Check price on AmazonAffiliate link
Flexispot sells a long list of frames with similar names, and the model letters do not make the differences obvious. The real split is between single-motor and dual-motor frames, two-stage and three-stage legs, and whether the controller stores heights or just goes up and down. Those three things decide the height range, how much weight the desk will lift and how quickly you can switch between sitting and standing. This guide lines up six Flexispot options available on amazon.co.uk: four frames, a three-column frame and a complete desk with a top. The E7 and E5 frames many people search for were not in the listings available to us, so we cover them in our separate E7 vs E5 article instead. Figures below are from each listing; where Flexispot gives two different numbers, we flag it.
