The people
behind your desk
We’re a small team in Grand Rapids, Michigan, with a fondness for desks that do things a little differently. Our pneumatic desks are assembled by hand here, and we’d love to help you find one you’ll enjoy making your own.
A familiar team
Most of us have been here since the early days, and we’ve come to know these desks inside out. There’s a lot of pride in the work, but also a simple enjoyment in making something a little out of the ordinary.
A desk becomes part of the place where someone spends their day. We like thinking about that: the home offices, busy workplaces and community spaces where ours will end up.
How we came to be
Our story began with Kessebohmer Ergonomics USA, which opened in 2016 as part of the Kessebohmer global group. Back then, our desks were usually bought through suppliers furnishing offices.
We wanted to make those desks available to people furnishing a space of their own, too. So in 2019, we opened The Standing Desk. It gave us a way to bring the collection directly to you, with the people behind it just a phone call away.
We’re happy to talk it through
Choosing a desk can take a little thought. If you’d like another pair of eyes on your plans, we’re happy to talk them through with you. You don’t need to know all the specifications before you call.
That personal attention continues after your desk arrives. If you need a hand getting it set up or a question comes up later, you’re welcome to get back in touch.
Call us at (616) 330-1023 or send us a note.
“I’ve talked with customer service for both purchases and they are always very fast to respond and extremely helpful.”

Give it a little time
Living with a desk tells you more than looking at it online. Our 30-day trial gives you time to try it in your own space, starting when delivery is complete.
Keep the original boxes and packing materials until you’ve decided; they’re required for a return. We cover eligible return shipping, with no restocking fee.
Your desk also comes with a five-year limited warranty. We’re happy to explain the coverage for your model and how you plan to use it.
