Estimate the range
Use the output as a starting point, then adjust to your body and equipment.
Estimate a basic desk setup range for everyday comfort checks.
Enter height and work style to estimate ordinary desk, chair, monitor, and keyboard positioning notes. This is a general workspace planning tool, not an occupational health assessment.
Because ergonomics can overlap with pain and injury, this site ships with a dedicated medical disclaimer from day one.
This is an educational planning tool, not medical advice. It does not diagnose, treat, cure, prevent, or monitor any condition. Talk with a qualified professional before changing health routines if you have medical concerns.
How to use this planner
Check posture
Relax shoulders, keep wrists neutral, and avoid reaching for common controls.
Change positions
No setup removes the need for breaks, movement, and individual adjustment.
| Step | What to check | Practical note |
|---|---|---|
| Desk height | Estimate from height and desk style. | Actual equipment, shoes, chair, and keyboard tray can change the number. |
| Monitor | Place the main viewing area near eye level. | Dual monitor setups need a clear primary screen. |
| Discomfort | Watch for pain, numbness, or persistent strain. | Seek professional advice instead of relying on a web estimate. |
