I ordered mine awhile back and then found this video and immediately began to worry. I received it yesterday, put it together today, and am immediately relieved that your review is horse shit/false (unless you received a defective product). Lol my Magnus Pro is fantastic.
It’s embarrassing when a company has to slander another company when they feel that’s the way to get a leg up on the competition. If your products are good enough you should let them do the talking. Not bad mouthing another company.
Have to agree. "Get drunk and dunk" isn't a smart marketing strategy; frat boys aren't buying $3k desks to jump on them. These guys need to hire a marketing company to not only pitch their product with professionalism, but do some damage control to their brand integrity.
If I was in charge of this company, I'd take this video down. It's beyond unprofessional to drunk post a bitter retaliatory video like this. On the other hand, the cynical part of me thinks it's a marketing ploy. lol
Maybe they believe the fallacy of "any publicity is good publicity"? They're going to find out the hard way that narcissistic smear campaigns usually backfire spectacularly.
Is this even at the extended height? Generally curious because I'm actively researching a solution. My previous amazon purchase was returned because just typing on it made the monitors wobble.
@@matthewbeigel7282 to be fair, I'm not tall. I am 5'7 and at the height I extend it to, it's fine. I'm also a very soft touch on the keyboard. I know that most people smash their keys so if you type like that, the desk will have some wobble (any desk would). The combination of having a standing desk at a great height AND being a heavy typer is a perfect recipe for desk wobble. You probably need to try a few in person before committing to one.
I'm always very impressed by the sturdiness. It'll be cool to see the how much the competition shakes from just typing on a keyboard. Even slight wobble gets super annoying while trying to read and type.
even if he was actually 100% right, no way i'm ever buying anything from such a vindicative person ... i have competitors in my job too, and they aren't amazing, but crapping on them in public or to my customers is a BIG no-no!
I got my Magnus Pro some weeks ago, and it is as sturdy as the second desk you showed... I have no idea what you are doing with yours, but definitely it is either faulty or you have destroy it or tampered with it to look like that... It is the best desk I have ever bought...
@@Deskhaus I honestly don't need to, it is exactly like this video, does not move an inch compared to your video, not sure what has your desk wrong: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-UpnfTg7EhDA.html&ab_channel=ShortCircuit
@Deskhaus You keep asking people to post videos of their desks when they dispute your claims. Do they have to drink alcohol while they're doing it? Also, why should they bother posting a video at all? Do you not trust them? Not everyone has the time to make long review videos of sit stands. They're too busy working LOL
There would be a conflict on interest here so, it makes sense for people to be suspicious, but does it really actually wobble that much? Like absolutely 100% no double that deskhaus is studier, i would get one if i could but you don't sell in Australia. But the secret lab wobble seems to be on par with my ~$300 dollar cheapest i could find standing desk, and they have a 3 stage legs. (mine has 2) is it really configured properly? What height were you it at when you were testing the wobble?
Let me just point out that what he is talking about is the wobble/stability level at the tallest points these desks can reach (see when he compares the heights). I've seen his other videos and he mentions that these desks are very stable so long as you use them at the short/shortest heights possible. He even recommends some other models. However, the point of a standing desk is for it to be fully functional at standing height. This is the biggest "hurdle" for all standing desks as the higher you extend the desk, the less stable it becomes (as you can see on this video and many others). If you're not going to use your standing desk while---well, standing, then you should have no problems even with a Magnus desk.
Would you consider an L shaped desk? I don't see one on your site. That's really the big thing for me that few seem to have. So far I've only found Secretlab and Uplift in that regard
Loosening bolts, putting it on an uneven floor, not properly adjusting the feet, etc. - very easy to fake this. You conveniently don't show the legs when you push the desk and the next video "miraculously" has far less wobble. Not the thing that inspires confidence in a company that makes desks if they can't even properly assemble another desk ...
Even if this was the better product, dollar for dollar, I'm going to stay away from the company based on how this guy conducts his business and interacts with criticism. It's like he's the 'nice guy' equivalent of desk companies. "I don't know why girls always go for this wobbly jerk when I'm so much better than him?"
Yea, he most likely did something shady. Got the desk myself. It's stable like a rock. Leaning, rocking, etc it stayed still. Only has a monitor on it so far. And I'm not against calling companies out. Companies can be shitty. So this guy proves it lol. Shits on other companies to advert his own.
Just built one myself, and I don't see how you could possibly make it rock like this considering the parts have machined guide pegs and slots into the parts before you screw everything together that make it pretty much impossible to have this much wiggle room. Also the fact that it weighs nearly a hundred pounds, it'd take a ton of force to move it like that.
