"Why is a Standing Desk Converter the best option for you?"
If your “office” is really just your kitchen table (and you have to relinquish it at dinner time), or you want to transform your existing desk at work into a stand up desk, you might consider a standing desktop converter— also known as a riser.
Converters use clever mechanics to transform most surfaces— tables, existing fixed-height desks, and even low bookshelves— into a standing desk, getting you moving in a small space and on an equally small budget.
We offer two options, each with their own strengths. Learn more about our Cora Standing Desk Converter and Cooper Standing Desk Converter below.

Cora standing desk converter
Cora
Small but mighty
Cora is just 1.3” tall when completely flat. Press the side levers and give a little lift, and it blossoms into a desktop that can hold 22 pounds and extend to 15.7” tall. It also fits perfectly on a standard dorm room desk, and easily slides under your bed, in a closet, or under the couch when not in use.
With Cora, you can get up out of your chair and moving for around $179.
Cooper standing desk converter
Cooper
Bigger with a built-in keyboard tray
Boasting ample surface area and a keyboard tray that adds even more room and the ability to get your hands into a better posture. A smooth, silent hydraulic cylinder lifts this stand up desk converter as much as 16”, hitting every measurement in between. And Cooper is tough. It can lift 35 pounds of computer hardware. You can even attach a Jarvis Monitor Arm.
Cooper starts at just $299. That’s a great price for a standing desk converter that hits all the heights you need. The ample space and superior materials are what set it apart from other desk converters online.

We engineered the proprietary powder-coated finish to ensure incredible durability, enclosing the entire desktop so there are absolutely no seams—not even around the edges. You’ll notice a very subtle texture that gives EcoTop an organic feel. The result is a clean, minimalist look that creates an empty canvas for your workspace.

These slices are then dyed, layered, and pressed before being flat cut and restacked into a block. The result is not only environmentally friendly, but consistently beautiful. Our strict reforestation standards ensure that only one mature tree per three acres is cut down and that a new tree is planted in its place, every time.

Master woodworker Vincent Leman has created Jarvis desktops with some really handsome, custom versions with built-in drawers. Take a look at Jarvis Albright (starting at $2,349) and Jarvis Evolve (starting at $2,299). He hews his desktops from solid walnut, cherry, oak, and maple in his studio on the shore of Lake Michigan, where the hardwoods grow. He has a line of modern furniture called Rocket Mission. It’s his take on the Mission style. Jarvis Albright is his very modern take on the Carlton House Desk, an English icon.

With a patented height-adjustment mechanism and an easy assembly process, the design is elegantly simple, but not simplistic. You really have to see it to believe how the height adjusts with no motors or gears.

A good fit if:
- You want something small while still making a statement.
- You prefer a manually operated standing desk that doesn’t require electricity to adjust the height.
