The setup is clean, and imo there's no better standing desk on the market that has all of the accessories/cable management that this one has. i am 6'5 and even at the level i have to take it to in order for me to stand, it doesn't wobble at all unless i use my hulk super-strength to push it lol. You're a real one for giving a + review against a competitor, I appreciate that!

In 2023 and 2024's Black Friday Secretlab deals, we saw both the Magnus and the Magnus Pro come down in price, so it would stand to reason that in 2025, we see the same from the brand's desk range. As a part of the brand's Black Friday Now initiative, one version of the Magnus Pro is already seeing a discount, and it's included in a few bundle offerings.

I have done a lot of research before buying the Magnus Pro XL and for me it is currently by far the best computer desk you can get if you want clear cable management, high material quality and building quality. I just love it. Especially the small mangets for cabelmagamet if you have a lot of USB-C cabels for loading some stuff is excellent.

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, Corona boy.

I still stand by everything I said. The steel frame is as sturdy today as it was when first assembled. The all-over magnetic top is sleek, and it comes in handy when adding on some of Secretlab’s (pricy) accessories. The motor hums to life without pause, and the legs extend and retract in one smooth motion.

The Secretlab Magnus Pro XL takes everything that worked with the original model and innovates on it in new and impressive ways. Boasting a new sit-to-stand feature, an increased tabletop size, and even a power delivery column, if money is no object then this is the definitive high-end gaming desk to beat.

So, had a lot of conversations with Cam about his Uplift desk and looked heavily into that one. Um, this is not a cheap desk by any means, but I think some of the features on it seem to be really good. Um, I like having the built-in motorized uh panel for the motor. Um, it's nice and sleek in the desk. It's got interchangeable desk pads on the top. Um, so you can change that out if you get bored.

I wanted to share with the community here about my experience with Secret labs evo desks. I have a back issue so I opted for the paid assembly service, carried out in the UK by BJS. It was clear shortly after they arrived that the crew had no idea how to assemble the desk - the legs went on the wrong way, the foam was not left on the desk or under neath it without my prompting.

I may get one of the chair sleeves to turn my chair into Gundam theme for awhile, will end up doubling as protection as well!

I love all of secretlabs products. They are a bit overpriced in all honesty, support is absolute garbage. Best product? Desk and accessories. Worst product, the chairs. I should not be hurting after sitting down in a chair after x amount time, and it's not because of posture, because any other chair does not give me this pain.

It’s an expensive desk though, and for the money, it would have been nice to see a smarter safety mechanism for the motors and the desk mat included. Still, the overall quality you get is a big step up from cheaper standing desks, and the optional accessories truly enhance the experience.

I would say that the wobble is comparable to other tables. So, no concern for me. Second test, the handshake. For this test, we will be intentionally shaking the table. As you can see, after vigorous shaking on the right hand side at a height of 76.4 cm, it is very stable. However, at a 1:1 cm height, you can see that it's actually swaying a bit more, which is to me kind of expected.

Frequently asked questions

It ranks #2 (A tier) on our consolidated gaming desks board, drawn from 77 cited sources across 53 outlets.

Slightly smaller footprint.

Anyone who wants the all-metal build and ergonomic design of the top pick in a room where the larger desk will not fit. GamesRadar named it the best gaming desk on the market, and it sits in A tier at rank 2 on our Gaming Desks board. Its generous workspace, solid construction and built-in power strip cover a two-monitor PC setup well. If you run three monitors or want the biggest surface, the Secretlab Magnus Pro XL in S tier is the better buy.

Its all-metal construction is the feature reviewers praise most, and the original Secretlab Magnus, which shares that frame design, has owners reporting many years of use without failure. The only con the board records is the smaller footprint, with no reports of wear, wobble or faults. Expect it to last as long as any desk on our board.

Yes. Reviewers credit it with a generous workspace, and its one con is only that the footprint is smaller than the Secretlab Magnus Pro XL. Two 27 inch monitors side by side need roughly 120 cm of width, which is well within a standard desk of this class. For a triple monitor layout the Secretlab Magnus Pro XL is the safer choice.

Yes, a built-in power strip is one of the five pros reviewers list for it, alongside its all-metal construction and ergonomic design. It means a single cable runs from the desk to the wall and monitors, PC and chargers plug in under the surface. The original Secretlab Magnus lacks this, which is one reason it sits in D tier while the Pro sits in A tier.

Buy the Secretlab Magnus Pro. Reviewers describe the Secretlab Magnus Evo as having a similar feature set to the Pro but at a higher cost, with less modularity and fewer colour options, and it sits in D tier on our board against the Pro in A tier. The Evo has strong community feedback and a large surface, but nothing the board records that the Pro does not already offer.
