A standing desk lets you change between sitting and standing during the day, which many people find easier on the back and shoulders than sitting for eight hours. Our electric sit-stand desks raise and lower with a motor at the press of a button; manual height-adjustable desks and desktop sit-stand converters sit on top of your existing desk to lift your monitor and laptop. Check three things before you buy: the desktop width you need (about 120cm fits a monitor, keyboard and notebook), the height range (it should reach your elbow height when standing), and where the nearest wall plug is for an electric model. All our standing desks are delivered flat-packed with fittings and instructions. Johannesburg, Pretoria and Cape Town: 1–3 working days. Other areas: 3–6 working days. Free delivery on orders of R750 (incl. VAT) or more in Johannesburg, Pretoria and Cape Town. Other areas: courier quote at checkout.
A desk whose height can be changed so you can work sitting or standing. Electric models use a motor; manual models use a crank or lift mechanism.
Most people start by switching between sitting and standing every 30–60 minutes and build up from there.
Electric is quicker and easier if you change position often; manual or desktop converters cost less and need no plug.
