Other commenters have noted that the desk isn't adjustable. I bought a Varidesk ( http://www.varidesk.com/ ); doesn't need any motors, adjusts quickly, fits on existing desks, cost is under $US400. [No, I don't work for them nor am I an investor in the company. I just like the product. A lot.] Edit to fix link.

I also had a varidesk and wasn't too fond of it. There was no real good way to place a keyboard/mouse on the tray and it was a bit wobbly for my tastes.

The product itself was well built, and it was very easy to move up and down though.

Another worth consideration is the Winston: http://www.lcdarms.com/winston-sit-stand-workstation.php

Of the sit-stand converters I've been looking into, the Varidesk and Winston seem better than products like the Kangaroo Pro, ReadyDesk, etc.

This looks to be a great solution! How hard is it to transform from sitting to standing and vice versa?

Takes less than 10 seconds. Just squeeze handles at sides and lift or lower. It's spring-assisted.

I know that SimplifiedBuilding.com Does offer Adjustable desks. It looks like Donnie just chose not to go for that option.
