The Ergonofis Shift is an incredible desk for nearly anyone. Ergonofis has included our favorite cable management system we have seen so far on this desk, along with an incredibly smooth and soft tabletop and a great control panel.★★★★½ You need high stability at taller heights:Our testing (and further research to confirm we weren't alone) shows that depending on the desk, there is a noticeable wobble at the peak heights or even tall individuals' standing height. If you are a shorter person, or don't plan on loading down this desk and using at max height, this won't bother you at all.

You want a desk with built-in storage:Flexispot offers storage accessories. However, nothing is built into the desks. Every storage accessory is an additional piece placed on or under the desk as desired. The longevity of a standing desk depends on the materials and quality used to construct it. Generally speaking, a good-quality option should last between five and ten years with regular use.

The E7 Pro Plus is large enough to hold quite a bit, while still being able to fit in most areas without feeling so large that it's unusable.

It’s quiet, works effectively, and looks great doing it. Controlling the Duo is also a nice experience. We’re used to seeing the familiar arrow-control panels. But like the Herman Miller (Fully) Jarvis, Branch has opted for a control paddle with a digital display. This OLED screen lets you precisely see your selected height (and even includes a little welcome message), while enabling two height presets - although we would've liked a few more here.

Value for money:The Flexispot E7 Pro Plus is a higher-end product - but that being said, thankfully, it's not so expensive that it is out of reach, and is a quality desk for the money.
