Choosing a Float desk for your space
Start by measuring the desk area, including the room needed to move around it and use the chair. Then compare the available top widths and depths with your working habits. A smaller footprint may make the Micro or Mini worth considering for a compact office, while a larger available size may better suit a setup that needs more surface area. Confirm the dimensions for the specific model and configuration before deciding.
Think about how you work through the day, too. Float desks are manually adjustable, so consider whether that adjustment style suits the people who will use the desk. Since each desk is intended for one person, plan separate workstations where multiple people need dedicated desks.
Compare materials, frames and cable options
Surface material and appearance can help narrow the range. The collection includes melamine surfaces, including the white melamine top described for the Float FT, and the Float Mini is described with a bamboo top. Listed surface colors include white, grey and wood. Check the individual listing to confirm which material and color are offered with the model you are considering.
Frame styles in the collection include T-leg and column designs. Base colors vary across the range, with listed choices including silver, white, black, grey, blue, green and red. Not every combination is necessarily available for every model, so use the product details to verify the options that apply.
All three desks are listed as suitable for a cable tray, but whether a tray is included varies. If cable management is important, check this detail before selecting a configuration and account for any accessories your workspace needs.
What to check before you choose
- Measure the available floor area and compare it with the listed top dimensions.
- Confirm the model, frame style, surface material, colors and included accessories.
- Review the product details for warranty information; the collection lists a two-year warranty.
- Consider how the desk will fit with your existing chair and workstation setup.
