While a standing desk is the foundation of your workspace, you can also save on other necessities, such as converters, ergonomic chairs, and accessories like cord storage and monitor arms that can make your workspace more comfortable or streamlined. One of our top office chairs from Branch is 15% off, while standing desk converters from Vari are 30% off, if you're looking to add a raising element to your existing desk.
Many manufacturers of standing desks are presenting their best deals of the year. While some brands like Flexispot advertise savings of up to 65% off, a more typical expectation is about 15% to 30% off these evergreen items. It's not uncommon to also see freebies and extra discounts when you bundle with various accessories or an office chair.
You'll need to consider your budget, height, space constraints, and desired customizations when choosing a standing desk.
We've tested standing desks that are under $200 and models close to $2,000; there is truly an option for everybody. We favor electric desks over manual designs that require a crank for their ease of adjustability. Most of these electric models also have digital controls to quickly raise or lower the desk with a button press and make presets between sitting and standing.
Beyond that, you'll want to consider your height and make sure it raises to an ergonomic setting. These charts from Uplift and Autonomous provide table height recommendations for your height.
Many of these desks are customizable according to desktop surface type, table size, and add-ons like a drawer, cable management, and monitor arms.
If you have lots of heavy gear to load up on your desk, you'll want to pay attention to the desk's weight capacity and whether it can safely lift and lower. At higher heights, standing desks can be known to sway and lose their stability. Our desks reviewed in our guide to the best standing desks pass our requirements, but sometimes, that may be a concern for some budget desks.
