Beyond the Desk: UPLIFT Desk Wins 2025 Consumer Product Award

UPLIFT Desk has been named the winner of the Consumer Product Award at the 2025 Greater Austin Business Awards. This award celebrates companies that have created a unique, must-have product that carves out a niche market. For us, this recognition speaks to our core belief that ergonomic, long-lasting, and highly customizable workspaces should be accessible to everyone, whether at home or in the office.

Why UPLIFT Desk is the Must-Have Solution

The distinction for our products lies in three areas: ergonomics expertise, unparalleled customization, and the dedication and customer support from start to finish of our Austin-based team.

1. Ergonomics Expertise

Ergonomics is the foundation of everything we build. Our CEO, Jon Paulsen, is a Certified Professional Ergonomist (CPE) who is heavily involved in every stage of product design. This means every product added to our line is designed to sit in your space, while supporting the user's health and comfort. We stand behind the idea that your next position is your best position, and our products ensure that.

This commitment ensures our products deliver tangible benefits:

Healthier Movement: Wide height ranges and powerful dual motors encourage healthy posture changes throughout the day.

Unmatched Stability: Our engineering provides superior stability at every height. This commitment to performance is why our desk has been recognized as a consistent market leader for nearly a decade.

2. Unparalleled Customization

Many competitors offer a "one-size-fits-all" or very limited setup. We offer a dynamic platform designed to fit your body, your space, and your unique workflow.

Tailored to You: We offer a massive line of products and accessories, making it possible to create thousands of combinations between desktop materials (including our unique bamboo and rubberwood options), frame types, and sizes. This superior flexibility ensures our customers get a desk precisely tailored to their needs.

A Complete Ecosystem for All Users: Beyond desks, we offer a complete ergonomic ecosystem that includes seating, storage, acoustic solutions, and more. This allows both residential and commercial customers to source their entire workspace from one trusted provider, guaranteeing ergonomic consistency and compatibility across any environment.

3. Unparalleled Service

The quality of our products is matched only by the dedication of the people who support them. Our Austin-based support team works to ensure every customer is happy with their ideal setup. From fast delivery, to answering technical questions, to helping with complex configurations, our customer service team is vital to the UPLIFT Desk value proposition. Our teams' hard work keeps our customer satisfaction high and reinforces that we are a company built on genuine care.

External Recognition and Customer Satisfaction

Our market acceptance is a reflection of deep trust, from national experts to the users who rely on our products every day. Our commitment to quality and engineering excellence has earned us continuous external validation. Wirecutter, one of the most respected product review publications, has named UPLIFT Desk its "Best Standing Desk" for seven consecutive years. This is an achievement that speaks directly to our performance and stability. We are proud to be frequently recognized by other established media outlets like The Strategist and TechRadar for our superior design and functionality.

More importantly, our success is measured by the satisfaction of the people who use our products every day. We are proud to have outfitted over one million workstations for homes and businesses. Our customers have shared more than 6,000 Google reviews with an outstanding 4.9 star average, reinforcing satisfaction at scale and proving that our reputation is trusted.

Thriving Locally and Beyond

As an Austin-based company, we are committed to being a leader in our community. Our solar-powered warehouses and headquarters are central to our operations, and we continue to thrive locally by investing in our community through our Desk Donation Program, which provides essential ergonomic furniture to local schools, nonprofits, and community groups across Austin. Beyond providing jobs, we give back through donations that support local charities, reinforcing our commitment to both economic and social health in the region.

Thank you to the Greater Austin Chamber for this incredible honor, and thank you to our customers for choosing a healthier, more customized, and expertly designed way to work!
