The number of desk converters available in the market is increasing almost everyday. Because of the economical price point, desk converters prove to be an affordable entry into ergonomics market. First convert your existing desk to a standing desk with a desk converter and then move onto other ergonomic products like monitor arms, under desk keyboards and keyboard trays, mice and so forth.

While most of these converters are in the same price range and have similar features, we believe the WorkFit-TL and WorkFit-T stand apart because of the single line path of their vertical motion as well as smaller footprint, which makes them ideal for space-constrained areas. Higher height adjustment is also an additional benefit.

Here’s a comparison that will help you decide –
