Nice idea! Would love to use a "digital nomad" edition that is light-weight, can be folded and put into the backpack.

@goldenhorse13 @alex_kaul Seconded, I would love a travel edition of this. Mouse and phone space not necessary, just keep it small and lightweight!

This is a brilliant idea-- I've worked in the office furniture vertical for 20 years and this is amazing. Many companies don't want to spend the money on sit stand desks--- the ones from IKEA and the other low end providers at below $400 don't last as I've thrown more of them out for clients in the past year than I can remember. This gives people an option and furthermore a device like this can be used in conference rooms-- no manufacturer has ever addressed sit stand in a conference environment Also by using the chairs up/down you have a simple way to adjust the height Well done

Thank you @workstationw! So grateful to have the support of an expert in the office furniture space like yourself. We have definitely gone through dozens of other solutions ourselves - although there are high quality standing desks out there, they get expensive quickly. We're excited to get something out there that's flexible and affordable for startups and big teams. $99 allows more people to be healthy and that's what we're interested in. Thank you for your comment Bill - always welcome and appreciate feedback!

My bad back doesn't allow me to use a standing desk, but I'm incredibly excited to purchase one of these to assist with my team's daily stand ups. It's awkward bending over to operate a computer on a meeting room table. Brining the laptop up to the height of a chair's back would be a perfect solution.

Excited to hear @magnuson! Many of our customers like to use StorkStand as an easy podium for presentations or meeting with clients. It gives standing meetings a new meaning! Thanks so much for your comment, Charles. Really appreciate your message!

Pretty cool - It would be great to have a high friction top to avoid accidental slips of laptop/items.

Love the suggestion @ajeetsk! Our new bamboo desktop is surprisingly slip resistant. Of course we don't want anyone's laptop to be in danger!

You demo the product with a lot of Aeron-type chairs which have a thin back that is pretty easy to clamp onto -- I'd like to see more examples of the desk on a chair that has a back cushion.

Thank you for your suggestion @mimi_wong! Although most companies use task chairs similar in style to the Aeron chair (thin mesh chair back with rigid frame), StorkStand is really easily adjustable to accommodate thick chair backs up to 4.5 inches wide. We realize that everyone has different preferences and some prefer a comfy, leather executive chair. So we wanted to make sure that StorkStand was flexible enough to work seamlessly with as many chairs as possible. We'll make it a point to share more examples of StorkStand on thick chair backs as well. Thanks so much for your feedback, Mimi!

I'm a happy backer of the original StorkStand but these updates are rad! Love the upgrade to slip-resistant bamboo (I may have had a near spill early in my testing the product). I know standing desks are a given in tech communities but now that you're offering StorkStand 2 at a more accessible price point, it would be cool to see how the customer base opens up. I bet some of my teacher friends would really dig having this for themselves or as an option for students.

Thank you so much for your post @yas_pas! We're always grateful to hear from our current users - you guys are the inspiration for StorkStand 2! I love that you mentioned StorkStand for teachers - we are really excited to support StandUpKids.org to do our part in getting young students using standing desks in the classroom, something we know can really have a huge impact long-term. We took to heart all your feedback and are very excited to implement many of the improvements you've suggested, including streamlining our manufacturing processes to get our price way down. Very grateful for all your support, Yasi! You are awesome!
