Our Verdict

The FlexiSpot E9 delivers excellent value with its robust build quality, smooth operation and programmable features. The desk’s dual-motor system means that height adjustments are quick and the build quality feels strong and sturdy. There is also plenty of workspace if you like to stretch out or have multiple projects on the go at once. It is heavy so it does need two people to be able to put it together but once it’s set up it’s easy to move around. This desk also comes with plenty of customisable options when it comes to desktop and leg colours so you can match it to your decor and taste.

For

  • Excellent build quality
  • Ideal for taller users
  • Anti-collision function
  • Easy to assemble

Against

  • Very heavy
  • Can be expensive depending on custom choices