I have no idea if he didn't tighten the screw as is suggested by some. What I know is his chair is just as expensive and doesn't have shipping to Europe so I'm going with secret labs
just so you know guys, I have my magnus with me for couple months already. It doesn’t shake as in the video at all. Honestly even on the highest level I cant get such wobbling. Also I should mention I have it on carpet which should be even worse but its still more stable then he shows. It wobbles a bit on the highest settings but still much much less then in the video. I will never ever buy from Deskhous because of this shady strategy.
I mean, you reaaaaally should've show proof that the desk is properly level and that everything is properly tightened up. As a competitor you immediatly are sus to just shit on something cus its not yours, and the posture and overall tone of the video feels an awful lot like butthurt and bruised ego. Not defending secretlab, never bought anything from them, but knowing desks, that ammount of give and wobble is not normal for ANY non crappy throw out school desk that you found on a landfill.
This Secretlab desk costs $949 and your desk (w/ 4 legs) costs $2700. Why not comparing it to your 2 leg desk, that costs $1250, has NO cable management AND is smaller 🤣
@@Deskhaus out of stock (good for you) but in the market for a desk and following the hilarious rabbit hole down to the reddit thread where you defended this video leaves me feeling mixed :) nice desks
@@Deskhaus weird. just checked again. the original comment was correct. shit its 1400 just for your 4 leg frame without a desk top, and that IF its ever in in stock. So he's right, you are comparing a $2.5k+ desk with a $1200 desk. And also a comparing a 4 leg sit/stand desk to a 2 leg sit/stand desk. Is it really not obvious to anyone that doesnt wear a helmet that a 4 leg desk is going to be more sturdy?
@@Deskhaus just checked again. first check i was only seeing the vertex, saw the apex this time. so I'll give you that on the base. and thats IF you are actually even using the apex and not the vertex in this video. but its $245 for shitty laminate top. who wants that? metal or wood or nothing. so to do the math for you "bud", its $1919 at the cheapest for the same size, if you dont want shitty materials like laminate.
I’d rather have all the other features than be able to jump up and down on a desk. I’ll probably never leave the desk at standing height anyway unless I’m coming back soon.
They are both ~$1000. So yes it’s comparable. And for reference. Fully Jarvis, Uplift V2, btod vertdesk all have excellent stability for a two leg that blow the secretlab desk out of the water.
Just found this video after putting my Magnus Pro XL together just yesterday, appears you either didn't tighten all your bolts and screws or you've made this video just to hate on a brand. Not sure about the rest of their products, but Magnus has produced a damn fine desk and it is sturdy AF. You can tell they researched everything and delivered. Sure i may be surprised a year from now, but so far I have to say they've really crushed it!
Can’t wait to put my order in for one was going to go with uplift but I’ll pay a little more for a 20 year warranty and a 4 leg design. My drawing tablet weights 62lbs by itself and I have bought a standing desk yet for fear of it falling or collapsing and destroying my tablet.
It's not as bad as it is in the video? I expect all to wobble a bit at height but this looks ridiculously bad. I almost wonder if the bolts are tightened.
I got the Magnus Pro and assembled it. IT'S NOT WOBBLING much AT ALL at standing height. I'm 6'2'' and I have 2 monitors set up on arms (ergotron dual). There's enough space for the arm and the lid closes. I have a mic stand on the side. Why am I talking about the Secretlab Magnus on a Deskhaus channel? Oh, wait...coz you did, Heineken boy.
Was the monitor pretty stable to? Desk had limited wobble but how about monitors? Going to buy a magnus PRO XL soon myself haha. I'm surprised nobody mentioned the fact that @Deskhaus is comparing to a 4 leg desk vs. the 2 leg magnus. Like of course it will be more unstable if its balanced at the center of the desk and not 1st/3rd quarter like a 4 leg one is.
@@dougb6216 - I have a 32 inch Alienware monitor, which is very heavy. It's mounted on an Ergotron dual monitor, which is a high pole. At this moment, now while typing and as the desk is fully extended, the heaviest monitor wobbles a bit. I can't say I notice, unless I pay attention to it. I don't mind the slight wobble at all, really. It's barely noticable, and the pros of the desk overcome the cons. I'd say it's definately worth it.
Great, so now that we know you make better, sturdier tables, and you know what features people want on their desks thanks to the Magnus Pro (XL), build one so we can buy that!
