  • FAQ

    What is a desk riser?
    A desk riser sits on top of your existing desk to create a flexible sit-stand setup. It lets you easily adjust your screen and workspace height without replacing your current desk.

    Are desk risers good for ergonomics?
    Yes! Desk risers make it easy to switch between sitting and standing throughout the day, which supports healthier posture and movement. This flexibility helps reduce strain from prolonged sitting while keeping your body more active.

    Can a desk riser turn any desk into a standing desk?
    Absolutely. A desk riser converts most flat surfaces into adjustable workstations, giving you the benefits of a standing desk in minutes — no installation or tools required.

    How do you choose the right desk riser?
    Look for a riser that fits your desk size and supports your monitor setup. Consider weight capacity, surface area, and lift range to ensure stability and comfortable adjustability for your workspace.

    Do desk risers help with neck and back pain?
    They can. By encouraging regular movement and allowing you to alternate positions, a desk riser helps prevent the stiffness that comes from staying seated too long. Elevating your screen and keyboard also promotes upright posture.

Product details

Overview
Dimensions

For years, standing desk converters have offered a practical path to sit-stand working—perfect for those who want better ergonomics without replacing a cherished desk or making room for a dedicated standing desk. Unfortunately, they've also long been characterized by industrial aesthetics that dominate your workspace. After three years of design and extensive engineering, we developed an innovative open-frame architecture that combines safe and stable height adjustment with a minimal aesthetic that enhances any space.

Our breakthrough in form and function starts with an open frame that appears as thoughtful as it performs—with a spring-assisted mechanism that supports smooth transitions between sitting and standing, a comfort edge to reduces pressure points, and a minimal footprint that respects mixed-use spaces. Whether at home or in the office, the Desk Riser offers the freedom to work how you want, where you want—with no tools or complex setup required. Add the optional shelf to elevate screens and create a more expansive workspace that adapts to your needs.

    Sturdy, Beautiful, Functional!

    First of all, the riser is aesthetically perfect! Second, its spacious enough for my All-In-One Dell, keyboard, coffee and all office needs. I bought it as I needed a standing desk but didnt want to replace my actual desk. I now have a walking pad that I use with it during work hours - am I'm loving the entire set-up. Thank you Branch for creating the best Desk Riser on the market!

    Functional and Attractive

    I like my antique library table and did not want to give it up for a standing desk. The desk riser fits the bill for a very stable work surface and the contrast between the aluminum and natural wood surface against the mahogany top looks great.

    Standing Desk

    I LOVE this adjustable mobile standing desk. First off, it's nice looking, it fits with the larger desk that it sits upon. Second, it's sturdy, it is built to last and to function. Third, the lever that raises it up and lowers it down, it works really well, allows me to adjust things even mid-meeting without any difficulty.

    OUTSTANDING!

    I am a psychologist and do a few days of all Zoom sessions back to back and like to sit on the floor when I do them. I had a standing desk but it wasn't high enough and I was look down and began to have posture problems requiring PT. Then I found his Branch Desk Riser and it solved all my issues. I happen to put my laptop on a small laptop riser stand on this Branch Riser and while this all required some figuring out, I am beyond thrilled with my set up and and keep my neck straight the whole day!

    The desk is EXTREMELY sturdy, unlike the flimsy one I was using. I simply love it and did end up getting the attachment which adds more room for papers. I now have a huge space to keep a beverage, sticky notes, etc. I did get a desk chair mat to go under it to make it slide easily. This Riser is heavy and sturdy. I literally could not be happier with my setup, or this product!
