I know this isn't meant to be a footrest - but it works excellently well as one.
Modern footrests all tilt. This is all very well, but there are a lot of reasons why you don't need a footrest to tilt. If you could choose 'tilt' or 'fixed' with the footrests, that would be fine - but you can't. It's tilt or nothing.
If you want to be constantly shifting around in your office seat then that's a Good Thing, but actually if you need the exercise (and you do) you're far better getting up and moving around properly every so often. The alternative, in the way of an ever-shifting footrest, is not actually very comfortable.
If you want a footrest because your desk is too high and you need to raise your chair height, thereby making it difficult for your legs to sit comfortably on the floor, you have a problem. This problem used to be solved by the use of telephone books or VAT regulations books (about the only purpose they ever served), but neither of these useful volumes exist any more so that's no good. So what do you do?
Well you can get a footrest (actually lots of different footrests), but they all tilt. So you can't get into the necessary position (legs forming a right angle with your body, feet flat on the floor, back straight, arms forming a right angle with your body - you know the drill) for more than a couple of seconds. Keep on rockin'...
However with this excellent piece of kit, you can get just what you need (the twenty-first century equivalent of a couple of telephone books, or a VAT regulations book, or suchlike), and make it just the right height to suit you.
This 'monitor stand' is plenty sturdy enough and is so basic that it will outlast you and/or your office life - and it's cheap.
Just the job!
