Trotten desk! Highly recommend!
I have a couple of IKEA Trotten standing desks with monitor stands clamped to them I stand over 90% of the time.
Yes. I got the Trotten from IKEA - [https://www.ikea.com/gb/en/cat/trotten-system-55989/](https://www.ikea.com/gb/en/cat/trotten-system-55989/) I got the manual one as it's guaranteed for a decade (and I hate complicated stuff that breaks). Really happy and probably change it twice a day. I'd definitely recommend it
I got it a few years ago, but the Trotten model looks to be exactly what I bought. Fairly easy to assemble, super easy to use. If you get one of the larger ones I’d recommend having a second person handy to some of the later assembly steps, since it involves flipping a fairly heavy desk.
I know you don’t want a hand crank height adjuster, but the hand crank ikea sit/stand desk is really a terrific budget option for a standing desk. Bonus is that it will literally never break, since there aren’t any cheap electronics to crap out. I have it and love it. I’m sure I’d love the one with electronics that IKEA sells, too, and with their ten year warranty I’d consider it….but you can pry my bulletproof hand crank desk out of my cold, dead hands.
Yes, I have a used Aeron and a used IKEA Trotten/Trofast desk - cannot recommend looking after your posture enough and it was all about £400
Plus one for IKEA. I have their medal hand crank standing desk... It's a fun part of the day cranking that thaaaaang
