Great video! thanks for the detailed review, and we're glad the cable management tray has worked perfectly with your setup. We also appreciate the feedback with some of the things we can improve with the MAGNUS Pro - we'll relay this with our Product team to note on how we can further work to fulfill more needs from our desk users. Cheers Fracno!

@@LockhartTx I'm also considering this desk, but I also have issues with their monitor arm. My G9's 49" & 12kg are both far above the arm's 34" & 8kg limit. And their PC mount is too small for a H500 case. Those are deal-breakers for me. I contacted their support to see if they has something on their roadmap to fix both issues or if they could recommend a competing arm that's compatible (ie. fits the cable tray opening like theirs). Waiting to hear from them.

Hey @Secretlabchairs! Perhaps you can actually provide a phone number to your customers so they can troubleshoot a desk that did not work out of the box? Folks, if you are considering this desk, please be aware that customer service is extremely limited, and they will make it very hard to leave a review on their website.

For those using their monitor arms on the desk and are concerned about putting it on with the minimum space because of the cable management lid, you can very easily unscrew the lid and put it back on after you attach your monitor arms. There is tons of space and it is super easy to take the lid off and put back on. Just 4 screws.

⁠@@Captain-Chatsyou can use any monitor arm with a clamp it’s just easier with the secret labs arms because it screws the clamp tight from the top. To be able to put others that clamp from the bottom on easily, have the cable management lid screwed off and attach it before you put any power brick or even cable management down. It really isn’t hard. I have both secret lab dual monitor arms and dell’s dual monitor arms, which I both used on the desk at some point.

What blows my mind is how these two companies have the support leg thicknesses in reverse compared to others. This has been shown to be one of the major key factors in that extra wobble. The frames w/ the 3 stage support beams w/ the thicker legs that reduce to the smaller ones are just better.

The entire goal of a UPS is to provide surge protection and a backup battery so that you can shut everything off before it dies. As long as you aren't coupling another surge protector in, you are allowed to use a power STRIP in the cable management tray and plug the power of the desk into the ups to keep the entire operation running with one cable! Feel like this is most useful if you have any short cables, though.

So I have the exact same desk, and I'm not sure if anyone else has mentioned this, but the Secretlab Magnus Pro isn't exactly "all metal"; that part's a little misleading. It's really a sheet of steel veneer on top of MDF material. You'll be able to see that if you look under the desk, as the metal wraps around just under the edges. I was originally a bit concerned with the desk weight since I thought it was all metal, but using MDF makes sense to keep the desk from being ridiculously heavy and expensive. And it's still pretty durable material. It's at least relatively safe to get the top surface wet, and unlikely people will soak the bottom of it. It does also mean you can't really mount things magnetically under the desk though.

I've got a magnus pro xl. I've got triple monitors two pcs on the pc mounts and a stack of accessories on the desk like headphones and speakers and stuff. It's a awesome desk no two ways about it. I find the cable tray could be half again in size bigger and those cable routing clips on the monitors have caused me massive grief with the amount of cables I'm running (if I move my monitor they click out of place and hang down) for someone with less stuff I reckon u wouldnt have any issues. I'm 186cm tall and I have no issues with monitor height on the monitor stands. I'm using triple 27inch monitors and they can go uncomfortably high so I'm not sure how high this guy wants them or how tall he is but thier going to be fine for the majority of people. Desk is wobbly at full stand height but not unusable by any means. I'm finding keeping the leather desk matt dust and cat hair free to be one of the biggest issues as dust tends to stick to it

Relying solely on a UPS in my opinion is just stupid if your truly worried about protecting your technology. While a UPS protects it, it'll ultimately over time lead to some minor damage to add up over time which can cause system failures with your tech. The surge protector takes the brunt of of the damage then the UPS for the remaining that gets past the surge protector.

Like to add my too cents to this review. I myself have a Magnus Pro XL, in my case I have a custom monitor stand that when clamped can fit onto the desk and within the tray, the only downsides are when it comes to tightening the clamp, as it a little finicky with the tight space, but its all possible. Franco makes mention about drilling into the desk, so the desk itself is a mixture of both sheet metal (sand blasted black) & MDF, with the metal covering all sides, but these can be removed by unscrewing the skills off the deskframe. I currently use mine without the metal sheeting as I intend to make my own custom desk table, and purely wanted the frame. Also if you wanted to do any mods like use a logitech powerplay mat without seeing the mat (e.g. inside of the desk or wireless charging then you can't do any of these with the top layer of metal sheeting.

Good question! No, they’re different. A surge protector will protect electronics from spikes/surges in electricity so you don’t fry your stuff. However, some of them aren’t well made and your stuff may still be at risk. Also, you have to consider ALL sources going into your computer. A friend of mine fried his GPU in a thunderstorm even though he was using a surge protector. Reason being, his Ethernet cable wasn’t going through the SP. A UPS has the same functionality as a surge protector, but it’s also a giant battery. If your power goes out, your computer won’t shut down for X number of minutes. Bigger the UPS, the more time you have.

Hey Fracno! Any advice on how to get Secretlab to actually address a defective desk? We have had this desk for the past 10 days and cannot get anyone on the phone to help us address the fact that we keep getting an error code. Seems shady not to offer a phone number to troubleshoot.

Great video! I just picked up Ikea Uppspel and its been good but the wobble even at sitting height is annoying. With a 34” & 27” monitor any tap on desk makes both monitors wobble - I’m thinking I need a secret lab desk. Any wobble at all on yours?

I noticed you had wheels on the Uplift but not on the Magnus, is it not possible to add them to the Magnus? and was that a concern for you?
@FracnoTV
@FracnoTV Жыл бұрын
The wheels on the Uplift ended up not being as useful as I had imagined they'd be. That is to say, they work amazing when I need to move my desk, but I don't need to move it very often. I didn't feel I needed them on the Magnus and even if I did, they're not currently an option Secretlab offers.

Great review - thanks a lot for this. I did not understood the UPS part thou, why don't you use your UPS output to power the desk leg, and put some power-distributors in the cable management bay ?

I prefer not to daisy chain so many devices (10 devices into one extension, then all of that load into one outlet in the desk, then out of the desk into a UPC, then UPC to wall) when my current method works well (10 devices into UPC, UPC into wall). Yes, you could physically do it, but I'd rather not test the limits of electrical load with all my gear/devices.

My uplift desk was the best desk I have ever owned. The only complaint I have is the under desk tower holder won't hold my new Corsair 5000D because its too wide so now I have to find another under desk mount...

Im thinking about buying one of these desks. Id have to go with the smaller version tho because of space restrictions but i might be able to do XL. However if i got the regular size.. Id like to have my mid tower PC sit ontop of the desk and id like to get a secert lab shelf riser. And also have duel monitor set up. Both monitors would be 27 inch. Would all that fit ?

Hi Fracno! I had doubts, but after seeing your unboxing, I'm decided... I plan to buy the Magnus Pro as soon as I can. But first I’ll ask you something I'm sure you master… Do you know when there are usually discounts at Secretlab? Black Friday or something like that? Right now I can't afford it, but I wouldn’t mind waiting a few months either if it saves me a few bucks! Thanks in advance!

Love the desk. Got it from a reseller that had the XL boxed up for $500 and included the PC mount. Only complaint is I wish the cable storage was deeper. It was a struggle trying to plug my last two blocky plugs like a keylight and monitor lol. Other than that, love it.

I will start saving for it, configuration with PC holder will cost me over 1000€, but I work from home. I guess a good standing desk will be positive for me to stand more and full steel sound solid and might last me my entire career in the company so... Save my Euro
