Love the video and enjoy your personality keep up the good work man!! Thanks for all you do and the great advice as always :) Might seem weird but I’d really like and appreciate if you can give advice on the iMac M1 VS a M1 MacBook Pro currently debating which to replace my 7 yr old laptop with for work obviously as the debate might suggest portability isn’t that huge for me personally
Saw so many reviews of standing desks but can’t find them in my country yet :) thx for the video! But can’t believe you didn’t get into account the stretch for when the desk was up, so funny. Can’t wait for your iMac review!
Hi Mark, I found your channel recently to look at a review for the AirPods Max. Since I have watched your videos about other products, and I need to get this out now.Keep doing what you are doing and how you are doing it, I genuinely love your style, down to earth and real life reviews, no too long, not too short, just right. Big compliment, I can totally rely on your reviews. Awesome work, best of luck for more subscribers. But please stay Mark Ellis :-)
@@MarkEllisReviews Thanks for the confirmation - they have £110 off at the mo for the E7 + there's 6.4% cashback via quidco. Now I just have to get to an Ikea for the desktop :D
Hi Mark. I am seriously considering getting the new iMac or the new Mac Mini M1, I have always wanted an iMac I love all the colours and the touch id on the Magic keyboard is an added bonus. I would love to see a video comparing the two machines, the pros and cons, the adjustments of the screen (does it give you neck ache), speed, noise etc. I currently have a late 2014 Mac Mini and I'm using it with a 6 month old 25" Dell QHD, IPS, 60 Hz monitor which has inputs on the back which I could make use of when the Mi Mac Mini is plugged into via USB-C rather than HDMI. I also have the magic keyboard, trackpad and mouse, the only thing I don't have is a decent webcam or microphone, but I just love the look of the iMac but the Mac Mini is the most sensible thing to go for!! Would be really helpful if Apple brought out a separate Magic Keyboard with touch id. Thanks. PS. I thought the new desk and set up was very interesting.
Hey Mark I'm new to your channel and enjoy your content. I really like your floor ring lamp. Can you share the name and where you purchased it from? Thanks!!
Thanks for the kind words. I don’t know the exact model, as I bought it quite some time ago, but it’s nothing more than a fairly low-cost Neewer ring lamp.
Brilliant! Now please explain to me, after I went and bought a new Mac Mini 16GB / 500GB, after your reviews, how on earth do I get to use a mic with it for Siri and other voice recording type usage? Sound out is fine of course. If you don’t have time to answer then thanks anyway for the videos. 🇬🇧
Love the review! Just ordered the same desk (black legs) myself. What size did you get please? I ordered the 120x60 and want to gauge how this compares to yours. Thanks!
Pity that i have way too much stuff for a standing desk to be an option for me I suppose the only real option would be to have two desks, and run a long USB cable from the KVM Switch to the standing desk, and a long HDMI cable from the AV Receiver to the standing desk (computers connect into the KVM switch, kvm switch connects into av receiver, av reciever connects to the monitors on both desks) Only problem is i wouldn’t be able to operate the KVM Switch from the keyboard on the standing desk
The vast majority of my audience is in the States, dude - that just seems to be how it's working out, although it'll be great to address that balance as the channel grows!
Hello bro, I have been a windows user for very long time and tired of the update window, pc problem. So, planned to change to mac air M1, my usage is light but sometimes I use 3d software like Etabs, staadpro, AutoCAD software. Most of which will work on windows platform, so I have planned to use either parallels os or bootcamp use the software for results when ever I needed it. So my question is, is it better to go with 16 gb ram or 8 gb is fine and also suggest me the memory storage option too bro. Or should I wait for nxt gen mac air
Literally every review of Flexispot on TH-cam starts with "They sent me this desk for free but this is an unbiased review". I wonder does anybody actually pay for these desks or perhaps you just need to setup a TH-cam channel! 😄
@@MarkEllisReviews I'm not sure, all the reviews where the desk was sent for free sing its praises and the only independent reviews talk about poor quality and wobble etc. The trouble is there's nowhere to try these out so you have to just take the plunge.
@@bt82 what I’ve found is that the ones that praise them have higher priced models than those that complain about wobble etc. I’ve spent hours researching these desks and the E7 like this one seem to have square legs whereas the cheaper ones have rectangular legs which in my opinion really are likely to wobble more. I’m about to order the E7 tomorrow after watching this review so fingers crossed 🤞
@@ScentedWithLee I bought the e7 legs and had a solid oak top made up separately. Overall I’m pretty pleased and there is no wobble, the desk is pretty stable even when raised. There was one quality issue during assembly, one of the welds cracked and came apart while tightening the bolts. Luckily it wasn’t anywhere critical or weight bearing and it hasn’t affected the desk. I think the desk is a good compromise for the price and I wouldn’t want to spend more.
That’s a bit harsh, mate. I’m all for constructive criticism, but if something doesn’t float your boat (which is absolutely fine, by the way), please illustrate your point with some respect.
@@MarkEllisReviews you need to stay on topic, you’re great on tech, don’t deviate you’ll lose your credibility, don’t sell yourself short to companies wanting to promote their products, that people have never heard of
This is a tech review, dude. And I review stuff I love and work with brands I love. My content won’t always be for you. Your reply above is slightly less abrasive, but please think before you type in future when replying to TH-cam videos. This stuff is damn hard and creators put a tonne of effort into their videos. Referring to my hard work as “trash” immediately discredits your advice.

