If you are beginning your search for an electric sit-to-stand desk, the number of choices can be overwhelming. For the smart shopper who looks hard at a purchase before committing, we have video comparison reviews of our MojoDesk standing desk and other available options. Below are links to full reviews as well as our comparison chart that lines up specifications, price, and features of other brands side-by-side.
If you are considering a standing desk, these video reviews and comparison charts will help you decide what options are right for you. One of the key differences of MojoDesk is the quality and stability of our adjustable height frame. All MojoDesk models come standard with a commercial-grade frame that lifts over 250lbs. Unlike others, our bases are all dual-motor with 3-stage telescoping T-style legs for ultimate stablity and include an LED hand control with 4 height presets at no upcharge.
But before we get into more detail, here's a 60 second video about the importance of a sit-to-stand desk as part of overall work wellness.
MojoDesk vs. Vari

Ergonomic comfort during long sessions of work or gaming is top priority.

Besides VertDesk only available in one shape - rectangular - the parent company of VertDesk does not actually manufacture the VertDesk itself, instead working with a U.S.-based OEM manufacturer.

Our UL Greenguard Certification on all our desks tells you that the ENTIRE DESK, not just the laminate worksurface, has been independently tested and meet one of the most stringent chemical emission standards in the world. See our certificate HERE.
MojoDesk has been tested by independent labs and is certified to meet compliance standards for durability, stability and safety standards from BIFMA (Business and Institutional Furniture Manufacturers Association). Additionally, at our headquarters,we ran MojoDesk’s frame up/down for 20,000 cycles with 300lbs on the desktop to test its durability. Seriously, we did this. It took 3 months running 24 hours a day.
A tip prevention / motion detection sensor is a safety device that automatically stops the frame from moving by detecting a collision. It senses both a hard or soft surface.
