Is this a good chair for a standing desk?

Yes. The seat adjusts up to 41.7 inches, which puts you at standing-desk height. It is built for drafting and tall desk setups.

Does it have armrests or a headrest?

No armrests or headrest are listed. It is a low back chair, so shoulders and arms stay free.

How long does assembly take?

Desky lists assembly at under 20 minutes. The frame is steel and plastic and the base is reinforced plastic.

Our take on the Desky Low Back Mesh Office Chair

The Desky Low Back Mesh Office Chair is a swivel task chair with a breathable mesh back, a moulded foam seat and a low back that keeps shoulders free. It doubles as a drafting chair: the seat adjusts from 37.7 to 41.7 inches, so it works at a standing or tall desk. A reinforced plastic base on PU hooded casters and a steel-and-plastic frame round it out, and assembly is listed at under 20 minutes. At $97.80 at Desky as of November 7, 2026, it is the lowest of the three new prices we track.
