    If you want more detailed information on height adjustable desks, I have a spreadsheet that compares specs on over 80 different models available on the market. If doesn't have everything but it does cover the majors.

    Ordered my wife the Prime cables dual-motor setup w/ the Ikea table top. It's great and doesn't wobble on carpet.

    +1 on the primecables dual motor. I've been running it for almost a year and it's been great.

    I think I'll place an order for the Prime Cables one today based on the feedback here. Maybe I'll do an epoxy river table top because #covidlyfe

    I see you are in the petroleum jelly business too. How is that treating you?

    So I got the Prime Cables desk put together finally with the Ikea Idasen desk. I also threw on a 12 outlet surge protector just to help clean things up a bit.

    My first impression is that the box was heavy as all fuck. When I finally cut into it I realized everything was pretty heavy duty steel so its solid. Having a motor in each leg seems to work pretty great so far and they are super smooth. I especially like that it seems to accelerate and decelerate. The three button memory feature is slick so far as well. Its really easy to adjust the overall width of the desk and the frame has build in cable management that took care of about 90% of my dangling cables.

    I've got two older 24" monitors on my desk and there is definitely a little shaky as compared to my previous solid wood desk but id pin that on the fact that I have a 31" wide table on two legs and I'm a keyboard smasher.

    All in all I am pretty happy with it.

    Heads up that I've heard it's severely backordered, relative ordered it two weeks ago when it said that it was in stock and would be three day shipping, they got told that the shipment wouldn't come until the 9th. Not sure if that's still the case.

    Desk shake is a deal-killer for me.
