What is the difference between a standing desk riser and a full sit-stand desk?

A standing desk riser (or converter) is a platform that sits on top of your existing desk surface, elevating just a portion of it for standing use. A full sit-stand desk replaces your existing desk entirely and raises the complete surface with an electric or manual mechanism. Risers are lower cost ($100–$350) and easier to implement, but they limit your standing workspace to the riser platform size. Full sit-stand desks offer a better ergonomic and aesthetic result for $400–$1,500+.
