Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the difference between a height adjustable desk and a sit-stand workstation?

A height adjustable desk replaces your existing desk with a complete electric desk that can be adjusted between sitting and standing positions. A sit-stand workstation sits on top of your current desk and allows you to alternate between sitting and standing without replacing the desk itself. The right option depends on your workspace and whether you want to replace or modify your existing desk.

Should I choose a single motor or dual motor electric desk?

Single motor desks generally suit lighter-duty setups and simpler workstation requirements. Dual motor desks are often preferred for stronger lifting performance and smoother adjustment, particularly with larger worktops or heavier equipment. The right option depends on your setup, worktop size and how frequently you plan to change positions.

Which height adjustable desk format is best for my workspace: rectangular, L-shaped, back-to-back or drafting table?

Rectangular desks are a versatile choice for most office and home office setups. L-shaped desks provide additional surface space across two work areas, while back-to-back desks suit shared workstations. Height adjustable drafting tables are designed for angled or task-specific work where a standard flat desk may not be suitable.

Are these height adjustable desks suitable for smaller home offices as well as larger workplaces?

Yes. The range includes compact desks for smaller home offices through to larger workstations for commercial environments. Worktop sizes start from 1000 x 600 mm and extend to 1800 x 800 mm, with larger corner configurations also available. You can filter options by size, colour and frame style.

What features should I look for in a height adjustable desk?

When comparing height adjustable desks, consider the lifting capacity, height range, motor system and worktop size. Depending on the model, other features may include memory presets, anti-collision technology and cable management. The right combination will depend on your equipment, workspace and how often you adjust the desk.

I’m worried about buying the wrong desk online. Is there enough guidance to compare the options?

Yes. You can compare desks by size, colour, brand and desk type, with filters helping to narrow the options. Our Sit Stand Electric Desk Guide also provides visual recommendations and information about weight capacities. If you need further help, the team can provide advice based on your workspace.

How do I set the correct height for a height adjustable desk?

When working at a keyboard, your desk should generally be adjusted so your elbows are close to a 90-degree angle and your shoulders remain relaxed. Your monitor should also be positioned at an appropriate viewing height. An adjustable desk makes it easier to tailor your workstation to your individual setup.
