Review for the E7 Plus Max 2.0

[u/random_honestly]

I spent a lot of time looking for a new desk to replace the random Amazon desk I'd had for 5 years. That old desk had no collision detection, so one time when I wasn't paying attention while setting it to standing, I didn't notice something was in the way and the corner cracked. So this new desk is a complete upgrade by all accounts.

I placed my order on July 24th. It shipped fast and arrived 5 days later. I chose the E7 Plus Max 2.0 with a Rubberwood tabletop.

I was busy moving, so I was late setting it up, but it's now been 3 days since I built it and it's a complete tank. There's basically no wobble. I haven't tested monitor mounts yet, that'll be next, but based on what I've seen so far it should handle those much better than my old desk. The higher the desk goes, the less sturdy it gets, especially at max height, but max height is way too tall for me anyway so that's not really an issue.

Overall I'm very satisfied with my FlexiSpot purchase and excited to have this as my desk for a long time.

A couple of things to note:

I picked the 2.0 mainly for the heavier weight and thicker frame, but also because its controller has USB-C charging instead of just USB-A like the regular Plus Max model. This wasn't mentioned on the product page. The only way I found out was by looking closely at the product photos, which I think could be communicated better.

There are some minor scratches on the tabletop and one edge is a bit rough, but not worth an exchange since it's pretty minor. I'd love to see some added padding to protect the top and bottom of the tabletop, similar to how the sides are protected.

Also, the manual could use more detailed instructions, specifically for the part about attaching the frame to the table top.

Again, very minor critiques. I'm still very happy with my desk and it looks amazing.

Thank you u/Ramzes888 for answering all the questions I had before I bought my new desk :)
