Can a desk really help you be more creative?
With the Whiteboard Sit-Stand Desk by UPLIFT Desk, you can make your mark, draw, and doodle your best ideas right on your desktop. Jot down the key takeaways from meetings, or make keeping mental notes a little easier on yourself with a desktop that lets you mark it up and erase it when you're ready, giving you a clean slate.
With Greenguard-Gold Certified laminate, you know you're tasking at an eco-friendly desk that isn't made with harsh chemicals. Use classic dry erase markers and a dry erase board eraser and record your ideas without having to pause to track down paper or open new documents on your PC.
Working at an adjustable height desk allows you to alternate between sitting and standing while you work, which boosts your health and productivity. You'll enjoy more energy for brainstorming, too. The sit-stand desk raises and lowers quietly, yet powerfully, within seconds with the press of a button, uplifting your workstation to where it's most comfortable for your body.
Because UPLIFT Desk frames use three spindles instead of just two, these sit-stand desks are 33% faster to adjust. And thanks to a dual-motor design, these desks are quieter, stronger, more reliable, and safer than desks with just a single motor.
This creativity-boosting desk is both versatile and adaptable, with height adjustments from 24.4" to 50.25" (without desktop thickness), and a width-adjustable stand up desk frame that can be expanded to fit our desktops easily. A telescoping crossbar provides you with ample space for mountable under-desk accessories while also increasing legroom for you.
Don't bring chemicals into your work area. We take the steps and care to use only the most environmentally conscious finishes to protect your desk and your indoor air quality. Our whiteboard laminate desktops are Greenguard-Gold Certified (pdf), so you can rest assured you're staying healthy during your ergonomic office evolution.
Accessorize your desk with ergo-friendly tools to improve your comfort even more. Try a little more modesty at your workstation with the desk organization or an adjustable keyboard tray or ergonomic mouse platform, we have the options to get you working in healthier postures now.

Ergonomic Desk F.A.Q.
- What is the UPLIFT V2 Whiteboard Sit-Stand Desk made from?
Our whiteboard desktop is made out of high-quality, eco-friendly materials. Constructed from thermally fused melamine laminate over a 45-lb density E-1 rated particle board core, this desktop uses 3 mm PCV edge banding, for a sleek and seamless look.
- I heard that laminate was "soft." Is the whiteboard desktop soft?
Our whiteboard laminate desktop is harder than most other laminates. Thanks to the durable melamine coating that protects the surface of the desk, you can write on it without creating indentations.
- Does this desk come with whiteboard markers or an eraser?
No, you will need to purchase these items separately.
- How easy is it to clean this desk?
Whiteboard laminate is one of the easiest desktop surfaces to wipe clean! Use a whiteboard eraser to erase your markings; and to disinfect the desktop, clean it with soapy water or Lysol wipes.
We have found that black dry erase markers tend to perform the best on these desktops. If any residue or ghosting is left behind after erasing the desktop, use Expo White Board Cleaner. If that doesn't remove all of the residue, try 70% isopropyl alcohol. You can also write over the unerased portion with another dry erase marker, let it dry, and then erase it.
- Why doesn’t this look like a typical laminate desk?
We love laminate desktops—and we think you will, too. They’re a great solution to help you stay active at work for less than it would cost to get a solid wood desk. Our laminates are made from recycled materials and feature some of the newest wood finishes. This whiteboard desktop is slightly different: its top surface was designed to give you an open canvas for all of your ideas, doodles, and notes. If you're looking for more of a classic look, we do have a large collection of laminate options.
- How well will this desktop hold up?
The UPLIFT V2 Whiteboard Sit-Stand Desk was designed with durability in mind. You can rest easy knowing that your desk will help you work healthier for years to come. To protect your whiteboard desktop, we don't recommend using it in wet or humid environments, as this can damage the desk. We also advise keeping the desktop out of direct sunlight.
- Why are 3-stage frames better?
Because UPLIFT Desks are made with 3-stage frames, rather than the traditional 2-stage frames, they can adjust up or down 33% faster. This design also gives UPLIFT Desks a wider height range: they can accommodate anyone from kids to taller adults. This adjustability is also important for anyone who wants to add a desk treadmill down the line.
- I don't live in the United States; will this desk work with my outlets?
Yes. This desk uses an NH-type control box which can operate on any input voltage between 100 and 240 Vac. However, it comes with a standard 3-prong U.S. type grounded cord and plug. An appropriate plug adapter may be needed to fit various international grounded electrical sockets. Not sure if you have an NH-type control box? Check to see If your control box has a power indicator LED on the top side and a port on one end marked "DC". If so, you have an NH-type control box.
- How do I know which control box program I have?
Check the small label on the end of your control box. This label has all the information you need to tell which program is on your control box. Compare the program number on your control box that starts with "99" to the program numbers found on the control box compatibility list (pdf) determine what features can be accessed with your control box, as well as compatibility with the UPLIFT Bluetooth Adapter and Advanced Paddle Keypad. If your control box has a power indicator LED on the top side and a port on one end marked "DC", you have an NH-type control box. NH-type control boxes include all available program features and are compatible with the UPLIFT Bluetooth Adapter and Advanced Paddle Keypad.
- What features are included on the control box programs?
Control boxes shipped as far back as 2017 include upgraded safety features, including the integrated accelerometer and six-axis technology. This feature improves the sensitivity of the anti-collision detection, stopping the desk more effectively if it collides with anything during movement. Combined with our Advanced Keypads, these control boxes also include features such as a Keypad Lock feature that blocks the function of the keypad so other people can't access it, a safety benefit in home offices where children are present. Additionally, you'll be able to switch between One-Touch and Constant-Touch desk movement modes. NH-type control boxes include a "Double-Tap" movement option. Additionally, the LED display can show desk height in inches or centimeters. You can also set maximum and minimum desk height limits to prevent your desk from running into fixed objects like shelves or file cabinets. Compare the program number (starting with "99") on the control box label to the program numbers found on the control box compatibility list (pdf) determine the capabilities of your control box. If your control box has a power indicator LED on the top side and a port on one end marked "DC", you have an NH-type control box. NH-type control boxes include all available program features and are compatible with the UPLIFT Bluetooth Adapter and Advanced Paddle Keypad.
- What are dual motors?
All two-leg UPLIFT Desks are designed with dual motors, which means each leg has a motor inside. This makes our height adjustable desks quieter, stronger, safer, and more stable than desks with a single motor driving both legs.
- Does this desktop come with holes pre-drilled?
The UPLIFT V2 Whiteboard Sit-Stand Desk is customizable, depending on which accessories you want, so we don't pre-drill guide holes for accessories. This lets you place your accessories in any configuration you like.
- What is the weight capacity of this desk?
Our 2-leg desks can hold a hefty 355 pounds. That's more than enough weight for your monitors, CPU, and other desktop items.
- How many people will I need to put my desk together?
You should be able to assemble the desk frame and attach it to the desktop by yourself. However, you will need two people to safely turn the desk right-side up after assembly. Check out our assembly video to see how to put your desk together.
- Do I need to keep my desk plugged in, even if I am not using it?
Yes, you should always keep your desk plugged in. This maintains the functionality of its safety features. If you're concerned about saving power, take comfort in knowing that the low-draw power supply minimizes electricity consumption.
