I want to use this for a treadmill desk as well as adjust it for a sit down desk. How easy is it to adjust height and will it hold up to daily adj?

It's very flexible. I'm a music producer and I use them for powered amp speakers. they are fairly light-weight but durable. Very easy to adjust height. Just make sure that after you adjust to the proper height that the pin is inserted to prevent an unwanted or sudden drop in height.

The height is somewhat adjustable. Since it's all "put together" plasic pieces, the are a couple of pieces that can be left out to make the total height lower. It's simple. However, I did measure it and it may just be able to slid under a 25-inch desk (though the top shelf would be unuseable). I like mine. Serves its purpose.

yes. I brought it for my son. So he uses it all the time for sitting on the couch. He does change the height for standing, but not often. If you are a jack rabbit, like me, I am always up and down, it might get tiresome. But if you leave standing to should work fine. The price is good. PS I have a rolling, adjustable standing/sitting desk with a hydralyic level, but is was $300.00. It was worth it because I was developing hip/back problems and I use the computer constantly for work.

My treadmill is a "TreadDesk" brand specially designed for standing desks, it's total height is 4 inches from the floor. I set the TrekDesk in the shortest holes, marked F on the side slots to create the shortest desk possible. It measures 46.5 inches from the floor to the work surface. I'm 5'6.5" tall and this setting is just barely comfortable for me. I would prefer the desk be an inch or maybe two shorter. When I add the keyboard on top of the desk, the crook of my arm have to reach up a bit forming an angle a bit less than 90 degrees. This feels a bit "tight" to me, like I always have to hold my arms with bicep tension to reach the keys. I think this desk is designed to work with the more common treadmills that have much taller bases. I'd say mark 46.5 inches on the wall in front of your treadmill then, while standing on the treadmill imagine your keyboard is resting on top of that mark, does it feel comfortable? That's the only way I can think to pre-test the height. For my height treadmill I'd say 5'6.5" is the minimum height this desk fits but it has tons of room for extending it taller and most treadmills are taller than mine. Hope that helps. :)

What size is this treadmill's foot print? I'm trying to figure out if it would fit under my standing desk. Amazon has the dimensions assembled, but not just the base.Thanks!

Its adjustable actually, To tell you the truth I need to measure it myself but I really think that unless your desk is a rare 8 foot high desk I think you should be alright. Ive never had to adjust this to the highest level it would go.

I don't think it's tall enough for a treadmill. You'll have to look down in order to use it. You COULD use it, probably if you put it on a step stool and then you could swing it over in front of you. There may be better options out there? Good luck with your search!

I would suggest adjusting first, then placing laptop on it. Easy to do. Great little desk.

I have the shorter track which is plenty long for any desk. FYI Just make sure you mount the track in the correct place or it won't pull out and up correctly, I had to remount mine. I love this. I have a executive desk and was using the desk for the mouse and keyboard, it was too high and I started having shoulder aches and lost the mobility in my right shoulder. After a few months of using this I gained full mobility back.

I think it was easy to adjust, as I remember. Not sure about how high it will go, sorry, it's been a long time since we bought it and returned it. It probably would work pretty well if you are sitting at a table, just not on a soft surface because it wouldn't stay upright for us.

Yes, this has a very good range of motion. The key is to adjust the different tension points so it stays when you want, but can be easily shifted when you don't. You can actually get the bottom of the monitor below the mounting surface if you mount the arm low enough on the vertical component. I use it with two 24" monitors on a desk/table that raises and lowers, so I can use this sitting or standing and it meets all of my range needs. I am 6', so that is a good range.

Specs say 29 to 34 inches, which is about right from my experience. Adjustment takes a few minutes, you would have to removed everything from the top, take off the sides (easy, they snap off), loosen four thumbscrews, hold the (heavy) top at the new height, and tighten the thumbscrews. Also, to move it down you might have to move the keyboard shelf, which screws to the moveable uprights. So, a lot of work.Note that this is NOT a stand up computer desk, there is a different Safco stand up desk.

I weighed about 270 when I started using it and there were no problems. I did have to re-tighten the desk bolts and one person said that they could hear me walking on a conference call, but the treadmill was fine.

It is not "quick release" or adjust on-the-fly, by say, moving a lever or pressing a "button". So you can't sit at it and adjust it up-down, up-down, up-down on demand by hand while you sit there. It's not like one of those hospital carts that do that. You would need to use a tool - screwdriver or socket - I forget and I'm not in front of the table at the moment to check for you - loosen the bolts, set the height, and then tighten it back up. Doing this isn't hard at all in my opinion, but you do have to use tools and set a fixed height.

The top of the work surface is exactly 28 inches high where I have mine set. There is some adjustment for height but even at the highest setting 36 inches is the max you can get out of it. I have been using this desk for about 18 months now for my main work station for doing watch repair and scale aircraft modeling. I purchased a very nice office desk chair to go with it that has an adjustable height and I am 100% pleased. The surface top is huge with more than enough room to spread projects out on without knocking them off the table. It has proven to be a very stable work surface for my needs. At only 28 inches it does not sound like what you are looking for though. The surface does tilt up from the back but absolutely no way you could use it standing up unless you are about three feet tall.

When you raise the desk, it moves toward you a few inches. I don't use it with a treadmill. I think you're asking if it will do that, and so the answer is a conditional yes. I'm out of town now so I can't be more definitive. If you can wait until Friday, I'll give you more detail.

It's pretty easy to adjust, if your just talking about tilting the monitor up and down. To actually change the height of the monitor, you would have to learn a screw and tighten again at the desired height.