I haven't experienced any stability issues with my secret labs desk but that's probably because I'm not standing on it and jumping up and down on it like a lunatic lol it's almost like it wasn't built to be a surf board 🤔
And I just got the Magnus Pro desk and it's amazing !!! Please don't listen to the guy in this video if you want a secretlabs desk get one as they are high quality desks one negative is the price 🤣🤣 but you get what you pay for and that is quality
@deskhaus doesn’t get invited to parties. They sit outside the house and jump on their desks to get a good look at what they’re missing out on. Hence this video.
hold up. Why are you asking him to do that. Why don't you make one with your secretlab magnus pro desk ? You have one right? Make a video with your phone and proof him wrong.
@@WuW0w0-m8m can you link some with an actual wobble test? So far I've only found people mentioning that it's not wobbly but they don't test it and show that.
Seen several Magnus Pro XL and they do not wobble like this video shows. Seems to be a Deskhaus employee had one to many beers and made this ridiculous video. Not to mention he is comparing 2 different styles of desk. Try comparing the Detroit and Rockford desk and also prove they are both fully levelled.
@@Deskhausjust saw that. Still not buying the vid. I have seen 3 of the PRO XL and all where very sturdy. Maybe it just the smaller PRO one has the wobble when up at the unusable height
I don't own either of these products, but even I can see the copium from this guy. 1. The monitor test is pointless given how loose the mount arm clearly is on the first one. 2. Obviously a 4 leg desk is going to be more structural when compared to a 2 leg desk.
You are comparing 2 legs with 4 legs, kind of different class. I have dining 4 legs table which I sometimes use to reach calling, and I have 2 legs my office desk which I never use for that purpose. Kind of logical, 2 vs 4 point of contact. Basic Physics. Are they at last similar in price or are the motors as quite? Give me more information than jumping over 2 totally different desks in construction.
Beyond the fact that the person in the video is drunk and slurring, you need to reshoot the video showing us the legs and where you placed them to get that level of wobble. You never *once* show the legs other than in the quick pan around to show where they are placed.
The only thing i have to note here is that I’m pretty sure there were two different monitor arms used (first the ergotron lx and on the deskhaus desk an ergotron hx) which are not providing the same amount of stability.. it’s doesn’t discredit the overall comparison but making a comparison between monitor wobble while not using the same setup is wrong imo Edit: Both are LX versions, I take it back
With a little bit of advertising I probably would have bought your desk. However, I only just saw this video and my SL desk shows up on Monday. I will want to see where the wobble comes from on this desk to see if it is fixable. Also, you seem to be out of the larger sized desks, which is what I need.
Got the desk built this afternoon. All is fine with it. Minor movement, but honestly no more than my old stationary desk. The screws that are used seem a little small, but at least for now they are holding up.
@@Deskhaus Why would I post a video? You are a troll my dude and I have nothing to prove to you. I have the XL version of this desk, with 3 monitors on it and 2 elgato keylights and this damn thing is as sturdy as a rock.
My Secret Lab Magnus Pro desks (1 large, 1 regular) do in fact wiggle a little bit in the front to back motion that you are shaking it in. And it has been a problem exactly zero times. If I need the ability to start standing on my desk (?) or vigorously shaking it from front to back, then I will consider your desks again. Until then, I'm really happy with my Secret Lab desks! Secret Lab...the desk all other companies compare themselves to. Your company could learn a thing or two from them.
Stumbled Upon your video while looking at the Magnus Pro. I want to preface this by first saying I have no idea who you are. While watching the video the wobble of the Secretlabs is definitely concerning, and i will be delaying my purchase of it for a few days until I can look further into it. My criticism of your video is you dont show the legs at all and are touting a competitor product (of yours?) which has me skeptical. My recommendations if doing a video criticizing stability, you should really be showing it off at multiple heights and showing that and showing that the legs are all in contact with the ground. also where does the wiggle occur? is it unstable legs? poor contact with the ground? just a frame that isnt rigid enough to hold the top? Hell it could even be an uneven concrete floor.
I have stressed on choosing a good sit-stand desk for about two weeks now. Couln't decide what I'd like to get. I saw this really dumb video as well, kind of discouraged me tbh, because of all the wobbling. Then I tried my 4 legged desk(simple desk, nothing special about it), and damn, it wobbling like crazy. I couldn't believe it. Then I realised that you don't really notice all the wobbling, because why would you? You can write or draw on a train or a bus too. Of course, it is better if it doesn't wobble, but it is highly ovverrated in my opinion. My Magnus Pro arrives next week, let's hope for the best. Also, Deskhaus wasn't even an option for me, because I live in Europe, so I am fully unbiased here. Only calling the video dumb, because the way this guy behaves and he obviously did something wrong to that desk, no way it can just be shook like that, but again, I'll post updates for those are curious in a short while.
