This brand is expensive but would it means the metal are very heavy and won’t shake much when at full height?

I kind of like their light wood and seems like the power cord comes out from the leg of the table

This brand seen at it show but seems like a new product not sure can buy or not. They do have the hinge like the above model but their pricing for this desk seem reasonable.

this is also expensive like the first one but too much rgb not sure distracting or not if everyday on and doesn’t consume a lot electricity? The reviews seem good

This wood is very nice looks like the real thing but also not much reviews. The only downside is the cable management I think there is none but a beautiful piece of top





All in all. Need something that comes with good cable management and at least comes with a full length cable Mgt tray. I am leaning more towards dual motors as I tried those single motor it is very slow and the table shake quite a bit, plus there is a small tube at the corner of the table that makes it look very ugly

if 1.8m table.. will it sag easily?
thinking to do 2x 1.5 or 1.8 + 1.2 for a new place

a word of heavy caution to steer far far far away from ulti products

i bought one of their products and found a lot of defects

they may be cheaper than other brands but with price comes quality

What defects are u referring to. They seem to be highly rated. Just bought 2 arc pro desks with 2 more anti fatigue mats. :eek:

workmanship is poor

things like alignment, the finishing of the surfaces, etc. are bad

kind of like buying a table and u find that one of the legs is slightly shorter than the rest so it wobbles then u will catch my drift (im not saying i bought one of their tables)

it feels like there was no quality control and they just heck care anyhow approve and pass it out

here people complain prism sucks. i would say ulti also somewhere close

Which desk was that? I have a friend who bought their xtreme desk at it show. Surface is like omni and the leg is super heavy. Everyone was queueing up to buy.

Then they used to have an evolution desk which they didn’t displayed and I can no longer find - could it be this one with the issue?

Now they have this new Arc pro. Seems like a good deal.

prism doesn’t suck. I have good experiences with them. In fact most local brands. Monitor that died down got replaced quickly

The building I work in. All the workstations like standing desks n monitor stands are from them.

quality is good and I think they are more to b2b than b2c

One of the few companies that don’t engage influencers but very well known
