What a terrible idea. The effort you put into going to the bathroom for a piss totally outweighs this desk. Or going out for lunch.

First of all you should not change the height on a table without also change the height of what you are sitting on, or stand up. The second, 140 pound? is it reinforced steel?

This is a sit/stand desk. It is designed to change heights when you want to stand up or sit down to work. They usually have a memory so you can switch easily between the two.

It is actually becoming fairly common as we are now finding out that sitting all day is actually bad for your health. People are now using these to stand up for a portion of the day to work to help with back problems and such.

to add to pedasc's comment, there are many treadmill/bike desks being made for basically the same reason. trying to get rid of first world health problems.

True. But cost is very high!

I wanted a sit/stand desk for my home office setup but as awesome as this one is, I just can't stomach nearly $3k for it no matter what nifty tech is with it. I could buy an equally awesome (minus the techie stuff) desk from Ergotron for probably one fifth the price of this one. It's a nice desk, no doubt... but not $3k nice.

Just imagine the hilarity of having your desk hacked.

You are writing a paper and the desk suddenly shoots up 2 feet and deskplants you in the face.

Yes I made a new word Deskplant.
