Hi all,
Does anyone have any suggestions as to over come a user whose standing desk when raised to max level is still too low for them?
The monitor is at least 7cm below eye level, I havent been to his set up yet to see if he has a standing monitor or a mounted one….But then the desk I guess would still be too low for typing when standing. If it isnt comfortable then it isnt comfortable but aside from a new standing desk, what accessory options are there? That are safe?
Any ideas very welcome!
Thanks all!!

i was thinking along the same lines!
The guys in another building so not been to see him yet but what options are there? Management will mot buy him another desk that goes even higher…unless he is after one of those old Victorian super high desk and chair jobs.
