Eureka Ark Executive Standing Desk
The Eureka Ark Executive Standing Desk combines heavy-duty design with minimalist modern aesthetics — with the added benefit of not sitting for hours at a time. Measuring 63 x 29 inches, the Ark Executive Desk features a raising mechanism with two quiet motors and three-stage legs that raise the desk from 27 inches to a max height of 49 inches. The desk raises and lowers at the touch of a button, with two preset options and an anti-collision system to prevent mishaps. A raised monitor stand and two smooth-glide drawers provide ample storage options, with three USB ports, two outlets, and a wireless charging pad built into the top. Almost completely handmade, the Ark is dressed in solid walnut veneer, making it the centerpiece of any office, at home or on the job.
