    I walk 20 - 40k steps a day. I use to sit for 9 hours a day. Standing desks should be required for all able desk workers!

    finally some one with practical sense . I have seen people buying $1k+ plus worth of standing desk for laptop that is worth not more than $700 . There is term in the corporate consulting used "Justifiable cost ". Even top 10 consulting firm won't approve it as a valid business cost. ***Liked and subscribed. I asked for one at one of the prestigious consulting firm and they came back with desk with manual up and down mechanism and they have those tables for more than 20 years and still operational .

    I noticed you haven't mentioned instability. I'm about to buy a desk which I can't test before I buy, and I am worried that it might be less stable than my current 4 leg desk. Is instability a big issue with electric standing desks, or should I not worry?

    Why does nobody talks about if there is power outage what happens with the desk in height? Does it stops there or decrease down slowly to the bottom? And the next quiestion is, how much electricity it uses when it holds the height and when it moves up nd down? Thx.

    What is actually the problem with a crank desk? Is it just having to adjust the table manually? Are they less failure prone and faster than an electric desk?

  • @btodtv

    @btodtv

    4 жыл бұрын

    Adjusting them manually is the number one problem because many require a lot of cranks per inch of adjustment. This means they are much slower and require more effort to make adjustments. They won’t have electronic issues, but will most likely have much lower weight capacities. -GK

    Generally good and informative video. The common problems regarding power outlets is a bit of complete nonsense. People have these for computers. The computers need power. Ergo they always place them where there is available power. Even when its just a laptop.

    @@btodtv I defer to the feedback you receive and apologise. It wasn't meant to be as abrasive as it sounds reading it back. I am surprised that a lack of power outlets is a problem though in any home that can afford to buy a powered standing desk. One thing I wholeheartedly agree on from an engineering point of view is that a single motor solution is better as long as it is powerful enough.
