I don't know how anyone sits ergonomically. Your knees should be right angled as should your elbows. At this height I've found all desks too tall. I'm average height so unsure how others do it.

I strap my laptop to the back of a deer, and chase it across the hills as I play Battlefield Galacticus IV. Humans weren't born to stand still all day.

I’m pretty short and one benefit of the adjustable standing desk I hadn’t considered is that I can make it lower and actually sit comfortably.

Yeah, I also bought it to have a standing desk, but as it turns out getting a right height desk and good chair solved all problems I had, so now sitting is just more comfortable than standing without any drawbacks...

With a foot stool you can have the chair and desk at a higher position while still maintaining proper knee angle.

I'm short and all the chairs I've tried are too high. I tried putting pads down to raise my feet up but then the chair hits it when I roll around. Desk height would be another issue but my current desk has a keyboard tray that actually sits low enough.

My keyboard tray is the only way I can get it right. I have a 2nd hand Herman Miller Aeron and it goes pretty low. They have good specs online as well to figure that out.

I tried a gaming chair once years ago and it was many inches too high. =/ Though from the specs the Secret Lab TItan might actually go down as much as the Aeron.

At that point you'd be better off sitting cross legged on the floor.
