Standing desks in Ireland: our picks and where to buy them

We started out importing and supplying standing desks in Ireland back in 2014. Today, we put that experience to work helping you compare desks, understand what matters, and find the right setup from suppliers serving Ireland.

Where a desk ships from matters as much as what it costs. Most best-standing-desk lists are written for the UK, and a desk that looks cheap on a UK website can cost a lot more by the time it reaches Cork. FlexiSpot’s own UK store adds £100 per item to orders going to Ireland.

We checked stock, delivery and shop prices on 25 October 2026. Amazon prices change daily, so we don’t print them here. Click through and check.

Some links on this page are affiliate links. If you buy through one, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. As an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases. HuntOffice, IKEA and Triace don’t pay us anything, and commission doesn’t decide what we recommend.

Budget electric desks

HOMCOM electric desk from Aosom: the cheapest we found

This is the cheapest electric standing desk we found with a full-size top. Aosom sells the HOMCOM desk for €123.99 at 140 x 60cm, or €114.99 at 120 x 60cm, with free delivery to Irish addresses. It has one motor rated at 50dB, a 72 to 118cm range, a 70kg limit and memory buttons.

Two things to know before you order. The listing has no reviews yet, and Aosom ships it from its UK warehouse, so check the checkout total for import charges (more on that below). Aosom also sells a Vinsetto 140 x 70cm electric desk with a wood-effect top for €218.99.

FlexiSpot Lite: the budget desk with a track record

If you work on a laptop, or a laptop and one monitor, this is the safer cheap buy. It’s a small electric desk with a 110 x 54cm top, memory buttons for your sitting and standing heights, and a motor FlexiSpot rates at under 50dB. The listing has hundreds of reviews averaging 4.6 stars.

FlexiSpot’s UK store sells it through Amazon.ie, and delivery to Ireland was free when we checked. That’s the same company charging £100 extra on its own website, so go through Amazon. The Amazon.ie listing doesn’t give the height range or the warranty, so ask the seller if either matters to you.

The catch is depth. 54cm is shallow, and a 27-inch monitor on this desk will sit closer to your face than you’d like. If that’s your setup, FlexiSpot sells the same Lite frame with a 140 x 60cm top.

Dellonda DH245 from Triace: the cheapest from an Irish shop

Triace is an Irish-owned shop in Fermoy, Co. Cork, trading since 1981. It mostly sells power washers and tools, which makes it an odd place to buy a desk, but it stocks Dellonda’s standing desks at prices that undercut most Irish office suppliers.

The DH245 has a 140 x 70cm top, one motor rated under 50dB, memory presets and a 70kg limit. It was €230.63 including VAT when we checked. Delivery is the catch. The desk weighs over 40kg, so it travels on a pallet at €79.95, which brings it to €310.58 delivered. If you live near Fermoy, collection is free. The listing doesn’t give a height range or warranty for the full desk.

Mid-range electric desks

Viking Realspace: two motors for under €400

Viking Direct’s own-brand Realspace desk has two motors, a 65 to 130cm range and a 100kg load limit on a 140 x 80cm top. It costs €392.37 including VAT, and Viking delivers free anywhere in Ireland on orders over €75 before VAT. That makes it the cheapest delivered dual-motor desk on this page.

Delivery takes 5 to 10 working days. The listing doesn’t state a warranty, so ask before you buy. If you want more room, the 160 x 80cm version costs €442.79.

IKEA MITTZON: the long warranty

IKEA’s electric MITTZON has two motors, a 62 to 126cm height range and a 10-year guarantee. The 120 x 80cm version costs €410 and the 140 x 80cm version costs €435. The 140cm desk had 4.7 stars from 306 reviews on IKEA’s Irish site when we checked.

The load limit is 80kg, plenty for a normal two-monitor setup. Delivery is priced at checkout by Eircode. IKEA’s heavy-parcel delivery starts at €15 and truck delivery at €50, and you can book assembly too.

HuntOffice Core Electric: buy from an Irish office supplier

HuntOffice is an Irish-owned office supplier from Newcastle West, Co. Limerick, with showrooms in Dublin, Limerick, Cork and Kilkenny. Its Core Electric desk costs €427.98 including VAT in the 120 x 80cm size, or €442.19 at 140 x 80cm. That’s more than some desks above, and the extra money buys you:

• an 80cm-deep top, so a big monitor sits at a sensible distance
• a 5-year guarantee
• assembly by their own installers if you want it (€200 for the first desk, €40 for each one after)
• a proper VAT invoice, if you’re buying through a business
• delivery in 3 to 5 days in Dublin, 5 to 10 days elsewhere

It has one motor, a 73 to 121.5cm height range, a 97kg limit and two memory presets. Delivery for bulky items is quoted at checkout. For two motors, the Zoom desk at 120 x 80cm costs €517.82 and has four presets. Check the warranty before you order it. The Zoom listing says 10 years in one place and 5 in another.

