One does not need to be at the same work station all day, or they could if they choose. Between this product, regular work stations and the kind you can raise or lower to stand or sit at, the computer user will have many ways to adjust for their best ergonomic fit.<br> <br> I hope that Steelcase and similar companies will be open to further developments in ergonomic technology and designs.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Matt]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 22nd 2008 1:51AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/19/steelcases-walkstation-marries-desk-and-treadmill/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/19/steelcases-walkstation-marries-desk-and-treadmill/</guid><description><![CDATA[I built my own treadmill desk and love it.

I'm self-employed and I sit at my computer 8-10 hours a day. People would probably be a lot more productive using a walkstation because it would keep us alert. Many times I could just nod off out of boredom and monotony. An article I read said it costs about $4300. Maybe I can rig up a walkstation of my own for less...  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Renae Stephens]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 15th 2008 9:40AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/19/steelcases-walkstation-marries-desk-and-treadmill/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/19/steelcases-walkstation-marries-desk-and-treadmill/</guid><description><![CDATA[Treadmill desks work and despite some of the comments above there is actually proof that they do. I suggest you visit www.trekdesk.com and read some of the amazing medical studies about the health benefits. Surprisingly you DO NOT need to increase your heart rate levels in ways that are mentioned above to achieve fitness goals, even though using a treadmill desk will restory your health so that you will want to start increasing you physical abilities even more. Consistent daily walking with a treadmill desk like the TrekDesk can change lives and enhance productivity and health, I know because I have been using my treadmill desk and it is incredibly effective.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Sue]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 20th 2008 6:58AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/19/steelcases-walkstation-marries-desk-and-treadmill/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/19/steelcases-walkstation-marries-desk-and-treadmill/</guid><description><![CDATA[There's actually a 20/20 on the WalkStation Friday night at 10.

You do not need to invest thousands of dollars to get one either, apart from the cost of the treadmill, which can be easily and cheaply purchased at a garage sale, the cost of the desk was just $60 for to build. Apart from a little over a year where I got so busy running my software start-up I use the treadmill desk on an almost daily basis, logging between 2 and 10 miles. I even play World of Warcraft whilst walking. You can check out pictures of my treadmill desk and my adventures with one at <a href="http://www.justinlloyd.org/category/treadmill-desk/" rel="nofollow">http://www.justinlloyd.org/category/treadmill-desk/</a>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Justin Lloyd]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 12th 2009 8:27PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/19/steelcases-walkstation-marries-desk-and-treadmill/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/19/steelcases-walkstation-marries-desk-and-treadmill/</guid><description><![CDATA[I want that monitor stand.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jesse S]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 19th 2007 11:09AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/19/steelcases-walkstation-marries-desk-and-treadmill/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/19/steelcases-walkstation-marries-desk-and-treadmill/</guid><description><![CDATA[I guess they never tried the equipment before they designed.

You just walk at about 1 mile per hour -- an EXTREMELY slow amble. You can still concentrate on your work (or on Engadget, etc.) but by the end of the day you've walked 8 miles without even knowing it!<br><br>Even small movements add up when it comes to burning calories. This is an example of what's called Non-Exercise Activity Thermogenesis (or NEAT). You'll still burn around 100 calories per mile, no matter how slow you go. <br><br>An extra 800 calories burned per day adds up to over a pound a week! Doesn't sound like a lot until you realize that 1 pound a week for a year is over 50 pounds. Now that's impressive.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Matt]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 19th 2007 12:00PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/19/steelcases-walkstation-marries-desk-and-treadmill/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/19/steelcases-walkstation-marries-desk-and-treadmill/</guid><description><![CDATA[How long until one will get tired of walking/running and end up grabbing a chair to sit down in front of the darned computer? lol.<br><br>It reminds me of a piece of cheese at the end of a stick. If you're addicted to the computer and out of shape, they'll place you on one of these Walkstations.

Two co-workers and I have all raised are desks to standing height.  Cost: $0.  I've been doing it for over a year.  I'm standing right now.  At the very least I feel better about myself.  I'm certain that a slow walk would be better for your back, even if it didn't burn more calories.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[tif]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 19th 2007 2:00PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/19/steelcases-walkstation-marries-desk-and-treadmill/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/19/steelcases-walkstation-marries-desk-and-treadmill/</guid><description><![CDATA[I think a stationary bike would have been a better choice.<br>It would also be cool if the bike attached to the computer via a USB connection.<br>There should be an app that monitors your peddling and dims the screen if you aren't keeping up a minimum pace.<br>This would force you to exercise in order to use the computer.<br>Would be great for overweight kids.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[SubGenius]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 19th 2007 2:57PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/19/steelcases-walkstation-marries-desk-and-treadmill/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/19/steelcases-walkstation-marries-desk-and-treadmill/</guid><description><![CDATA[Agreed.

I can't afford it.  But I like it.  I think it would be a great option to have at the office.  Sometimes you just need to get up to clear your mind.  Maybe it would keep my boss from getting up and walking to my office when he feels he needs to walk to clear his mind...]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[cameragnome]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 19th 2007 3:31PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/19/steelcases-walkstation-marries-desk-and-treadmill/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/19/steelcases-walkstation-marries-desk-and-treadmill/</guid><description><![CDATA[I think this is a cool concept.

I walk about 4-5 miles a day if not more, and sometimes I can barely walk without soaking my joints.. and I'm not that overweight I'm not morbid at least.  I mean it's great if your slim enough to do that but all you folks saying fatty's yeah it's not gonna work for us we need low impact .. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[vivacious]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 20th 2008 8:43PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/19/steelcases-walkstation-marries-desk-and-treadmill/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/19/steelcases-walkstation-marries-desk-and-treadmill/</guid><description><![CDATA[Just got some pricing from a rep.
