Best standing desks for tall people?

Starting the first real big boy job in a couple of weeks. Hybrid schedule (3-4 days at home, 1-2 in the office) and am looking for recommendations for good standing desks for taller guys (I'm 6'5''). I've had a history of back problems from sitting for extended periods of time and doctor recommended getting an adjustable standing desk for wfh. I'm going to have an extra monitor, and want some extra real estate so that I don't feel too cramped while working too. Would hopefully like to spend $300, but am willing to spend more if good quality. Thanks in advance for recs!

Uplift Desk. Out of your stated price range, but I always recommend quality for anything that comes between you and the ground (chair, bed, shoes, and so on). Your body will thank you later. I got the V2 Commercial. I'm shorter than you but my brother is taller than you and I got him one. He hasn't complained about the min/max height, so it should be fine for you.

I am permanently behind on PMs, it's not personal.