FlexiSpot EC5 Pro: for heavy kit and the widest height range

This one has a motor in each leg. Two motors lift more weight, so the frame is rated for 160kg, against 50 to 80kg on most single-motor desks. You won’t put 160kg on it, but two large monitors on arms won’t come near the limit.

The height range is the better reason to buy it: 62cm to 127cm. Most budget frames bottom out around 72cm, which is too high for a lot of shorter people sitting down. 127cm at the top covers tall people with room to spare.

It comes with a 140 x 80cm one-piece top (no join down the middle) and FlexiSpot gives the frame a 7-year warranty. One caveat: it’s a new listing on Amazon.ie with no reviews yet. If you’d rather buy something with a track record, the MAIDeSITe S2 Pro also has two motors, 83 reviews averaging 4.7 stars and a 72 to 120cm range. It charged for delivery when we checked.

Premium: solid wood desks

Oakywood in Poland and ErgoHide in Slovenia both make solid wood desks in their own workshops inside the EU. They cost far more than anything else on this page, and most of the extra goes on the top: real oak or walnut, oiled by hand, or a cheaper veneer at Oakywood.

Oakywood Standing Desk Touch

Both Oakywood models have two motors and come in six sizes from 120 x 60cm to 170 x 85cm. The Touch costs €1,099 in oak veneer at 140 x 70cm, or €1,299 in solid oak. Its 67 to 132cm range suits tall people better than most desks here, though shorter people may find the bottom end too high. It comes with a 5-year warranty. Its 68kg load limit includes the tabletop itself, and solid wood is heavy, so check what’s left for your kit.

Oakywood Standing Desk Pro

The Pro uses a frame from LINAK, the Danish maker whose motors go into a lot of office desks. It has a 63 to 128cm range, a 100kg limit including the top and a 10-year warranty. It costs €1,399 in oak veneer at 140 x 70cm, or €1,699 in solid oak.

Oakywood ships from the EU and includes duties and taxes in its prices, so you won’t face import charges. Shipping is calculated at checkout. The desks are made to order: when we checked, the site quoted 7 to 9 weeks before dispatch, then 3 to 5 working days to Ireland. Returns are accepted within 30 days.

ErgoHide solid wood desks

ErgoHide makes its desks in Slovenia and sells them through Amazon.ie. The tops are 25mm solid oak or walnut from FSC-certified timber, hand-oiled, in rectangular or “ergonomic” shapes from 120 x 80cm up to 180 x 80cm. There are L-shaped corner desks too. The frame runs from 63 to 128cm, is rated at 43dB and stores four height presets.

The plain 120 x 80cm desk takes 140kg including the top. The versions with a built-in cable compartment, which hides a power strip and router under wooden lids, are rated at 100kg. ErgoHide covers every part for 5 years. The desks shipped in 6 to 10 days and carried a delivery charge to Ireland when we checked, and the listings had almost no reviews yet.

Desk converters

VIVO 81cm: the converter we’d buy

A converter sits on your existing desk and lifts your screen and keyboard to standing height. There’s almost no assembly, and you keep the desk you have.

VIVO’s 80 x 40cm top takes two smaller monitors, and the keyboard tray underneath rises with it. It lifts straight up, from 11.4cm to 50.8cm above your desk, and handles 15kg. VIVO gives it a 3-year warranty. It ships from VIVO’s US store through Amazon.ie, and delivery to Ireland was free when we checked.

Your desk needs to be at least 80cm wide.

More about the VIVO converter

ERGOMAKER 55cm: for a laptop or one screen

The 55 x 40cm top suits a laptop or a single monitor, with a 58 x 27cm keyboard tray below. It lifts by hand from 13cm to 39cm and holds 10kg on top. Stock was low when we checked. If it’s gone, ERGOMAKER’s 91cm version gives you more room.

Converter or full desk?

A converter costs less and takes five minutes to set up. In exchange, your workspace shrinks to the size of the platform, and a big metal box sits on your desk while you’re sitting down. If you plan to stand for more than an hour or two a day, a full electric desk is the better buy.

Mats, chairs and cable trays

Anti-fatigue mat

If you stand on a hard floor for more than half an hour at a time, get a mat. Tiles, laminate and floorboards get uncomfortable faster than you’d expect. If you switch between sitting and standing every half hour or so, a mat matters less.

The Duronic DM-MAT1 is a cushioned, waterproof rubber mat that costs a fraction of the sculpted premium ones. Be wary of oddly expensive mats from third-party sellers on Amazon.ie. We found one listed at €266 with a 3 to 5 week wait. Our anti-fatigue mat guide has more.

A tall chair for perching

Standing all day isn’t the goal, and a tall chair lets you lean or perch with the desk at standing height. Aosom’s Vinsetto standing desk chair is a mesh drafting chair with lumbar support and a foot ring that adjusts from 21 to 49cm. It’s rated for 110kg, costs €119.99 and ships from Aosom’s UK warehouse.

Under-desk cable tray

A tray under the desk keeps cables off the floor, so nothing snags or unplugs when the desk moves. Oakywood’s under-desk cable tray costs €99 in the small size or €129 in the large.

