J.Y. g.

I have to leave this review, because I've never had such a great experience with any customer service rep from any company before.
Steven B. From Uplift Desk was the most helpful, prompt, and friendly representative I've spoken to. After having called, live chatted, and emailed with probably 7 agents from Uplift, all of whom were professional, Steven B still completely stood out – and again, among all reps I've had to contact about orders from other companies.

My return request was a bit more complicated, since there were 2 orders for different attachments for a keyboard tray system, but he completely understood the situation and my request, and was also so courteous and kind on the phone. (Usually, most agents sound like they're reciting from a script or are not really nice). On top of that, I was asking for an unusual request, but he didn't just reject it outright and say that's not company policy or something. Steven said he'd look into what might be possible in this scenario, sent me a confirmation email promptly (again something I usually always need to ask for or check back on later), and even followed up with me the first thing the next day. And right after I got back to him.

Other Uplift Desk agents have been professional and not robotic, but they usually take a few days to respond, meaning I've had to do the work of checking back in and creating reminders for myself to do that, which is work and extra time.
I've had to talk to several agents for this keyboard tray system order that was ultimately easy to mount, like most of their products, but for me it unfortunately didn't work with my footrest and unadjustable armrests, which I was bummed about. But it would've been really annoying if I didn't get a refund for all this work and time spent on this system, and I'm very relieved I luckily got connected to Steven when I called.

As an editor, I find Uplift desks are awesome (prob the best?), and all their attachments are simple and great (though some things are a bit overpriced even if they're high quality and durable), but this last customer service experience with Steven has made me definitely want to get other desk accessories, despite the price for some things, because I know if something ends up not working for my setup, then I don't have to worry about dealing with inefficient, unfriendly, difficult customer service.
Often I do a lot of research on options before buying to avoid having to deal with any of that. Sometimes it's hard to even talk to a real person these days, with chat bots and AI. Very glad also Uplift isn't going that route (their live chat is actually really good).

Just very happily surprised there are customer service agents out there who truly want to help you AND excel at their job. Unfortunately, a very hard combo to find.
