First Impressions
First Week using the the Flexispot ED2B
After a week using the sit/stand desk and it feels an overall positive experience and I would highly recommend the flexispot standing desk.
Purchase & Delivery Costs
The frame was purchased directly from Flexispot since at the time of purchase they had offer which reduced the price of the frame by €90. The frame costed €379.99 reduced to €289.99.
Flexispot didn’t have the option to deliver directly to Malta so I used the Maltapost SendOn service through which I insured the product for €5 and the service charge was that of €31.

Flow / Use
I usually start the work day by sitting for around two hours before I start feeling the itch to start moving. I go to the kitchen to fetch a bottle of a water and switch to the standing position which can be done in less than a minute with the preset memory buttons. I usually stand for two/three hours before I feel tired and have to switch to the sitting position.
Installation / Assembly
The installation was very easy and it only took a couple of hours totally. Here’s a couple of photos of the unboxing and installation;

Background
I had been debating to purchase a standing desk for quite some time. I’ve read multiple articles and studies with mixed pros and cons. After 15 years sitting at a desk for over 8 hours Mon-Fri and some time in between, I thought I’d give it a try.
Local Options & Limitations
I contacted a couple of local office furniture companies which offered standing desk but did not offer the option to buy the frame only. So after some online options I landed on the Flexispot ED2B.
