By separately packaging components we lower the risk of any damage during transit.

We have multiple warehouse locations, and our separate packaging gives our shipping partners the flexibility to pick up and deliver your order as soon as possible.

For company-wide adoption or personal use, our electric desk range is engineered to support physical health, mental wellbeing, and peak productivity.

Our desk tops are crafted from durable, scratch-resistant MDF wood and are available in a variety of matte finishes, colors, and sizes. Choose a desk top in Black, White, Walnut, White Oak, Bamboo, or Chunky Oak, then mix and match with your choice of Black, White, or Gray all-steel leg frame.

With the touch of a button our adjustable desk lifts up to 265 lbs of gear from its lowest to maximum height in just 20 seconds.

The UL Certification Mark is one of the most widely recognized and trusted symbols of safety for consumers globally. When investing in a sit stand desk that you plan on using daily, whether it be for work, education, or gameplay, UL certification ensures product safety, performance, and reliability for you, your family, and your teams.

According to the ANSI/BIFMA G1 ergonomic guidelines, any rising desk is recommended to be adjustable from a minimum height of 22″ to a maximum height of 46.5″. This is intended to accommodate 90% of the US population based on a national census survey, from the 5th percentile of women to the 95th percentile of men.

ANSI/BIFMA X5.5 is a set of strict standards recommended for any sit-stand workstation. All Autonomous Desks with ANSI/BIFMA certification are rigorously tested and approved for Top Loading, Load Ease, Lock Mechanism, Extendible Element or Roll-Out Shelf Cycle, Out Stop, Rebound, Racking, Leg Strength, Horizontal and Vertical Adjustment, Stability, Cycle Testing for Receding Doors, Interlock, Drop Test for Receding Door, and Unit Drop.

In their own words, “This standard specifies acceptance levels to help ensure reasonable safety and performance independent of construction materials, manufacturing processes, mechanical designs, or aesthetic design.”

The following models are ANSI + BIFMA certified:

Autonomous Desk Eureka

Autonomous Desk Expanse

Autonomous Desk DuoSpace

Autonomous Desk DIY

Yes. All Autonomous frames proudly boast both BIFMA and EMC certifications.

No. Autonomous Desks are exceptionally environmentally friendly. By cutting standby power usage from an average 1-2 Watts down to an industry-leading maximum of 0.1 Watts, our electric standing desks are engineered to save energy and minimize carbon emissions.

First, factor the available space you have to set up your rising desk, the amount of equipment that you need to place on your raising desk, and your standing/sitting height. Then you can consider the height range, desktop sizes, and weight capacities that are available. Provided to help you with your decision, check out the specs tab under each desk for more detailed information, or pull up the comparison table to see a side-by-side breakdown.

That depends on what you’re looking for. We love both models but they do cater for different needs. The Autonomous Desk Eureka is the fuss-free option that delivers an all round package of solidity and flexibility, at incredible value. The Pro version has more range and a greater degree of automation.

For instance, one difference in height range. The Autonomous Desk Eureka offers a height range of 29.3–48.5 inches, while the Max offers more flexibility with 26.2–52 inches.

Sure. You’ll be able to choose from Eureka, Eureka Max and L-shape options. Just make sure to check the specs for each frame, and design your desk top accordingly.

The Autonomous Desk DIY includes the complete frame and motor kit. Create the desk that suits your personality by choosing a standing desk frame and your own custom desk top, or use the desk top you already have and treat yourself to the ultimate upgrade.

Yes! All stand-up desk orders that are shipped internationally come with all corresponding power converters and power cord plugs pre-installed.

The Autonomous Chair Ergo and Autonomous Chair Ultra are two premium chair offerings from Autonomous that feature multiple adjustment points for maximum flexibility. You can even try active sitting with our c, a fun and core-activating alternative to sitting and standing.

At Autonomous, we have a wide range of products which can complement your Autonomous Desk. For standing, check out our comfortable Anti-fatigue mat that reduces tension on your ankles and knees. These standing desk accessories will help you maximize the use of your Autonomous Desk and provide a productive office environment.

Setting the preset heights on a height adjustable desk is simple. First, adjust the height of the desk to your liking. After that, hold down the button with the letter "M" on the electronic pad. When the LED screen displaying the height flashes, press a number button you want to associate with that height. The height is now saved in memory, and you are ready to work smarter!

You sure can! Autonomous table tops are 1 inch thick. As long as your under-desk keyboard tray can accommodate this thickness you’re good to go.

Ultimately, it’s a balance. Sitting for an extended period can lead to an increased risk of heart disease, diabetes, and obesity. By standing at points throughout the day, you eliminate those health problems, including back strain and poor blood circulation. However, standing for too long may do more harm than good.

Using an adjustable standing desk allows you to easily alternate between sitting and standing throughout the day. This encourages healthy habits like taking breaks to move around and refresh your mind after a period of body inactivity.

Yes, it aids in maintaining a healthy posture, which goes a long way toward reducing back and neck problems. A rising desk helps take pressure off the pelvis, forces your body muscles to work to maintain a healthy standing posture.

This restores your spine to its initial S-curve over time, so you don't have to hunch or gaze down the entire day, protecting your neck and back from pain. If you don't have a good posture, buying a standing office desk can be extremely helpful.

Using an adjustable desk and moving around has been proven to help with back pain. According to a 2018 study, patients who utilized a sit-stand desk and received sedentary behavior counseling saw a 50% reduction in lower back pain than a control group that received neither intervention.

Along with maintaining proper posture, alternating between sitting and standing, and regular movement, a sit-stand desk can relieve your back pain over time. As forcing yourself to stand for hours on end can cause more harm, opt for a stand-up desk, so the option to sit is still available.

Yes. When your desk and equipment are at the wrong height, you might risk your postural health with your head and neck protruding forward, which adds weight to your neck. An adjustable table sets your workstation up to an appropriate height, preventing you from incorrectly craning or angling your neck. This takes off the pressure on your neck and relieves the pain. Moreover, prolonged sitting can result in neck stiffness, which is not the case if you use a rising desk. You can buy it online today to avoid neck problems.

Sitting at a desk all day takes a toll on your health. According to a University of Waterloo study, standing with an adjustable desk for at least 30 minutes every hour provides health benefits - though other experts say 15 minutes every hour is enough.

While results vary with research, try to avoid putting a strain on your legs by standing for extended periods. Forcing yourself to stand for hours can cause more harm than good, so opt for a standing office desk to alternate your position throughout your day.

Yes. Standing instead of a sitting desk can lower your risk of weight gain by burning around 50 calories every hour on average, compared with sitting. All the micro-movements when you stand also expend energy and activate your muscle mass, burning calories.

When standing with a rising desk, the ideal height is at elbow level. Adjust your tabletop to ensure that when your forearms are laid flat on your desk in a typing position, they lie at a 90-degree angle to the floor.

Yes! A sit-stand desk is great for relieving back, neck, and shoulder discomfort, and supports better posture during hours of epic gaming. Standing naturally increases your energy and focus, rather than relying on sugary drinks or caffeine to give you an extra boost.
