-C ports.The glass top also makes the EG8 Comhar very easy to clean but the glass can be something of a fingerprint magnet. As a 175-pound, 6-foot-3-inch 30-something with two ACL replacements in one knee, sitting for long periods of time is a general challenge; I’m always more comfortable on my feet. This is also a great time to use the included cable clamps to tidy up some of the cables so that they don’t droop and look out of place once you flip over the desk.

Both the Flexispot E8 and the slightly more expensive Flexispot E7 both guarantee good stability – even when extended at the maximum height of 123 cm at the E7 desk and 125 cm at the E8 model. Accessories - From dual-monitor mounts to keyboard holders, privacy panels, and other fitness-related accessories, there are lots of ways to customize your sit-stand-move workspace. The E8 standing desk has a sleek and modern design, with a rectangular desk surface coming in a variety of different sizes and lengths, starting at 120x60cm. In addition to standing desks, they make “desk converters” (the type of apparatus you can have on a regular desk that goes up and down), desk chairs (even a desk bike), adjustable beds and even bedroom furniture.Programmable controller : the Flexispot EW8 electric sit-stand desk lets you program up to four height positions. I feel this is a missed opportunity and something that Flexispot should consider for future revisions. One suggestion for anyone not aware of the weight, while boxed, it will require two people to carry as it is close to 38kg.

When he's not field testing new gear in the Catskills, Adirondacks, or an actual field, he can be found sipping Negronis in his living room and crafting Dr.The Essential Electric Standing Desk from Vari is intended to be used with a laptop just like the EG8 Comhar since it lacks a cable management tray. Due to limited space I wasn’t able to set up a camera to take you through the assembly experience with me, and after opening the box I was glad I didn’t because it would have taken longer to set up the tripod and find an angle that worked than it did to put the desk together. I have room for my external keyboard, mouse, notebook and my setup of drinks during the day (coffee, tea and water).

Since the EG8 Comhar has a glass desktop, FlexiSpot recommends laying down a blanket or using the desk’s box to protect it during assembly. Also, since it’s made from bamboo, you can easily add a third-party cable management tray to the underside of the desk. I’m mentioning this because there is a fault with my sample, but being a desk it’s a bit more challenging to box it back up and pop to the Post Office. It’s clear that a lot of development went into this product, but I’m not sure that there was a lot of collaboration with those who might use it during that development.Other than that, it’s a standing desk, so of course it transitions from the sitting to standing positions, and there’s some cool ways it does that. Stabilization bar - This built-in bar is a fantastic addition, and it makes a huge difference in overall stability — especially if you need to move the table around every so often. You may also want to assemble the desk on a carpet or soft surface, so you don’t scratch the desk surface.
