      Do you guys love your sit/stand desks? Which brand did you end up going with?

      I've been seriously looking at them lately as I've been having some nerve issues and the more I stand the less I hurt.

      One of the ladies in HR has a Varidesk and she is loving it. Managers that are ordering them are liking them. Other managers thinks they are a gimmick and won't touch them. So I have a mixed bag.

        I have noticed that if I'm already on my feet, I'm more likely to move from my desk, which is good. I don't think you could argue that they make you more productive, but you can certainly argue that there are some health benefits for some people.

            Sit / Stand desks are great. I think that they do aid productivity, by making you more active and alert.

                I've thought about adding an anti-fatigue mat here, not for IT work but for the bar, since it is basically a working bar.

                  Foot rails were added to bars to decrease back pain. How old is that anti-fatigue technology?

                    Foot rails are for sitting at the bar. This is for behind the bar.

                      10/10 marks for this one. It's to modify an existing desk to be sit or stand.

                          Installed the sit and stand frame a two weeks ago. Still need a little more cable management and have to figure out what to do about the sub to neaten up the wires.

                            I almost always use a standing desk. I find that a hay-based anti-fatigue mat may not be hard wearing, but is cheap and easy to replace.
