Value

For Standing Desks, A healthy used market can lower effective ownership cost and keep durable products circulating when needs change.

What to inspect

For resale value retention, look for serviceable condition, recognizable model identity, transferable support, standard accessories, active used listings, and evidence that key wear parts can be renewed. Category-specific inspection guidance: Measure the keyboard or desktop height that gives each user relaxed shoulders and roughly elbow-height input devices in both seated and standing positions; do not rely only on a maker's user-height chart. Confirm that the advertised range applies with the chosen top installed, and allow for shoes, casters, or a keyboard tray. OSHA's purchasing guide gives broad reference ranges of 22–30 inches for seated keyboard height and 36–46.5 inches for standing work, but individual measurements should decide the fit.
