    Figuring out how to get the maximum benefit from your standing desk takes a bit of effort. It's not that the furniture is so complicated that you'll need a special class in how to use standing desk workstations. It's more that each person's body and work day are different. Finding the best way to use a standing desk takes a bit of fine tuning, but that's the best way to ensure an ongoing standing desk habit.

    When people are more comfortable, they are more productive.The issue with sit and stand desk is that they take too long to lower or raise the desk to the right height. This time creates an interruption in flow, a state that is hard to regain – according to a UC Irvine study, it can take up to 25 minutes to get back on task. Pneumatic desks, with their ability to adjust faster than the fastest electric models – a minimum of 8 times faster – dramatically reduce distracting work interruptions.

    Another area where electric standing desks have struggled with efficiency is maintenance. Service issues waste time and again interrupt your flow. Maintenance delays can occur when the table control isn't reset correctly after a loss of power, or when a power spike or collision occurs, rendering the desk annoyingly malfunctioning until it can be serviced. With the simpler design of pneumatic standing desk mechanisms, users experience none of those service issues. Move the desk from one place to another, or work straight through a power outage – the adjustability of the pneumatic desk is unaffected.

    Standing desk users are usually quick to embrace them, but there are some annoying quirks with sit stand corner desk designs that affect adoption – things like noise and ease of use. Some people find the “whine” of electric motors distracting or annoying. Others find that understanding how to operate the desk and adjust it properly takes more training than you might expect. Quiet operating pneumatic standing desks are engineered to eliminate bothersome noise that might distract other workers. And intuitive counter-balanced design means that training time for users to learn how to operate the pneumatic table is virtually nonexistent. Users can begin operating them immediately without barriers to acceptance.
