Before we consider how to choose a better mat. We'd better to know what's a standing mat. standing mat is a soft surface that you stand on while using your standing desk. It is a great compliment to a standing desk and often helps reduce some of few negative effects of standing like joint soreness and fatigue.


So when buying a mat how many things we should consider?

1) Remember that the thickness of your mat will change your height standing at your desk. This won’t affect most people as most standing desks are adjustable, but if you’re tall and you’re at the max height for your standing desk, it could make your monitor and/or keyboard too low for you.

2)Pay attention to the width and length of the standing mat that you’re interested in, and make sure you have enough space for it.

3)Don’t use high heels when standing on the mat, and be careful with shoes with hard heels that could damage the mat.

4)If you walk away from your mat frequently, you may want to look at the flat mats so you don’t trip over one of the contoured mats.
