I spent quite a bit of time researching standing desks before I bought the Safco workstation. The most comprehensive standing desk review available online right now is an article by The Wirecutter (google "Wirecutter standing desk"), which I used as my starting point in standing desk research. Another very useful information source is an article by Wired (google "Ditch Your Office Chair for a New 'Standing Desk'"), which goes into some more detail about the benefits of standing. Basically, standing, as opposed to sitting, will burn more calories, is correlated with increased longevity and decreased risk of heart disease, and has been reported to increase productivity and decrease fatigue.The problem, though, is that standing desks are still a niche market, and there are relatively few products available. And the products that are available are expensive. The Wirecutter's top recommendation (and not the most expensive one) is $1497. That's something I might invest in the future, but it's far too much for an entry point standing desk, especially for someone that will be moving in the near future like me. At the opposite end of the spectrum is the IKEA hack desk (google IKEA standing desk hack). This was closer to what I was looking for, but it requires already having a regular desk as a base and a power drill, neither of which I already have. Plus, I hoped for something a bit classier looking.A less pricey recommendation by The Wirecutter was the Read more

I ordered this work station because I work from home a couple of days a week and I have issues with my lower back and am more comfortable standing than sitting. I have used Ergotron and Kangaroo brand adjustable stand and sit desk at work and they are great but there were no adjustable height desks in my price range that had good reviews so I selected this standing station. I really like it, it is a great height for me (5'8) I just had to use a monitor stand to bring my monitor to my line of sight but the keyboard height is perfect. It fits all of my things (printer, I have a monitor and laptop side by side on the top of the desk, I have files and desk organization things). I really like it because I have a 1 bedroom apartment and didn't have space for an office and this is like an office on a cart. When I'm done working I roll it to my coat closet (which I emptied to store the workstation). I roll it about 15 feet from the closet to my living room from a hardwood floor to carpet and it takes a little extra push to get it over the threshold of the living room but its easy enough. When I need to take sitting breaks I just un-dock my laptop and sit at my dining table. This is a great product for the price.

KNOW YOUR HEIGHT: I'm 5'10" and using a laptop on the top part of the desk. It's slightly high to be typing on but it's good enough. The keyboard tray (I have a keyboard there but don't usually use it) feels a little too low for me, but I haven't used it for any real length of time.So neither height (the top desk or the keyboard tray) feels "perfect" for me at the standard desk height (with wheels). Still, good enough, and based on the reviews of their 'adjustable' desk model I decided to get this one. I debated 4 or 5 stars, but ultimately decided 4 stars based on Amazon's "4: I like it" vs. "5: I love it" differentiation. I love the standing desk concept; I like this particular desk.Also, KNOW YOUR FITNESS level before committing to a standing desk -- or have a 'sitting desk' nearby and be prepared to work with both for a trail period of a few weeks, at least. I did some standing 'work' at the kitchen counter for a trial period to see if I really liked the concept, and I'm in great health to begin with, so I love it. Unless I physically can't stand anymore, I imagine I'll use a computer like this for many years to come.Price: Only you can decide if ~$200 is worth it for you. I spent a lot of time debating whether to attempt to build a desk or buy one pre-made. Ultimately, since there isn't an IKEA store in my city, shipping costs on IKEA stuff would cancel out any major benefit, plus I'd have to build it myself. I could take an entire Saturday (or maybe two full days) on a large project of building a desk, including making a mess and probably making an imperfect desk -- although that would give some great learning experience on building things. But I decided I couldn't spend the time to do that, and would rather take the plunge on this and build it myself.Assembly: Took between 1-2 hours, including unboxing and trash disposal. Had one minor cracked plastic piece on the bottom 'foot' near the right rear wheel, but it's in the back of the desk so not visible.Having rollers is great, especially if you have hard floors! I wheel this out into the 'study' room occasionally.Misc tip:TAKE BREAKS. I'd recommend a ~2 minute break every 20 minutes. Shift gears both mentally and physically. Writing a novel? Go organize your bathroom for a few minutes, or take out the trash. Do something physically/mentally different, then come back to your work. Every hour, take a ~5-10 minute break with the same principles. It's beyond the scope of this review to explain why this actually makes our 'work' time MORE productive, but it does. Try it.Read more

For years now, I have have been tired of sitting, sitting, sitting all day long. Now recent medical evidence (I'm a medical writer so I pay attention to such things) shows that sitting all day, even if you work out at nights or on weekends, is devastating to your health.I work from home three days a week, and my work requires a separate computer. For many months now, I have been thinking of buying a stand-up desk that would house only my work computer and that I would use while on working hours. After looking around at several very overpriced models, I settled on this one. One of the selling points was from the reviewers who said it was easy to put together. I am a single female and not very adept at DIY home projects. However, I did manage to get this together by myself in about two hours. If I can do this by myself, ANYONE can. It now serves as my work station and is situated next to my sit-down desk. This is wonderful because I bought a separate monitor, mouse, keyboard, etc., to go into the stand-up station, which means I no longer have to plug and unplug my monitor, keyboard, and mouse to switch from one computer to another.Some reviewers said this might not be suitable for shorter people. I am 5'1" and feel it is absolutely PERFECT for me. The monitor is exactly eye-level and the keyboard puts my arms at a perfect and very comfortable 90-degree angle. Caveat: this perfect-for-me height was achieved by removing and discarding the wheel castors and connecting screw, which easily added another 3 inches to the unit's height. The wheel castors are the only gripe I had about the construction, anyway, so it's no loss. There was no way to lock them into place and they kept falling off. This was a problem when I moved the newly-constructed unit from my livingroom (hard wood floors) into the bedroom where it would reside. The wheels fell off immediately and the now-exposed screws scratched the hardwood floors. Fortunately, the unit is very easy to move back and forth even without the wheel castors, and even on carpeted floors. All in all this product definitely serves a need I have had for a very long time and at a very reasonable price.Read more

Play Video sturdy, easy to move around, easy to assemble, though it arrived box dented, I decided to keep bec its too heavy to return. some pieces bent wood tip bent as well.. would have given 5 for value if it wasnt damaged. video shows the pieces were already straightened up by tools. wood however shows damaged. i like the height of this. mind u this is not adjustable and i knew that when i bought it. middle wood was hitting my knee while sitting so had to install it reverse so its far from knee. works that way as well.

Fixed desks are the traditional office layout. Fixed desk means the desk is your own, allows making use of their personal space. Different people function in different ways and not everybody works the best. A fixed desk is an element of stability and can minimize time trying to find people in the office.

Cherry

They are also easy to clean, maintain and scratches or dents can be fixed. The wood is also known to produce fine furniture’s that are attractive or eye-catching for anyone entering your house. Desk made from hardwood will not only be good but also the furnish give it a fancy look to admire.
