Sure, you want to stop sitting at the office. But why buy an entirely new stand up desk if you don’t have to, right?
There are several convertible desk gadgets on the market that help you transform the desk that you already have into one that you can stand behind. That said, many are not that great.
Mainly, it’s important to have a desktop surface that feels sturdy and comfortable. Many products are too small or flimsy to accomplish this.
Is There a Standing Desk Converter that Works?
The Stand Steady X-Elite Pro, however, feels very sturdy and provides a large working space (28″ wide x 20″ deep).
You won’t feel like you are always reaching for something, because several items can fit on the desk surface at once. Think laptop, monitor, keyboard, mouse and more.
Furthermore, the height is adjustable. Affix your working surface to the perfect, ergonomically-correct heigh for you.
By doing this, you don’t have to worry about unnecessarily straining your neck or back while you are trying to stay off you butt.

One thing that I have learned about my treadmill desk is that I don’t always want to stand while working. The Stand Steady enables people to have a workstation where they can both sit and stand without taking up extra space.
Researchers agree that it’s healthier to move around throughout the day rather than sit or stand continuously. This standing desk converter solves that problem too.
This gadget has some sort of air pump system, which makes it super easy to raise or lower the desk, even with a bunch of stuff on it. It takes only a few seconds, and you don’t have to interrupt what you’re doing. I think this feature is worth its weight in gold.
Another really nice bonus of a desk converter is that you don’t have to assemble it. Unlike a stand-up or treadmill desk, this product comes fully assembled.
