I had the ikea one and this one:

The vivo one has been far better in features and reliability. I had to replace the ikea one because it started only going down and not up.

I've never owned an IKEA desk, but can vouch for VIVO's frames - I'm typing this comment using a mechanical keyboard on an IKEA Karlby countertop mounted to a set of VIVO V120EB legs and am experiencing minimal wobble (minimal desktop wobble, no monitor wobble thanks to the gas-spring monitor arm I have).

I also have my desktop at ~49" off the ground, including castors and a 1.5" thick countertop, and I've read that no standing desk has 0 wobble at this close to maximum height.

If you still have the Ikea one, that was caused by a fairly wide-spread issue with the power bricks. They'll replace them under warranty with just an email with some info about the brick.
