Ark HN: Any Using Standing Desk at Work?

We are a young startup, about 13 people in our office. 2-3 of us use a standing desk.

Almost every job I've worked in the past twenty years around Seattle has let me have the choice of a standing desk. I know that some of my coworkers definitely preferred to have the stand up style of desk and were fairly productive in them. I took the standing option once and after two years of it, I found I prefer to sit "most of the time", especially so when I'm working on code. I found that after requesting the standup desk, I found a bit of guilt as I didn't want to stand most of the time. I compromised with a tall chair and a large foot rest instead of having facilities switch the desk back to sitting. This let me have a sitting desk that I could stand on occasion, but I could tolerate hopping down from the tall chair for only two years. I went back to sitting full time. Towards the end of my tenure my employer purchased sit/stand desks for everyone. Those were quite nice but pricey - I'd like to find one for my home office, but in the mean time, a sit down desk and taking regular walking breaks in the neighborhood seems to work for me.

I started using a standing desk at my home office (I work remotely).

It takes some time to adjust too, after sitting for years, but is totally worth it.

I still have a chair that I probably sit in an hour a day, on calls or taking breaks.

I've seen some neat hybrid solutions at companies I've worked for (that let you, with the switch of a button, transition between standing and sitting height for your monitor and keyboard).
