Ergopro Professional duo 65-130 cm electric sit/stand desk incl. free assembly

An ode to the Ergo Professional

Sit. Stand. Sit. Stand.

Put like that, it sounds like an exercise. In a way it is, because working while standing burns more calories. It is also simply a good deal healthier than sitting for hours on end. Who already has the knack of it? The Swedes. There, 70% already work at a desk like this.

Why the Ergo Professional duo sit/stand desk?

The Ergo Professional duo is the ideal desk for alternating between standing and seated work, and it creates a workstation for two people. Thanks to the electric motors in the ROL ERGO frame, the desktops adjust quickly and steplessly from the lowest position (65 cm) to the highest position (130 cm). A simple push of the button raises or lowers the top by 4 cm/s. Thanks to its wide range, the desk meets the Dutch NPR 1813 standard. The desktops can be adjusted independently of each other.

Despite its adjustable tops, the desk is extremely strong. The aluminium base can carry more than 100 kilograms, so you never need to worry about overloaded desks. The Bosch motors in the legs produce around 55 dB of noise when the desk is adjusted.

You can choose from 120x80, 140x80, 160x80, 180x80 or 200x100 centimetre tops. There is a wide choice of colours: Beech, Dark Oak, Lindberg Oak, Havana, Grey, White, Rugged Oak and Natural Oak. The dimensions apply to both tops, but you can choose two different colours. The frame is available in silver, black and white.

What makes a sit/stand desk so good?

On average, we all sit for around 13 hours a day. Various studies increasingly point to the amount of sedentary work that many people do every day. The studies all convey the same message: prolonged sitting is a real killer. That is no exaggeration, just look at the following facts:

Sitting 3 hours less per day means you live roughly 2 years longer

Sitting for longer than 2 hours at a stretch raises blood sugar, reduces blood circulation and lowers good cholesterol by 20%

The average heart rate while sitting (79 bpm) is 10 beats lower than while standing (89 bpm)

Sitting burns 2.6 kcal per minute, standing 3.3 kcal

Sitting 4 hours instead of 2 already gives a 50% higher chance of dying early. Focused purely on cardiovascular disease, that figure is 125%

It is still thought that enough exercise cancels out the negative effects of a lot of sitting. Various studies have shown this to be incorrect. The only solution is to stand more, and a sit/stand desk gives you that solution.
