Best standing desks for tall people
At 6′2″ and up, many standing desks top out an inch or two short of your elbow height. That forces your wrists up and your shoulders tight when you stand.
We ranked desks for a 6′3″ person by their highest setting, and favored sturdy dual-motor frames, which wobble less at full height.

- Dual motors and three-stage legs are steadier at full height.
- A deeper desktop (30″) keeps a tall monitor at a comfortable distance.
