Constant Sitting Can Kill You
American’s sit for 12+ hours per day which comes with a whole slew of negative health effects. Sitting for prolonged periods has been objectively proven to be the 4th largest cause of mortality.
Risk of Cancer is Greatly Reduced
Studies have linked prolonged sitting to a greater risk of colon, breast, and endometrial cancers. Research has suggested that regular movement boosts natural antioxidants that kill cancer.
Moving Supports Bone Health
Bones, similar to muscles, require regular movement to maintain strength. Low-level activity (like occasionally standing) helps improve overall bone health.
Cable Management Sleeve
The form-fitting stretchy mesh material allows for up to 25 cables to be securely tucked away out of mind and out of sight. Just wrap the sleeve around all of your cords then attach it to the desk. Thanks to the cable sleeve flexibility, your entire work setup will look just as good as your sleek standing desk!
Sturdy Steel Frame
The heavy-duty steel constructed DirectionDesk frame is height and width adjustable (if needed), with three telescopic height columns on each leg. This commercial grade frame is able to lift your weighted down work station with ease! The frame comes with an LED Keypad and functionality to save 3 different height presets simultaneously!

With a contract-grade walnut or white paulownia top finish, this 72 inch spacious desk top will withstand the test of time with added high pressure durability. The large top fits all your necessary work station needs, while staying sleek and modern to complete your office look.

The desk works exactly like I’d hoped.
I bought it so I could spend more time standing at work, but the highlight I didn’t anticipate is that it makes it more comfortable when I’m sitting as well–since I can adjust it to the right height for my arms (instead of bunching them up to type or hunching over to reach the keyboard).
So, that was an unexpected bonus.
It’s also nice that the top is included–since a lot of manufacturers sell the frame by itself and leave you to hunt for a top that will match the size.
Would recommend.

I purchased this to create a sewing table, it works perfectly. I can lower it when quilting and raise it up for garment construction and even higher for machine embroidery.

This is one of the best purchases I’ve made in a while. I spend about 70% of the day standing now. I am more productive throughout the day. This desk goes from a sitting position to standing in a matter of seconds. I thought it was easy to assemble upon arrival. I shopped around for a standup desk for a while and this was one of the lower priced ones. I am amazed with the quality for the price. I would highly recommend this desk to others.

I needed a desk that was a bit bigger so I could comfortably fit my monitors and computer on it without feeling crammed. I did a lot of research before buying and found this one to be the best bank for your buck. I’ve had the desk for a couple weeks now and I’m still amazed of the quality and sturdiness of the desk. Highly recommend this desk to anyone