@@DopeyDragon117 Ooh, yea man, totally forgot. So the desk is amazing! It is solid as a rock, doesn't wobble, doesn't move at all. This video is bs, just as I thought. Very quiet engine, precise with height. The cable management is awesome too, my desks have never been cleaner. Magnetic cable holders are a must, so cool that you can fix your cables anywhere. Minor con is the monitor arm, that didn't fit the desk exactly, I put a bit of paper underneath it and now that is perfect too. You can't see it or anything, so it was easy to fix. Delivery took about 2 weeks, 1 day delay with mine. All in all a 10/10 desk imo.
I love how you think everyone uses their computer desks as jungle gyms😂😂 No right minded person is that rough on a desk that has expensive ass electronics on it.
Tighten all the bolts i dont personally own one but a coworker does and showed him this video and he laughed because his is perfect with 2 monitors attached to it
What the hell, you jumping on it was impressive....sturdy ass desk right there. Also, I am usually not bullying my desk either. I am not going to wrestle it, just work on it.
Any properly-leveled 4-leg desk is going to be way more solid than a 2-leg frame, especially at the max height, because the 2 legs will flex. If you want to demonsrate the superiority of your build qualty, do an apples-to-apples, similar-price-point comparison by jumping on one of your Vertex 2-leg desks set to the same height as the Magnus, and do it at sitting and standing heights (use same table-top heights for both brands).
Yours must be defective, altered, or your floor is not level. I've had my Secretlab Magnus Pro XL for a year now and have had no issues. At max height it is incredibly sturdy. I'm far from a Secretlab fan boy; their chairs are okay for the price, but I despised the first Magnus desk. No complaints about the Magnus Pro, other than the fact that I wish I could have a wood desktop rather than this leatherette that collects dust much too easily... Typed this comment as I watched the video. After seeing you demonstrate your desk, I have a question... why not film the desks from the same perspective and in the same spot? Just makes me think that the floor where you filmed the Secretlab desk is, in fact, not level.
Check out the other videos where I show it leveled. But screw that. Just post a video and prove yours is sturdy at max height. Oddly everyone that comments exactly what you did can’t seem to make a video.
Funny, cause I watch a streamer (not gonna name them for their sake) that has a deskhaus and absolutely hates it. Says pretty much the same things about his deskhaus as you do about the secretlab. Regrets spending the money for your desk. Weird how that works.
Got my Magnus a few weeks ago and it’s feeling very sturdy and safe… 🤷🏼♂️ Yet I was worried since I’ve seen this video after ordering it, but I’m super happy with it and would buy it again :)
My favorite thing about the youtubers who put out these videos nitpicking these desks they've clearly imbalanced or something is that 100% of them have the worst audio balancing ive ever heard in a video. Honestly the fact that it even stood up to your literally jumping on it impressed the shit out of me lol.
Bro, your completely ignoring aesthetics. Stability is important, however aesthetics and functionality are equally important. Deskhaus wins every time with stability and by being built in the United States. However Magnus has you beat with sleek aesthetics , functional cable management, magnetic practicality and price. The Magnus won't wobble nearly that much if you place it flush against the wall. Placing it against the wall is how 99.9% of us will use our desks. That being said, I think I earned the 10g's on a technicality. By showcasing desks away from the wall , you are manipulating the viewer by highlighting your desks stability against others in a scenario that is impractical and favors your product.
Interesting video. As a taller person I have heard some pretty negative things about the standing feature at extended heights. It's quite alarming that there's such an issue with wobble. Still continuing my search, I suppose.
Dude, its a 2 legged desk, theres gonna be some instability, especially when its at its max height. Sure i understand you got a product to sell but this is not the way to do it.

Seems like you’re just another scam with a shit product to me.
Build mine yesterday. I have to say you assembly skills might be lower than average because mine is totally stable. nothing compared of what you showed. Maybe you didnt saw the several "screw the fastensers" in the manual and thats why..
DESKHAUS: "HERRRR DURRRR POST A VIDEO HER DURRRRRRRR" he will continue to ignore the video ive linked him in multiple times that shows hes a full blown liar... desk haus intern is then going to crawl back into the hole they were birthed from until next work cycle. rinse repeat. perhaps even post a profit margin imgur pic that shows a 3% discount in sales YOY and continue to jump on desks thinking its an actual proper metric for discerning a good desk. ive tried to have an actual dialogue with deskhaus on youtube but that was my intital mistake. i understand you are tongue in cheek wrt to advertisement but blatant misreprenstation and lying just makes you all a bunch of scumags, then running away from any proof of your lying makes you cowards.
