About our Standing Desks Range

A standing desk, also called a stand up or sit stand desk, lets you work at a comfortable height whether you are sitting or standing. Here you'll find standing desks and height adjustable desks for the home office, including corner desks and desks with drawers.

We don't sell furniture ourselves. When you find a desk you like, click through to the retailer to check the latest price, stock, delivery charges and returns policy before you buy.

How height adjustment works

Height adjustable desks raise and lower either with a motor and a control panel or with a manual crank or lever. Check the height range in the product details so you know it suits you both seated and standing.

Size and stability

A standing desk should feel steady at full height, so look at the frame, the weight limit and the width of the top. Wider desks suit two monitors, but need a sturdier frame.

Setting it up

Keep your screen at eye level and your elbows close to a right angle whether you sit or stand, and tidy cables so they do not catch when the desk moves.

Frequently asked questions

What is a standing desk?

A standing desk is a desk that lets you work standing up. Many are height adjustable, so you can raise the top to stand and lower it again to sit, which is why they are also called stand up or sit stand desks.

What height should a standing desk be?

It depends on your height. As a guide, your elbows should be at about a right angle with your forearms level with the desk, so taller people need a higher top. Look for a desk with a height range that covers both your sitting and standing positions.

Are standing desks worth it?

Many people like being able to change position through the day, and a height adjustable desk lets you do that without a second desk. Whether it suits you is personal, so think about how you work before you buy.

Do I need an electric standing desk?

Not necessarily. Electric desks raise and lower at the touch of a button, while manual ones use a crank or lever and are often cheaper. Electric is easier if you plan to change height often.
