Looking for stable standing desk recommendations. I don’t like my desk to wobble while standing or pushing against the desk.

The Ikea Idasen looks interesting with it’s Y shaped legs.

So you have a non-wobbly standing desk you love?

Do you have must have desk organizer/ gadgets? I’d love to learn about those too.

Angle braces like that are definitely not necessary. Mine is rock solid and just has the regular shape.

Same here. I don’t know where you’re from but I got mine from Structube, no idea if it’s only a Canadian thing, but it’s rock solid, no angle braces, and there’s a ton on heavy stuff on it.

I love my standing/sitting desk. I use an uplift from thehumansolution. I’ve been using it for about 8 years now. I bought one of their frames only and removed the desktop from my old desk to mount on top. I’m not sure if they sell just the base anymore, but I see they have a lot of options. I also use a lifespan brand walking treadmill under mine that I’ve been using just as long. I highly recommend both. It has done wonders for my back issues that kept getting worse after prolonged sitting.

It is not wobbly, and I have my entire desktop and triple monitors with heavyduty tri-monitor base on top of it.

Seconding uplift. I bought directly from them, I’m not sure how or if that impacted the price. Very sturdy materials with a long warranty (15 years I think) standing behind their products.

That’s very affordable!

I might buy one but I do wonder about the durability at that price

I don’t normally do this, but I had such a good experience with them that I wanted to sing their praises.

I ended up getting a custom one by Deskhaus and I love it. It’s made in the USA and the guy who runs the company is really upfront with a lot of details behind the desk and their competitors. Their youtube channel helps answer a lot of questions about their various desks.
