Executive Standing Desk turns any desk into a standing desk

I use a LifeSpan Treadmill Desk DT-5. I have a second monitor on it hooked up to an 27inch iMac on a sit down desk next to it. The stand up desk uses a wireless keyboard, the sit down has a wired Apple keyboard and I just move the mouse back and fourth.
The DT-5 is built like a tank and could hold two monitors and a loaded MacPro. It takes two people to assemble and a decent size room to do it in. But once put together, which is easy, you can move it and roll the treadmill into place under it. The treadmill is very heavy.
I walk or stand part of the day and sit part of the day.
Note that walking causes your eyes to vibrate! So while walking, you really are just checking email or doing chores. If you are a graphic designer doing detail work, you will want to stand or sit for that! Monitors are also better farther away while walking, keep that in mind.
If you have a hot office, it is even hotter up where you stand. Add a few more inched on the treadmill. Very tall men are practically at the ceiling. But for most people and women, this is not an issue. Especially in air conditioned spaces.
But it is a well made treadmill and desk. If you want to walk at work, it is a good product. The desk is also well made and well designed in how it integrates with the treadmill.
