The only downside to the whole desk is that there are no sensors to stop the motor if it hits an obstacle when it’s going down, which could be expensive if your chair gets caught under it-or upsetting if it’s your cat. A few more pre-drilled holes for the control box and the central beam would have been nice, but the surface is easy enough to screw into with a bit of elbow grease. When you raise and lower the desk, the smooth action instills confidence too, and it’s just as sturdy at its highest position.Ĭonstruction is a straightforward task, taking just over an hour to turn the two boxes into a working, versatile desk. The good news is that the Flexipost is rock solid-even though I have an old screen with a flimsy stand, it doesn’t move even with my most aggressive emails. If everything is bouncing along as you type, it doesn’t matter if you’re sitting or standing you’re going to want to break it up.
Of course, the main thing you want from any desk is stability. Or you can set your height manually, with the current level shown on the three-digit display. The control panel can hold three different height profiles in its memory banks and moves smoothly between them. The Flexispot supports heights from 71cm (27.8in) up to 121cm (47.6in), which should have you covered for all comfortable sitting and standing setups. And it will do it all at a reasonable price.
The Flexispot EN1B may not have the catchiest name here, but it makes for an impressively sturdy, motorized adjustable desk for anyone looking to upgrade their home/gaming/office setup.