Where to buy a standing desk in Ireland

Amazon.ie

Amazon.ie opened in March 2025, and it’s now the easiest place to get a mainstream standing desk delivered in Ireland. Prices are in euro, returns go through Amazon, and you see the delivery date before you pay.

Check two things on every listing: the seller and the delivery line. A lot of desks ship from the brand’s UK warehouse and take a week or so, which is fine. A third-party seller quoting several weeks usually isn’t. If the item ships from outside the EU, check whether the checkout total includes import charges.

Shops serving Ireland

Buy from a shop in Ireland if you want assembly, a VAT invoice for your business, or someone in the country to ring when a motor stops working. HuntOffice, IKEA, Triace and Viking Direct all deliver desks across the country. Office furniture dealers will also quote for bigger orders.

Anything shipped from outside the EU

Extra charges depend on where a desk ships from, not on the website’s address. A .ie site can dispatch from Britain, and a .co.uk site can dispatch from a warehouse inside the EU. Aosom.ie, for example, lists its desks as shipped from Aosom UK, while Oakywood ships from Poland with duties and taxes included. ErgoHide makes its desks in Slovenia. If the listing doesn’t say, ask before you order.

Goods sent to Ireland from outside the EU, which includes Great Britain, can come with VAT, customs duty and courier handling fees. From 1 November 2026, consumer e-commerce packages from outside the EU also carry a new Union Handling Fee of €2 per distinct item. Revenue says the fee targets platforms and sellers rather than shoppers, but sellers or delivery companies may pass it on. Small orders worth €150 or less, like a mat, have also carried €3 customs duty per item since 1 July 2026.

Some UK shops add their own surcharge on top. FlexiSpot’s UK store, for example, adds £100 per item to Irish orders. Check the final delivered price at checkout before you get attached to a desk.

How to choose a standing desk

Electric, converter or crank

Buy electric if you can. You’ll raise a desk that goes up at the press of a button. Crank desks are cheaper, but winding a handle thirty times every time you want to stand gets old fast. Converters sit in between.

One motor or two

One motor is fine for a laptop and a monitor. Two motors lift more weight, which helps with wide tops, several monitors or heavy kit. They cost more, and they don’t make a desk steady on their own. Frame construction, leg design, the feet and how high you raise the desk all affect wobble.

Height range

Check the lowest height as well as the highest. Many budget frames don’t go below about 72cm, which can leave shorter people sitting with their shoulders hunched. Tall people should check the top: the desk has to reach your elbows when you’re standing in shoes.

Top size

For two monitors, go for 140cm wide or more. Two 27-inch screens side by side can run past 120cm once you allow for bezels and a little space between them. 120cm suits one monitor and a laptop. Depth matters too: 60cm is tight for a large monitor, and 70 to 80cm is comfortable. Measure the room before you fall for a 160cm top.

Weight limit and warranty

Add up your monitors, any monitor arm and whatever else lives on the desk. A laptop, two monitors and an arm come in well under 50kg, so most limits are fine. For warranty, three years is fair on a budget desk and five or more is good.

What height should a standing desk be?

Stand up straight with your shoulders relaxed and bend your elbows to 90 degrees. The desk top should sit at, or just below, your elbows, so your forearms rest level and your wrists stay straight. Put the top of your screen at or slightly below eye level, about an arm’s length away.

Then do the same sitting down, with your feet flat on the floor. Save both heights as memory presets and you won’t have to think about it again.

Buying for an office?

Kitting out a team, or a whole floor? Send us the number of desks, your county and a rough budget, and we’ll pass it to an Irish supplier who can quote, deliver and assemble. We only share your details with that one supplier.

Our guide to office standing desks covers costs per desk, assembly, tax and the workstation assessment.

Questions people ask

Are standing desks worth it?

For most desk workers, yes, if you switch between sitting and standing. Workplace studies find sit-stand desks reduce daily sitting time, and some people get relief from lower back and neck discomfort. Standing all day isn’t the goal, because that brings its own aches. Our Should I buy a standing desk? post goes into more detail.

How long should I stand at a standing desk?

Start with 20 to 30 minutes at a time, then sit. A common rule of thumb is to change position every 30 to 60 minutes. Moving often matters more than hitting any particular sit-to-stand ratio.

Can my employer give me a standing desk tax-free?

Usually, yes. Revenue’s guidance on remote working says office furniture an employer provides so you can work from home doesn’t count as a benefit-in-kind, as long as it’s mainly for business use and private use is incidental. You can’t claim a desk you buy yourself under Remote Working Relief, though. That relief only covers electricity, heating and broadband. Ask your employer before you buy.

Do standing desks wobble?

Some do, mostly near full height. Frame construction, leg design, the size of the feet and how high you raise the desk all play a part, and the number of motors tells you little on its own. Look for reviews that mention stability at standing height.

Do you still sell standing desks?

No. We sold our own desks from 2014, but we don’t import them any more. Everything on this page is sold by someone else.
