Sit-Stand Desks — Expert Answer
FAQPage structured data
How fast does an electric sit-stand desk travel?
Standard electric sit-stand desks travel at approximately 1"–1.5" per second — full sitting to full standing in approximately 12–18 seconds. Premium models travel at 1.5"–2" per second. Slower motors (0.5"–0.8" per second) on entry-level desks result in 20–30 second transitions, which discourages regular use. Speed is an important purchase consideration.
