Flexispot E5 Standing Desk Frame (Black, Dual Motors, USB Ports)

What desktop sizes work with the E5 frame?

The E5 frame accommodates desktops between 120-180cm in length and 60-80cm in width. The frame's adjustable width mechanism ensures compatibility with most standard desktop configurations. You can use solid wood, laminate, or other desktop materials as long as they fall within these dimensions and don't exceed the 120kg weight limit.

How much weight can the desk support safely?

The E5 supports up to 120kg static load when stationary and 100kg dynamic load during height adjustments. This capacity easily handles multiple monitors, desktop computers, printers and heavy solid wood desktops. The dual-motor system maintains stability even at maximum load, ensuring smooth operation regardless of desktop weight.

Does the desk make noise when adjusting height?

The dual-motor system operates at whisper-quiet levels, producing minimal noise during height adjustments. The motors are specifically designed for office environments where noise reduction is important. Users report smooth, quiet operation that won't disturb colleagues or family members during transitions between sitting and standing positions.

How does the anti-collision system work?

Advanced sensors continuously monitor resistance during height adjustments. When the system detects an obstruction, it immediately stops movement and reverses slightly to prevent damage. This protects both the desk mechanism and any objects that might accidentally block the desk's path, such as chairs, drawers, or equipment underneath the workspace.

What's included with the desk frame?

The package includes the complete E5 standing desk frame with dual motors, LED control panel with USB ports, all mounting hardware and assembly instructions. The desktop surface is not included, allowing you to choose your preferred material and finish. All necessary brackets and screws for desktop attachment are provided in the package.

How difficult is assembly and do I need help?

Assembly typically takes 1-2 hours with basic tools. Whilst one person can complete the build, having a second person helps when positioning the frame and attaching heavier desktops. The frame itself weighs 20kg, so assistance is particularly useful when installing solid wood desktops or manoeuvring the assembled unit into position.

Can I use this frame with a custom desktop?

Yes, the E5 works excellently with custom desktops including solid wood, butcher block, or bespoke materials. One verified user successfully installed a 120cm x 60cm x 40mm solid oak desktop weighing considerably more than standard laminate surfaces. The frame's robust construction and high weight capacity make it ideal for premium desktop materials.

What height range does the desk adjust to?

The desk adjusts from 60cm to 125cm in height, providing a 65cm adjustment range. This accommodates users from approximately 150cm to 195cm tall in both sitting and standing positions. The 3-stage lifting mechanism ensures smooth transitions throughout the entire height range, with precise positioning at any point within these limits.
