Always called it Dave's desk, didn't want my name anywhere near the P.O.for the desk.

Must...have...chair...
You lost me right there! Might as well pitch "To Serve Man."
The sad part is that we will likely be buying these for many, many thousands of government workers, if the right bribes change hands.
I like having a choice .... my old busted back can go hurt mode either standing or sitting , Having the “adjustable desk” lets me choose.

Now there’s no excuse for not working 20 hours a day.
p.s. I went and looked, that is one butt ugly piece of furniture. $5900??? My plumber could build that for $59.
For 6k I would expect radical Steampunk style with ebony ball-tipped brass throttles and non-groaning lambskin leather with Chesterfield tufting, and don’t forget the dragon-head finials and claw feet.
If you’re the boss and that’s your chair then you can find somebody else to pick up the slack, slacker!
It's where I am right now, and where I'll spend most of the day -- putting the finishing touches on my anti-Hillary video...
Not sure, sure will be comfortable on the back, but the arms and shoulders are going to be fighting gravity all day, can’t see how that’s going to be useful.. then add to the fact that you have just increased the footprint needed for a typical cubical so companies would need to rent more office space for the same number of folks if they adopted that chair....
Can’t see this thing going mainstream.
At my new office they provided horrible chairs. I started getting backaches every day. I looked them up and they were rated for only 2-4 hours sitting time. I just went and bought my own 8-10 hour rated chair, and now everyone else in the office is jealous. Screw em, I paid for it, and they can’t tell me I can’t use it unless they want to get sued for violating the ADA :D
Attach it to a Barcalounger and they’d have more interest.
Just give me one of these, maybe with the available seatpad. I like to sit up in an attack position when I'm computering.
(the 1006 Navy Chair by Emeco, $560...and you can throw it off a six-story building and it will still be in one piece!)
I need a built-in hottie suspended from ropes.
I started with a stand up desk over 10 years ago. My neighbor was getting rid of an old electric drafting table so I can easily raise or lower it to just the right spot. I will never go back to 100% sitting but...
My wife and I just discovered the answer to back and shoulder pain. I’ve been in IT for the last 30+ years and it is so fantastic we just had to go into production and put it up on the web for sale. If it helps one person like it helped me it will be worth the expense so far. Early reviews from our friends are very encouraging.
The site is still in its infancy but it works. If you are interested check out the link at the bottom of my home page.
Oh did say inexpensive... wish I would have figured this out years ago.
A setup like this is pretty close how I’ve worked in IT for 20 years now. Chair leaned all the way back legs up on the desk. I find it very comfortable and have zero neck or back problems.
