Lightweight Flexible Standing Desk for All Heights
Great for Your Back and Legs and Portable So You Can Work Anywhere
This desk checked all the boxes for us. It’s hands down the best table top standing desk. We now own two. With an extra large work surface, very few moving parts, and a large range of adjustment for height, it’s perfect. And if you sit at a desk even part of the day you aren’t doing your health any favors. Sitting down is bad for you! This tabletop design is good because we move it from room to room; sometimes letting it stand on top of the desk, others on the kitchen island or dining room table.

- Healthier– legs get stronger, rear portions get tighter, calories get burned
- Strong– holds our 17″ laptop and 24″ monitor no problem
- Lightweight– not a hassle to move room to room
- Large Work Surface– even with all of the above on it, there is room for paperwork too
- Adjustable– just click the locking pins into next set of holes like an outdoor umbrella
