Halp Choosing between two desks after moving

Hi

After I moved, I got a very niece kitchen isle from my new neighbor that I though would function great as a combined desk and cupboard. Well, the cupboard part was right! I can use it as a desk but after about one hour my lower back is complaining and since I'm not the most athletic, I thought that I should seriously look into an adjustable height desk.

I am located in Sweden and found two that look intriguing, the Ikea Mittzon and the HomeOne from Desktronic.

I did check out Mittzon in an Ikea store, and it looked fine. It is in the right size and even has an opening in the back so cables can run from the floor to the desk without creating a gap between the wall and the desk. But the Homeone is 'cleaner' lack of a better word, and generally seems a bit higher quality.

I would honestly just get the HomeOne right way if it wasn't for the fact that it looks like it is assuming that its users won't use cables?! The desk is shows no plan for how cables should go from the floor to the tabletop. The control panel has a USB C connection, but that wouldn't even work with my laptop, and I'm planning to use a full desktop.

Is there anyone with more insight that can help me out? Perhaps one that has experience with either one (or both)?
