I’ve been having back pain from long sessions of sitting, so I need a standing desk. As a gamer who mostly plays Geometry Dash (meaning I’ll be tapping quite hard on the desk) will the Peak 2 leg be stable enough for me at standing height? Also, what height do you think I will likely be using the desk at, since that also influences how stable it will be? I genuinely have no idea, so if anyone around 5’10” -5’11” could tell me what height they use their desk at, that’d be helpful.

Hi everyone. I’ve come to the conclusion that the Peak Pro is the best option for quality and stability for my standing desk. I plan on placing some computer speakers, a Samsung 49” OLED ultra wide, laptop, mechanical keyboard, and a docking station on the top.

With that said, I’m also trying to keep the budget around $850 for the Peak Pro and a 55x28” top. Does anyone have some decent top options that don’t cost $300+ and will still look good with the Peak Pro? If I needed a 60x30” top, I would definitely go with the rubber wood option but trying to reduce my existing 60x30” footprint to make more room in my home office.

Thanks in advance. Also, thank you Deskhaus for making a quality product at a reasonable price while also being transparent on price differences over time.

I currently own an Apex Pro Frame & HPL top. I am moving across the country and unfortunately I am liquidating most of my belongings, so not packing up a car or moving truck. I really enjoy my Apex Pro Frame and would like to ship it to my new home. I looked into shipping the HPL frame, but it seems more cost effective to just order a new one. Anyone have any suggestions for how to package an Apex Pro frame? Unsure of what kind of box I should buy, the carrier and how to actually fill up each package.

Good day,

I will be making my floor desk with a 60 by 30 rubberwood desk top. I am looking at feet I can attach myself at the 10-12 inch range depending on what would work best for my torso and floor sitting level.

I have been looking at feet via both amazon and etsy for context. Here are a few options below of what I have been looking at and I wanted to get input from those who have done this and suggestions since my top will be 60 by 30. I am trying to decide if I get single legs should they be 2 or 3 inches in diameter? I appreciate those that have tackled this for input and others who may know of other options as well. I suppose I would do the four corners but then wondered if for stability I should do the four corners and the back middle.

Hello. I have a question re: combability of DH tops with non-DH bases.

I have been eyeing a DH desk for years. I need a desk that travels about 6" lower in the bottom range, so I will need to go with a different base---but I'd still like to explore a DH top (which I think are beautiful). I understand the DH tops come with threaded inserts installed (which would be very helpful if I were using a DH base!).

My question is basically--how bad of an idea is that? I can be more specific about the base manufacturer if helpful (it's probably pretty obvious because not that many people have this functionality). I am just worried that I'll purchase this quality top and then completely compromise its integrity by drilling new holes, etc. to fit it to a different base.

Thank you!
