Should be good for my back. Cord management is an issue. I’m glad my employer is paying too, $450 for this kit.

working from a cabin in the woods is probably good for your health too

Those are nice!

We have cubicles in my office. The bought us cheap standing “ desks” that sit on top of our desks and raise our monitors and keyboards . One of my coworkers decided she didn’t like the ergonomics of those and whined until they bought her one like you have. Except, you know, we have cubicles, so you shove that thing in there and there’s no room left. So I ended up re-engineering it to work with our cubicle desks and I’m actually pretty proud of my work, it’s slick.

I have a lift up one that sits on top of my normal desk. It works great though and I love it. I’m standing right now actually. Remember to take breaks, it’s better for your feet.

It would be great if it wasn’t for this busy highway 75 feet from the building.

Yes it has electric motors and had a desk height range from 25" to 50". I don’t know what that is in socialist units but you get the picture.

Maybe invest in a nice cushy mat to stand on so your feet don’t get tired?

Can you share the brand or a link?  I'm looking into one, not as likely my employer will pay, but for the times I do work at home it may be worth it.  Typing on a laptop for almost 20 years has made it so I need to sit or stand just right or I get elbow and shoulder pain.

I tried to get one, they said no. I’m not paying for one so it looks like I’ll just keep getting up and walking around every 45 minutes because my back/legs get upset :)
