Height Adjustable Desks with Storage
Best Height Adjustable Desk With Storage: Elevate Plus vs Magnum L-Shape
A height adjustable desk solves posture, but it does not solve clutter. If your desk is also expected to store cables, documents, and everyday essentials, you need a model built with drawers and shelving from the start, not an aftermarket organiser bolted on later. Here is how Green Soul's two storage-focused electric desks compare.
Quick Answer: For a standard single desk with dual drawers and a monitor riser, choose the Green Soul Elevate Plus. For an L-shaped workstation with a full flexible storage cabinet and the largest work surface, choose the Green Soul Magnum.
Why Built-In Storage Matters on a Standing Desk
Electric height adjustable desks move up and down daily, which means loose organisers, stick-on trays, and desktop clutter tend to shift or fall with repeated motion. A desk engineered with fixed drawers and shelving from the factory keeps your setup organised through thousands of height cycles, which is exactly what both the Elevate Plus and Magnum are built for.

Each Desk in Detail
Green Soul Elevate Plus
The Elevate Plus combines a smooth dual-stage motor with an integrated monitor riser, two fabric drawers, and a center storage shelf, all within a standard 4ft x 2ft footprint. A digital height display, sedentary reminder, and child lock round out the safety and wellness features, while anti-collision technology protects the desk during movement. It is the right choice if you want storage and ergonomics without needing an L-shaped layout.
Green Soul Magnum L-Shape
The Magnum steps up to a 5.3ft x 2.3ft work surface, comfortably fitting dual or triple monitor setups, with an L-shaped side cabinet that can be mounted on either side depending on your room layout. Two removable fabric drawers offer open or closed storage on demand. It ships in two boxes with free installation service included, making it the right pick for larger rooms or corner setups.
Setting Up Your Storage Desk
Getting the Most From Built-In Storage
- Use the center shelf or open cabinet shelf for items you reach for daily, and drawers for less frequent items
- Route cables through the built-in management holes before placing your monitor and PC
- Set your child lock if the desk is in a home with young children or pets nearby
- Save your sitting and standing heights as presets right after setup
Frequently Asked Questions
Which desk fits a smaller room?
The Elevate Plus's 4ft x 2ft footprint fits smaller rooms more easily than the Magnum's 5.3ft L-shaped layout, which needs a corner or wall space to accommodate the side cabinet.
Can the Magnum's cabinet be moved later?
Yes, the L-shaped cabinet on the Magnum can be mounted on either the left or right side, so you can reposition it if your room layout changes.
Do both desks include anti-collision protection?
Yes, both the Elevate Plus and Magnum include anti-collision technology that detects obstacles during height adjustment and stops the motor to help prevent damage.
