Shopping for a new sit-to-stand gaming or work desk? Price is important, but so is value—you don’t want to waste your money on a height-adjustable desk that’s lacking in safety, durability or comfort. At MojoDesk, we routinely compare sit-stand desks against our MojoDesk Solo to help desk enthusiasts choose wisely among the myriad options.
In this article, we have two models we are compariing. In the video below, we compare the Evodesk Ergo Edge (color: Carbon Black) standing desk vs the MojoDesk Organic Curve (color: Matte Lux Black) electric sit-stand desk with a full review of worksurface, stability, features, stability, and cost. For full specs, please see the notes in the YouTube video.
Additionally, we have a spec chart and more details between the Evodesk electric standing desk and the MojoDesk Solo Cube—and the findings may surprise you. Read here for comparisons of MojoDesk vs. other brands of sit-stand desks.
Let's start with issues of safety and health: two critical factors when researching a high-quality gaming desk.
ANSI and BIFMA are industry benchmarks to certify that office furniture is designed and tested to high standards of quality, ergonomics and durability. Office products that pass muster are typically marked as “ANSI/BIFMA certified.” Most retail sites that sell consumer-grade desks (Amazon, IKEA) avoid this testing, as they assume buyers don’t care. MojoDesk begs to differ! Our desks are not only ANSI/BIFM certified; our founder Dave Carson was on the ANSI board that created those standards!
Nowhere in its product information does Evodesk make any mention of standards or testing; instead, it offers “functional ergonomics” as an “innovative option” to make your power electric desk “even better.” Wait, what? With no mention of certification for ergonomics and quality, we’re scratching our heads at how Evodesk can promote itself as “the Lamborghini of standing desks.”
All MojoDesk models come standard with a programmable hand control with four pre-sets and LED display. The Evodesk offers this as a $59 upgrade.
Many office and household products emit volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Greenguard certifies the VOC safety of products, and MojoDesk has that stamp of approval, from the top of the desk to the bottom. While Evodesk calls its sit-to-stand desktops “sustainable and real,” there are two glaring issues:
The Evodesk’s claim of “VOC-free finishing,” on its desktop only, without any testing by a governing body, can be a deal-breaker for health-conscious (earth-friendly) gamers and users.
MojoDesk offers a 60-day no-risk trial for all standing desks and pays for return shipping. Evodesk allows customers to return its product within 30 days; however, the customer must pay for return shipping and initial installation.
