With the X-Elite Pro, easily and instantly convert any desk to a sit stand desk. With the pull of a lever, a pressurized pump assist lifts the platform with ease anywhere from 7 to 16 inches higher than your desk height.
What I like about this height adjustable convertible desktop is that it comes fully assembled in the box. Simply open the box, put it on your desk, put your stuff on top of it and get right to work!
Platform size is 28 by 20 inches. This wouldn’t work for me because I have 2 monitors and a laptop and this platform is too small. Also, the rated weight capacity is only 20 pounds so make sure your gear doesn’t weigh more than that.
Make sure this lifts high enough for you. The max height is 16 inches above your desk surface, and sitting height is 2.5 inches (another reason I chose an electric sit stand desk frame instead of a desk converter)
Those 2 issues aside, this is a top selling sit stand desk converter and is relatively well priced. Plus, it comes in 4 colors so you can spice up your desk or choose to match your existing desktop.
Earlier versions of the X-Elite Pro didn’t work well to slowly lower things, but the current version has been updated with a helper spring that allows it to lower slowly, keeping your things from crashing off of it. Also, the older versions ‘lowest’ setting was 5 inches, but that is now only 2.5 inches above desk height.
Overall, 76% of people that purchased this best desktop standing desk gave it a 5 star rating, and another 18% rated it as 4 out of 5 stars.
