The standing desk, sadly, was something I had to pay for – and it wasn’t cheap.īut now, a solid two years later, nearly all of my back problems have disappeared.

My favorite options are the ones listed at the top of this post – and, yes, they are in order of awesomeness. In the end, I think I tried and tested about nine or ten iMac stands. I got myself a bunch of iMac stands, either through my own pocket or ones sent to me for review, following a request I put out in the wires. I mean, just look at it – it is stunning! Pin The Epic Grovemade Wood Desk Shelf – 100% Hand-Made & Just $220įor this particular post, however, I wanted to focus on standard iMac stands – ones designed for use with a single display. It’d be this beauty from Portland-based Grovemade. But if I ever get a second, I know EXACTLY which iMac stand I’d get. I then ordered an iMac stand to ensure my display was at the exact right height so as not to cause my neck any grief. The first thing I did was get myself a standing desk (more on that in a second). This is fine for a day or two, but over 10 years, the effects compound – and not in a good way.įor this reason, I made two adjustments to my home office, following the advice of my local back-cracker (chiropractor). Turns out I had my display at the wrong angle and height and this put unnecessary strain on my neck muscles. I run and exercise regularly, but my job had basically screwed my neck up. When you spend hours looking at a screen, you start to realize, after a few years, that if you’re not doing it right your neck starts acting up – and this requires trips to a chiropractor. I work from home and my job mainly consists of staring a computer screen all day with intermittent breaks for coffee and walks with my dog. Why I Bought An iMac Stand In The First Place

And if you rate functionality and I/O above good-looks and design, then the relatively inexpensive Vaydeer USB 3.0 Wireless Stand is the one to go for. It ain’t the prettiest iMac stand on the list but it is damn functional. The second is to do with its I/O – the Vaydeer USB 3.0 Wireless Stand has four USB ports for connecting up things like phone chargers, external hard drives, and, of course, USB drives.


Just place your phone on the stand and it will charge. The first is that it supports wireless charging, thanks to its built-in wireless charging platform.
