How to Get the Ideal Standing Desk in 2024

First, why do we need standing desk?

Standing desk is gradually becoming popular in these years. As we know, the popularity of a product definitely indicates that this product has a wide or deep application scenario. So, what is the use of the increasingly popular standing desk? I think it mainly includes the following points:

1. Applicability to users of different heights

The adjustable height of the standing desk is relatively wide. Take for example the adjustable height desk I'm using，the lowest applicable height of 147cm, the highest applicable height of 190cm, covering the children study, to the needs of the big and tall standing office. 

2. Standing computer desk comfort guarantee

Comfort guarantee and lift the height of the standing desk adjustability is also closely related. standing desk as a standing computer desk, the following aspects of comfort: eye line of sight and the computer screen is perpendicular, hold the mouse hand is straight, whether the seat height allows users to use the computer is comfortable enough.

Of course, the seats are ergonomic chair and tend to have good adjustability. However, after the desk can also realize the lift adjustment, it is clear that the whole system will operate with a higher degree of freedom, and therefore more comfortable to achieve the office, study.

3. Switching work and study status

Need to switch standing, sitting state of the main reason for 2 categories: sitting is easy to get sleepy, sitting for a long time back pain. In both cases, switching from sitting to standing can be a good relief. Of course, standing for a long time will feel sore legs, this time and then switch to sitting posture can be. Comprehensive view, standing gaming desk has a wide range of applicants, can enhance the comfort of work and study, but also can enhance the work and study efficiency.

Second, how to choose a sit stand desk?

So "how to choose a standing desk"? Combined with my experience in using standing desk, I think the following factors are worth considering when buying a standing desk:

1. The number of motors

Existing standing desk are generally divided into single motor and dual motor. Among them, the single motor is through a single side of the motor work, drive the linkage, to achieve the linkage between the two ends of the lift; dual motor is symmetrical on both sides of the preset motor, through the middle of the controller to drive, to achieve the two sides of the lift at the same time. Doesn't it sound rather like front-wheel drive and four-wheel drive?

As far as the realization of the effect is concerned, the dual motor standing desk has a faster lifting speed, a more stable lifting process and a better load-bearing capacity. The biggest drawback of dual motors is that they are more expensive than single motors, after all, there is an extra motor. Dual motors blow away most single-motor lift tables in terms of smoothness, durability, difficulty of installation, etc., so users with hard needs can consider dual motors.

2. Lifting range

One of the main features of the standing desk is a wide range of user groups, adults and children both can use, so the wider the lifting range, naturally have a wider applicability. Can be combined with their own needs, choose more suitable for their own height or family members to lift the height range.

Is not the wider the lifting range, the better the standing desk? In fact, it is not. First, the wider the lifting range, the wider the table leg extension, shortening range, bringing the instability is higher. Secondly, enough is good, lifting range is super wide, may bring cost enhancement, but extremely high or extremely short is not common, in order to a height that may not be used, and increase the cost in vain, it is very unnecessary.

Physiotherapists suggest that the correct sitting posture is to be able to put your arms at 90 degrees flat on the desktop without shrugging your shoulders or hunching your back; your feet can also be placed flat on the ground without hanging or bending. The height of the desk on the market is generally too high, so when you use the computer, the whole arm is lifted, shoulder shrugs state, in the long run will cause neck and shoulder pain.

3. Load-bearing capacity

Load-bearing capacity is an important performance of the lift table, because the table is always more load-bearing needs, such as placing computer hosts, monitors, printers, desktop dispensers and so on. According to their own needs to choose the corresponding load-bearing range.

4. Lifting column

Standing desk column's material, strength, structure is directly related to the load-bearing performance. Materials and sturdiness needless to say, with high strength, large thickness of the metal column, corresponding to the load-bearing performance is not bad.;

Standing desk using the number of sections of the lifting column is often divided into 2 sections and 3 sections, 3 sections of the adjustment process is more silky smooth, but in the case of ensuring the same load-bearing capacity, the requirements of the thinnest 1 section needs to have a higher strength, so the overall cost will also be higher.

5. Accessories of the electric standing desk

In addition to the basic models, standing desk are also available with accessories with auxiliary functions, such as shaped table boards - L shaped standing desk, adjustable desk with drawers, monitor arm, keyboard tray and so on. You can buy the corresponding models according to your needs.

If space permits, the L shaped standing desk it is perfect for families, offering more areas. Perfect for efficient use of space and modern convenience - it's the Perfect for efficient use of space and modern convenience - it's the perfect solution for busy homes. L shaped standing desk get easy access to both sides with its unique design and enjoy quality time together. Of course, with the desktop area becomes larger, will give the lift table load-bearing system puts forward higher requirements, so out of cost control considerations, if the home environment is limited, you can also choose a small standing desk.
