Has anyone used those under the desk peddlers? I’m thinking of getting one to get some more activity/movement in throughout the day while working. I don’t have the means for a standing desk so can’t use a treadmill unfortunately

100% - I can easily add a few thousand steps to my day - and it eases my back and shoulder pain!

Following!!! I have wondered about these a lot!

Try flexispot. It was under $250 for a standing desk - if you already have a treadmill

I got an under the desk peddler! I really like it, takes up no space and I’ve been using it during calls pretty consistently throughout the week

Great thank you! That seems to be the most recommended option

What did you end up going with? Don’t understand how a deckscycle is $200... while others are $50

I got the $50 and am returning it... Debating between Deskcycle elliptical or cycle.

My criteria: mesh seat and back, arms, headrest

I tried cheap ones from Amazon. Expensive, second hand gaming chairs. Tried HM Aeron (second hand) and while I didn't like the bulk and the general design, I was sold on the mesh seating. I wanted to get the ErgoChair 2 from autonomous, but it doesn't have mesh seat.
