I love my Aeron! It was an impulse buy at a Design Within Reach outlet a few months ago. Scored the full functional model for $499 (regularly $1700). Best home office investment ever!

If you want premium and are willing to spend up for it, check iMovR Lander desk. It's the category leader in my view.

If you're looking for a standing desk converter for your current desk, iMovr also makes a product called the ZipLift that I got a few weeks back. Highly recommend. Did a lot of research and really think it's the one to go with

I bought the uplift desk for my wife and made her a wood table top out of old heart of pine.

You can order just the legs and lift kit and various accessories like I did but you can also order it with your choice of desktop as well. It’s a great product. Highly recommend the clamp on power accessory in addition to an undermining power strip. Their monitor arms are really good too.

Can’t go wrong with this. Value for the money you spent.

I am lucky to have mild symptoms.

I do have 1 symptom which is troubling. I feel extreme anxiousness. I have trouble sitting still and trouble sleeping. I have trouble concentrating. The doctor says anxiety is a somewhat common symptom and that Cedars Sinai is studying the potential for long term impact.

Anyone else experience this? I have never felt this before. I have a huge new appreciation for those who suffer from anxiety on a regular basis in everyday life.
