Editorial Policy
Purpose
Our goal is to help you pick a standing desk that fits your body and lasts. We publish independent, test‑driven reviews and guides that put fit, stability, and serviceability first.
Independence and funding
We do not sell desks. We may use affiliate links that can earn a commission if you buy through them, at no extra cost to you. Commissions never influence our coverage, scoring, or placement. We do not accept payment for positive reviews or guaranteed features.
Product selection
We prioritize models that add value for unusual height ranges, small or shared spaces, and long‑term serviceability. We consider reader requests, market relevance, and availability.
Review process
- Acquire: Retail purchase or standard loaner with no editorial control; pre‑production or cherry‑picked units are declined.
- Test: Apply our published protocols for fit, stability, noise/speed, surface durability, safety, and serviceability.
- Verify: Cross‑check specs against manufacturer documentation and user reports; contact brands for clarification when needed.
- Publish: Present results with measurement ranges, trade‑offs, and clear recommendations by use case and body size.
Updates and corrections
We revisit content when products change or new data emerges. Corrections are timestamped with what changed and why. Email [email protected] to report an error.
Samples, gifts, and conflicts
Loaners must include a return label and may be returned after testing. We decline gifts valued beyond nominal tokens and disclose any non‑retail arrangements. Contributors must disclose conflicts of interest; conflicted staff do not cover that brand or product.
Affiliate and ads policy
Affiliate relationships are handled separately from editorial. Retailers/brands do not preview content or influence verdicts. If we ever introduce display ads, they will be labeled and segregated from editorial.
Community and feedback
We welcome reader input, including data that challenges our findings. Civility is required. We reserve the right to moderate or remove abusive content.
Accessibility and inclusion
We aim for clear language, alt text for essential images, and guidance relevant to a wide range of body sizes and abilities. Tell us how we can improve.
