"I don't think sit-stand desk is such a good idea. Sitting and standing for long periods of time is not good for your health." I have had a standing desk for about seven years. For what it's worth, I only work at a desk about 10-15 hours per week. I have found that I feel best when cycling between standing, sitting and lying down. In fact, there are certain kinds of work that I find myself completing more efficiently and enjoyably in different physical configurations. I like to stand at my desk for phone calls and support interactions but I like to lie down on my couch for research/reading. I have indeed found that standing for 4-6 hours doesn't feel all that great, but in different ways that sitting for 4-6 hours doesn't feel great. So I have a standing desk, a chair, and a couch and cycle between them depending on what kind of work I am doing.
