'Sturdy' sit-stand desk that 'makes such a difference' for home working now £50 off
"This is one of the best office purchases I've made, really great value for money."
Since Covid hit over five years ago, working from home has been a staple part of many of our lifestyles. But as more and more of us work from laptops in our studies or living rooms, it's becoming increasingly important to invest in good-quality equipment to prevent muscle strains or sore backs.
One revolutionary investment for home workers who find it difficult to sit down for eight hours a day is an adjustable desk that allows users to both sit down or stand up while working.
And those in the market for one are in luck, as the top-rated ErGear Electric Standing Desk is currently £50 off on Amazon for Prime members only. Usually costing £189.99, the desk is currently available on a 26 per cent discount for Prime members, slashing its price to £139.98.
The adjustable desk features a smooth electric lifting system allowing home workers to change position throughout the day and avoid any discomfort from staying in the same position for too long. The LED control panel also allows workers to change position at the touch of a button, without disrupting their busy working day.
Measuring 160cm by 80cm, the spacious desktop offers ample room for any home worker's computer and essentials. Thoughtfully designed with two cable grommets and two hooks, it keeps the workspace organised and clutter-free.

Product Description
Its product description describes the adjustable desk as 'the perfect companion for enhancing home, office, or any workspace', and claims it can be easily built by one person. As well as being spacious, the desk is designed to hold up to 80KG, and is guaranteed to last years.
And while operating with electricity, the desk promises to work smoothly, efficiently and almost silently, with an 'ultra-quiet noise level' of less than 55db.
Those browsing other standing desks may opt for the ProperAV Two-Tier Stand-Up Desk Workstation, which is designed to sit on top of a normal desk to allow stand-up working. It's available on Argos for £130. Or, the Koble Gino Height Adjustable Office Desk is also available on Argos for £269.
But the discounted ErGear Electric Standing Desk on Amazon has raked in some glowing reviews, scoring an overall rating of 4.6 stars out of five from almost 1,000 reviews.
One happy shopper said: "This is one of the best office purchases I've made. Really great value for money in a good choice of colours and dimensions.
"The electronic pre-set function allows up to 4 height settings and you can also adjust with the up and down arrows for any height in between. I've got my laptop, keyboard, mouse, extra large monitor, stationery and files and it is sturdy. Does not wobble at all.
"Feels like really good quality materials. Was easy to assemble as well with two of us. Has made such a difference to my comfort levels working from home up to 9 hours a day."
Yet a less pleased home worker said: "Very flimsy and not good quality at all. Screws don't work properly and not steady after building. Swaying lots."
But another satisfied customer shared: "Easy to construct and looks good. Size is perfect for the space and it seems to be reasonably sturdy. Smooth operation and can put the height to suit me perfectly."
And someone else agreed, adding: "Only had it for a few hours but already extremely impressed. Feels very sturdy, looks good, functions well and the instructions were very clear. The adjustable height setting works great."
The discounted adjustable sit/stand desk is available on Amazon.
