Standing Desk Buying Guide

Are there health benefits of stand up desks?
Research has shown that employees who use standing desks after their lunch break burn around 900 extra calories per week, compared to employees who sit at their desks. Standing at work can also lower blood sugar levels which can lead to diabetes, and it lowers the long-term risk of developing heart disease. Workers who use a desk for standing also report having better posture and less lower back pain.

What colors are available?
We have a variety of different colors, finishes and materials of standing desks available. This variety allows you to choose a color that works well with your office aesthetic. If you appreciate wood tones, we have desks surfaced with walnut, beech, cherry, or maple. Solid colors include white, charcoal, and mocha. Some desks have a more industrial look with a combination of exposed metal and wood. It all depends on what you're looking for if you have a specific color theme in mind for your office.

Are standing desks stable?
A stand up desk would not be very useful if it wobbles or sways when deployed to its full height. When you check product details on individual desks, look for what materials the base is made from. The desks we offer tend to be heavier because they have a solid steel base. This provides stability and prevents the desk from swaying, no matter what height it is deployed at.

Can a standing desk's height be adjusted?
Most of our standing desks are adjustable within a standard range of 24" to 50" in height. This allows your employees, regardless of how tall they are, to adjust their desks to a range that's most comfortable for them when standing. There are also automatic presets, so if they want to sit for part of the day and stand for the rest, it's a quick and easy process to adjust the desk height.

What about weight restrictions?
Standing desks from Modern Office Furniture are made from durable materials, which include a solid steel base on many models. Even our smaller standing desks, which have a 24" by 48" surface space, are rated to hold up to 275 pounds of equipment. If you have desktop computers or other heavy equipment that needs to go on top of a standing desk, you can rest assured it won't collapse or break if you stay within the rated weight limit. See individual product pages for specific details on each model.

What else should I look for when shopping for a standing up desk?
Measure your office before ordering new standing desks, to ensure that you have enough space for them. Shop for desks that have the proper shape that you are looking for. This is largely a personal and space choice, but we have a variety of bow-, L-shaped, and U-shaped desks to suit different needs. Desks that have built-in cable management systems also help to keep the workplace looking neat and tidy.
