Why I finally ditched my standing desk for a $40 Facebook Marketplace table
I stood at my desk for 2 hours a day for almost a year at my place in Columbus, and my knees hated me for it. So I sold the standing frame for $150 and grabbed a solid wood dining table off Facebook Marketplace for $40 instead, then cut the legs down with a circular saw in my garage. Everyone says standing desks are the only way to fix back pain, but sitting at a table that actually fits my height did more for me than the standing thing ever did. Has anyone else gone backward on purpose and been happier with a cheap fix?
