Mobile and Under-Desk

The rolling cart is a standing desk for a room that already has a desk. It is 31.5 inches wide and 15.75 deep, adjusts between 28.3 and 46.1 inches, and rolls on locking castors, which is what makes it a laptop station beside an armchair in the evening and a lectern in a meeting the next morning. It comes in black and in a light wood finish, and between the legs there is 23.6 inches of clear floor, which is the figure that decides whether a walking pad fits under it. Fifteen inches of depth is not enough for a monitor at a comfortable distance, and pretending otherwise is how these end up disappointing people; it is a laptop surface, and an excellent one.

The two walking pad desks take the same idea further by removing the motor. Both adjust on a pin through six fixed settings between 28.3 and 46.5 inches, stand on three legs so the floor in front stays open, and roll on 2.5 inch locking castors. There is nothing to plug in, which is the whole argument for them in a bedroom or a living room where no socket is free, and the trade is that the height comes in steps rather than continuously and no load figure is published for either. They are offered in black and in white.

The smaller mobile desk is narrower still at 25.59 inches and rated to 22 pounds, which is a laptop, a mug and nothing else. It is the piece for a bedroom corner, a student room or beside a bed, and its light walnut top is the only finish in the catalogue chosen to look like furniture rather than equipment.

The footrest is not a desk and is here because there is nowhere else honest to put it. It has three heights and tilts up to 30 degrees, and it is the cheapest fix in this whole catalogue for the most common ergonomic complaint. Every adult desk here bottoms out around 28 inches. For anyone under roughly five foot four that is slightly too high to sit at with both feet flat, and the choice is a desk that cannot go lower or a footrest that raises the floor. The footrest wins.
