Best standing desk converters

In its favour

• At 106.7 cm wide, the top has room for two monitors side by side.
• The keyboard tray runs the full width and rises in sync with the top surface.

• The top is only 39.9 cm deep, which leaves little room behind the screens.

In its favour

• The 60 cm deep main deck gives more room for monitors than most converters.
• A wireless charger, dual USB ports and a safety lock are built into the handset area.
