Review

The folks over at Standee are on a mission to change the way we live our day to day lives. According to them, we are in the middle of an epidemic that is only getting worse. And what is that epidemic? We’re all sitting down too much.

Many workers spend the majority of their day sitting at a desk or table, often using equipment that has not been ergonomically designed to suit needs. Extended periods of sitting down are proven to affect circulation, joints and posture. The Standee designers have come up with a simple solution – standing up.

In conjunction with their bamboo standing desks that sit neatly on top of a standard desk, they have released the Standee Anti Fatigue Mat. Standing might be better for your health than sitting, but it’s important that you’re standing on the right surfaces. Enter the Standee Anti Fatigue Mat – a cushioned polyurethane standing mat that combines comfort with performance.

Is the Standee Anti Fatigue Mat Worth Buying?

With close to an inch of thickness, the Standee Anti Fatigue Mat offers a level of comfort that far exceeds many anti-fatigue standing mats. It is very well made and feels sturdy. Similarly, the quality of the pad is excellent. Many standing mats can feel deep and spongy at first, but end up with deep imprints after continued use. That is not a problem here – the mat bounces back comfortably, and you never feel like you are bottoming out.

Considering the build quality and sleek design, the Standee Anti Fatigue Mat is also very fairly priced. While there are cheaper standing mats out there, these often represent a false economy, as they need replacing all too soon. Users have reporting using the Standee Anti Fatigue Mat for 12 hour shifts at cashier positions without issue, on a regular basis. If you plan on regular use, you need to invest in a mat like this that can take the punishment.

Standing mats are not for everyone. Some people find it difficult to find their balance on spongy standing mats, and feeling off balance is uncomfortable for anyone. However, most users, after a short adjusting period, really get on board with the benefits an anti-fatigue standing mat can offer. Those who spend extended periods of their day on their feet in the one spot really should consider investing in a standing mat, and when it comes to choosing one, the Standee Anti Fatigue Mat is hard to beat.
