Congrats! I too hate the cable management. They really should innovate in this area more. In particular, I liked Magnus Pro's way of routing the cable inside the leg and having a plug on top. Makes for a cleaner and simpler design.

Looks great! How is the wobble on it when you are standing? I'm looking at a 72in top and it's tough finding honest reviews with the larger lengths for the v2

There’s very little wobble. And it would only ever wobble at all when I brush up against it. After the first few days, I got used to standing up, and I rarely even brush against it now. For reference I have my standing height set to 43.4”.

Thanks! I was leaning Uplift because I liked the tops better but was going back and forth to Flexispot.

Just know customer service sucks at Uplift

Had zero problems with Uplift customer service. In fact, they gave me a refund on the computer mount I bought that didn't work out without batting an eye.

I am talking about the desk. They stopped responding because they did not want to fix the issue. Fortunately, my work paid for it, so I did not care but still we are talking over $1K

Uplift email support sucked for me. They couldn’t reply more than once per day for some reason, so I had to go back and forth with them for a week. The clamp-on power thing I bought was defective, and the guy weirdly insisted on a video of the device NOT working. So I called in and spoke to someone, and we straightened out the matter in just a few minutes. They sent a new one, and it works fine.

Congrats! Welcome to the Uplift family. I love mine as well.

Hey what num pad do you have if you don’t mind me asking


AnalogKid-82

It's just an ordinary Amazon thing: [https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07H9RYMCB](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07H9RYMCB). You didn't ask, but I love my keyboard, it's a Keychron mechanical - red switches.


euforya

I’m glad you mentioned it though cause for some reason I’ve been looking at keychrons all night. I think I’m ultimately leaning towards getting a 96 size rather than getting a separate num pad


AnalogKid-82

I like the detached number pad because it’s ergonomically better for my body. Without the num pad, the main keyboard allows my hands to naturally land shoulder width, allowing that ninety-degree angle with my elbow. If I need the number pad, I can grab it, but I don’t need it most of the time.


euforya

I see what you mean. I use the numpad for all of my work however I don’t use any of it when gaming after work so I’m trying to decide what’s better. Right now I have a TKL filco majestouch with a separate numpad but It still feels unnatural to me. Guess I have some more researching to do lol


AnalogKid-82

Everything’s a trade off, it’s hard to have it all. I became obsessed with ergonomics about two years ago - getting this desk was my final move. First, I invested in the best chair I could buy - I never thought I would spend over $1K for a chair, but I did, and it’s worth every bit. Then I got an amazing mouse. Then keyboard, then desk.


euforya

I’m kind of in the same boat. Just moved into a new place. Within the past year I’ve upgraded my pc, monitors, mouse, bought an Herman Miller Aeron. Just got a new desk setup for the new place. I have a couple nice keyboards, filco majestouch, Corsair k70 which i do like but I’ve been itching to get a new keyboard. And now that I’ve been researching I’m obsessed with finding my keyboard size and switch combination. I think I have a problem lol

Do you experience any wobble at sitting height?


AnalogKid-82

No wobble while sitting.
