Flexispot has smooth operation and easy assembly. The wood table I chose was sturdy and well made. The parts were heavy, but all the better for creating a solid base. The height settings allow me to go from sit, stand, to treadmill heights at the push of a button. The arrows allow for fine tuning or custom height. The long warranty gives me confidence I will be enjoying it for a long while. Excellent product!
First let me be fair by saying that this desk is well built. Its heavy and sturdy with an impressive weight capacity and size. The motors are smooth and quiet, its absolutely a professional quality standing desk.
So why the low score? Because it fails in its most basic task - to go up and down. The electronics just refuse to work properly. You push the up button, and it raises 4 inches, stops and comes back down. It obviously thinks its hitting something and backing off as some sort of safety feature, but the desk is unobstructed (I&ve quadruple checked - its not touching anything) and its only holding 2 monitors and a laptop. The safety feature is so hyper-sensitive that it prevents the desk from working at all. I&ve been using it for over a month now and only once had it simply raise or lower when I push the button. Most attempts to lift it to standing height take 4-6 tries, most recently today, I pushed the button 11 times before it reached its full standing height. Same going back down (to be fair, it lowered in "only" 4 attempts).
I really, really want to love this desk but I can&t recommend it to anyone else. Considering the outrageous cost of these things, I expected it to actually work when I push the button. I&d have been better off with a cheap manual crank model from the home depot. Save yourself the frustration (and money) and look elsewhere.
I love my new E7 Pro in black with a solid wood texture top (walnut). It&s beautiful and sturdy, and it works exactly as expected. Assemble instructions were great -- no real issues other than deciding which direction I really wanted to install the cable management tray that it came with. I ended up installing it opposite the directions so that I could have easier access to it. I thought it was great that the desk included the optional cable management tray. It wasn&t what I was planning to use for cable management, but since it came with the desk, I went ahead and used it, and it works great. The cable management cover that it comes with for its built-in cabling is excellent and elegant -- love the magnetic cover for all of the desk&s inner workings. My husband wasn&t even shopping for a stand-up desk, but after he saw mine, he ordered one for himself. We both highly recommend the FlexiSpot E7 Pro stand-up desk.
This product is difficult to write a review for---however, not for the reason one would expect.
It&s because this desk is so astoundingly great, from the webshop and shipping experience through packaging and labeling, ease of assembly, sturdiness, cable management, operation, esthetics to general product quality in every single way that anything honest I have to say would probably be taken as shilling. It is the truth, though, and instead of gushing on for pages, all I&ll say is I can count on one hand how many products hitting this level I&ve encountered throughout my life, and I wouldn&t even need many fingers.
Congratulations, this unit was worth every single cent. Oh, and one more thing, the 15-year warranty initially felt like a joke or worse, but seeing how and what parts this desk is built from, I believe it. 5/5 stars, no contest.
