The FlexiSpot deserves a spot in our list of best desktop standing desk because it has all of the features we wanted in an adjustable height desk.
FlexiSpot has a gas spring hovering system that allows you to adjust the workstation platform up or down smoothly with a light squeeze on the handles. Another bonus is that the FlexiSpot desk converter moves straight up and down – it doesn’t move towards you (out away from the front of the desk) as it raises like some of the other competition.
Another plus is that there aren’t preset heights like some of the cheaper versions – the FlexiSpot is infinitely adjustable to any height you or your coworkers might need.
With a 35″ wide platform and a 35 lbs weight rating, the FlexiSpot should have enough space for your needs. Plus – the company used a robot machine and tested the balance, stability, and movement with a fatigue test of 6,000 height adjustments.
It does require assembly, but a minimal amount that the company calls ‘simple one-step assembly’.
We like the separate height keyboard tray that’s 12 inches deep and the full width of the platform (35″).
If 35″ is too wide, the FlexiSpot comes in a 27″ wide version too.
