Motorized is 100 percent essential. It allows you to change position while doing something else such as thinking or listening to a meeting. Just push the button and stand up.

Then you can activate your sitting, standing+writing, standing+zoom meeting heights with the press of just one button. You don't even have to take your eyes off the screen.