@@andrewbaird753 Thank you so much, Andrew! And as for your conundrum - if portability isn't a thing, 100% get the iMac.
I'm at 2mins 34secs into the vid and it's getting a thumbs up already just for your reaction when you watched it move for the first time! 😂
Haha - thanks!
Just subscribed because of the quality content and voice. Keep it up man!
Thanks so much! I'll do exactly that 😉
Hi Mark, How wobbly it is. Sideways I mean. Have you experienced any? Appreciate the inputs.
I’ve been looking at the Flexispot E7 and you’ve just sold it to me 😁
I immediately subscribed to your podcast after you mentioned it because I thought your voice is so soothing to hear XD. Btw, nice setup!
That is very kind, Muhammed. We've taken a slight break from the podcast, but it'll return this Saturday!

That means an awful lot - thank you.
You said you put the size in the description!! and then you didn't :(
This is amazing! Plugable products are awesome
Thank you!
Enjoyed your organization and desk review; looking forward to the imac review as im considering it; also (ignore the trolls 😁the guys hassling you)
Thanks so much!
How's the lateral stability on it? Most Flexispot reviews are of the models below yours like the E5 and show a lot of it.
Seems good to me, Joe.
Great video as always! I need to step up my game and get to organizing my setup too.
Thank you, Greg! It's a never ending job, I'm afraid!
are the holes pre drilled for the desk?
Think I'm going to order this for a 183cm wide tabletop. Looks good!
Enjoy! I have two of these desks now - they’re great!
@@MarkEllisReviews Thanks for the confirmation - they have £110 off at the mo for the E7 + there's 6.4% cashback via quidco.

very useful thanks! how long are the 2 feet that touch the floor in cm?
I don't know if I should buy the e8 or e7. The only difference I can see is that the e8 legs are circular.

Thanks, Susan! I've already made a video comparing the two, but will definitely be digging into this more over the coming weeks/months!
Mark, can you tell us the thickness of the desk surface? 2cm, 3cm or what? This is a bamboo one?
Hey Mark I'm new to your channel and enjoy your content. I really like your floor ring lamp. Can you share the name and where you purchased it from? Thanks!!

Love the review! Just ordered the same desk (black legs) myself. What size did you get please? I ordered the 120x60 and want to gauge how this compares to yours. Thanks!
Thanks! I ordered whatever the largest size was :)
Hi Mark, can I attach a bigger desktop on it? Let's say a 150cm instead of the 120cm that comes with. Cheers
Flexispot offer some different sizes, but I'd contact them direct to be sure ;)
Hi Mark. 9 months later, how is this desk doing? Any issues? Motors stick working well?
Nope - good as new.
@@MarkEllisReviews any reason you went with the E7 over the E8?

Have you looked them up? They’re pretty popular. You’re not fussed about desks, mate (I’m not fussed about trains) - that’s cool. Each to their own.
