The Vivo standing desk converter caught our attention with its exceptionally low price point of $180 (for the manual version). As always with popular, low-costed products, we approach with a healthy mix of skepticism and hope. What costs were cut in order to arrive at such a price, and were those cuts reasonable? Sure, the keyboard tray does not feature ergonomic tilt, and its max height of 16” will not be suitable for taller users, but these are concessions that many are willing to make to save a couple hundred dollars. While we stress the importance of ergonomics for better long term health, increased affordability means an [...]

There are plenty of cheap sit-stand products on the market, and there are plenty of ergonomically solid ones out there as well. The WorkEZ (and its many look-alike competitors like the iCraze and Furinno) splits the difference, mixing flimsy construction with decent ergonomics and a low price point. We'll start out by saying that Uncaged Ergonomics has produced a very affordable, ergonomically functional product.

Every day we have hundreds of readers researching this very question when looking through our reviews, so we thought we'd dedicate an article to the big picture discussion of when is it best to move aside your old desk and replace it wholesale with a new adjustable-height desk, and when it might make more sense to simply attach a "standing desk converter" to your old fixed-height desk.

Some manufacturers, perhaps in the efforts to cut costs, stubbornly continue to ignore ergonomics, and very often end up producing products that may cause as many ergonomic problems as they purportedly solve. The effort it takes to find a device that suits your individual anthropometry (the unique dimensions of your body) will help keep your body healthy in the long term while you stand and work.
