You have heard all the hoopla about Standing Desks. The long term, short term benefits, the absence of pain, bye-bye to sedentary lifestyle, keeping obesity at bay, help in preventing cardio-vascular diseases, diabetes and high blood pressure and so on and so forth! All these benefits stem from the important fact that standing desks provide the user flexibility and adjustability to sit or stand and position your monitor according to your preference and comfort.
However the WorkFit-LX Sit-Stand Desk Mount kicks up the adjustability factor a notch.
1) Independent operation of the two arms: This sit-stand system has been designed in such a way that the monitor and the keyboard are mounted on two separate arms, which makes it possible to adjust their height in a range of 20″ respectively but independent of each other. Now let’s assume that you have a body type where your torso is longer compared to the rest of your body. You will need your monitor to be located at a higher level compared to your keyboard, which is possible with the independent adjustment.
2) Pull or push the monitor: When you buy this product, it comes with two extensions, one for the monitor arm and one for the keyboard arm. While you have a choice of not using each extension, adding them will make the horizontal reach of the monitor arm 32.8″ (23.8″ without the extension) and 42″ (33″ without the extension) for the keyboard arm.
So now you can bring your monitor close to your eye level or push it back without affecting your keyboard position. Ability to change the focal distance also makes this system suitable for use with large monitors, a facility that comes in handy when you are working with your colleagues on a project or analyzing tedious data.
3) Installs at the back or side of the desk: Contrary to many workstations in the market today, the WorkFit-LX can be installed either at the back or side of the desk. It fits in tight spaces including a corner desk and the availability of a desk clamp as well as a grommet mount means the depth of the desk is also not a limiting factor. With a 360 degrees pan, the monitor arm can be pushed out of the way when not in use and keyboard tray can be folded 90 degrees.
As if this flexibility is not enough, please note that there is also a WorkFit LX Dual Monitor Sit-Stand Workstation.
