Ergopro Art 55 sit/stand desk 67-116 cm incl. free assembly

An ode to the Ergo Art 55°

Sit. Stand. Sit. Stand.

Put like this, it sounds like an exercise. In a sense it is, because working while standing burns more calories. It is also simply a good deal healthier than sitting for hours on end. Who has already worked out the trick? The Swedes. Over there, 70% already work at a desk like this.

Why the Ergo Art 55° sit/stand desk?

The Ergo Art 55° is the ideal desk for alternating between standing and seated work. Thanks to two electric motors in the ROL ERGO frame, the desktop adjusts extremely quickly and steplessly from its lowest position (65 cm) to its highest position (130 cm). A simple press 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.

Despite its adjustable top, the desk is enormously strong. The aluminium base can carry more than 100 kilograms, so you never have to worry about overloading the desk. The 2 Bosch motors in the legs produce around 55 dB of noise when the desk is adjusted.

You can choose between a 160x80 or 180x80 centimetre top. There is a wide choice of colours here: Beech, Dark Oak, Lindberg Oak, Havana, Grey, White, Rustic Oak and Natural Oak. 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 sound the alarm about the amount of seated work many people do each 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 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, you burn 2.6 kcal per minute, standing 3.3 kcal

Sitting 4 hours instead of 2 already gives a 50% higher chance of dying prematurely. 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 that this is incorrect. The only solution is to stand more, and a sit/stand desk gives you exactly that.
