Can someone explain how or why these are any better than a Jarvis despite being $100+ more expensive? I'm in the market and don't really see any major differences.


I own one of each. They are very similar, and use the same motors & control boxes.

Jarvis upcharges for "extended range", uplift has that by default. Uplift also has a little bit more reinforcing that makes it less prone to side-to-side sway. But only just barely. Not anything that would make me buy one over the other.

We have one of each purely for aesthetics. Uplift had what I was looking for, and jarvis had what my partner was looking for.


They are the same. Exactly. If you dig down into it, all the standing desk companies (that have that 4 position controller) are just putting their own branding and desk tops on top of the exact same motor and controller.
