Working from home is becoming the new norm in many Singaporeans’ lives, with some going the extra mile to buy new chairs and even desks to optimise their working environment.
As an alternative to working on low coffee tables or dining tables reserved for meals, standing desks are gaining popularity thanks to the health benefits that come along with them. Plus, they offer many options, with features encompassing both aesthetics and ergonomic purposes.
With a wide range of designs and price tags to choose from, be assured that you can find a standing desk that checks off your needs.
Everdesk aims to create a work environment where users get their work done healthily, actively and comfortably. This is done through its thoughtfully designed dual motor standing desk, with various features.
One of which is its UniGroove system that helps to utilise every space available on the desk with cable and electronic device holders. You get to also choose between Everdesk Lite that holds up to 70kg and runs on a single motor, and Everdesk Max that has a dual motor combo and a 120kg weight limit.
We’re no strangers to hectic days where stretches and eye breaks become an afterthought. Everdesk Max has a Health Coach smart function that prevents this by sending a buzz at 15, 30 or 60-minute intervals as a reminder to change your position.
Every Everdesk also comes with a 10 years warranty so you’ll be covered by any accidental damage from spillages or wear and tear. For those interested in additional accessories like pegboard panels, shelves and monitor arm, make sure to also keep a lookout for new releases available for purchase.
