Dont forget the Mat

Every review of every product on their site is 5 stars. This is certainly fishy

Pretty pricey for something you have to put on top of another desk.
That's the one I keep seeing that I was telling you about.

Seriously.
You know it costs less than $30 to make that thing
Who wants to make me one?
Ditto!

Well if we get enough takers I can have @art_of_shred price out making them for you. They would be out of wood however....

We've been looking into buying one of these last week. It looks horrible. I have two users who want standing desks but have struggled to source one. Our usual furniture supplier only offers one model, which is electric, and just shy of $1500! Other suppliers advertise them, but the specs all state they are only 85cm tall, which is far too short. Based on the need for a 6ft tall person to have their lower arms at right angles, we need desks that are around 110cm tall.
The only realistic one I have found is this, but at $900 it's still a bit expensive:
http://www.uk.insight.com/en-gb/apps/productpresentation/index.php?product_id=0001578442We don't really need them to move up and down. A simple tall table would suffice - I can't believe how hard I've found searching for one.
I don't know if they're more popular in the US, but in the UK it appears that they're practically unheard of. Apparently they're popular in Sweden as variable height desks are a legal requirement for companies over there.
@Minion-Queen / @art_of_shred - I suspect I couldn't afford the postage for one of yours, sadly.

The mat is tiny. It would make more sense to pick one up from Grainger.

I'm sure that would be much cheaper.

and if you're using a table that can go up and down.. the mat needs to be large enough for a chair to work on also.
Though I suppose if the mat is for foot preservation - it might be to soft for a chair..

You could probably build one with stuff from Grainger, or Lowes.
