This is the one gadget everyone working from home is raving about and you will too. If you buy nothing else, buy this one item.
As I write this piece I am standing at my recently purchased standing desk converter. After months of working from home, thanks to the craziness that has been 2020 (hey, at least I have a job), sitting at my desk grew old. Real old.
My guess is that it has for you too. If you’ve ever used a standing desk it’s an awesome thing. However, I already have a desk. It’s not the best desk, but it’s ok, it fits in my office, and most importantly, I already have it. Replacing it with a standing desk really wasn’t in the cards.
A converter, however? Yup, 100%.
I finally snagged one about a month ago and it has revolutionized my remote work experience. By now, you’ve probably got your home office accessories dialed in, you’ve figured out this whole virtual background thing, you’ve even bought a webcam. But, you just haven’t pulled the trigger on that big-ticket item like a chair or, in my case, a standing desk converter, right?
Do the converter. Seriously. Just do it. I will wait your thank you emails. 🙂
- If you’ve already invested in one of these…then, my suggestion is to buy a green screen. Learn why here.
Being able to change positions is, in and of itself, a huge deal, but being able to stand for a while, then sit, then stand, etc, turned out to be a big deal for me. Sure, it’s not for everyone, but you really should give it a try. Most converters allow for easy, hydraulic based raising / lowering of the desk so it’s super simple to change positions.
There are many different options to choose from, including several on sale. Here’s a few, including the one I bought.
