If you’re in a situation anything like mine, working from home for the past year has taught you something big: your home office is important!
Having a great space to spend your 8+ hours a day working can really make a difference, and the investment that made the biggest difference for me was a new desk.
A bamboo desk is a great option for anyone looking for a beautiful, durable, and environmentally friendly upgrade to their home workspace.
And in this article I’m going to go over a few of the best options that I dug up online.
Best Overall
Let's not beat around the bush here, you came for THE bamboo desk to reign supreme and won’t settle for anything less!
I dig that, and so do the folks over at Fully which is why their Jarvis Bamboo Standing Desk is at the top of my list.
That doesn’t necessarily mean that this is the desk for you, but I found it to be the best combination of quality build, clean aesthetics, and sustainable materials, which is are important to me.
This electronically adjusting sitting/standing desk has a stylish and sturdy leg construction and tons of options.
Build your dream desk from the natural or dark bamboo top, powered cable ports, and even a contoured front edge so you can literally lean into your work.
On top of all that, the whole thing comes with a warranty; 5 years on the desktop surface and 10 years (that’s right, 10 years) on the electronic and mechanical stuff.
And hey, if that’s not enough to convince you, our founder and editor-in-chief Mike Bozee has been using this desk himself for the past few years and loves it!

Best Bamboo Desk Under $100
This category hits pretty close to home for me because I’m the kind of guy who grumbles about buying printer ink or new sticky notes (why are office supplies so expensive?) and I would always rather wait for the perfect bargain.
But, the day always comes where you have to cave and make an investment to upgrade, so I always try to make my dollar go as far as possible, and Sweden is pretty dang far.
Okay, so not actually Sweden, but rather their pride and joy: IKEA.
I used to be one of those people who thought IKEA only made cheap stuff for college dorms and Airbnb’s, but I have come around in a big way.
Their ANFALLARE/ ADILS bamboo desk is sleek, durable, and clocks in under a Benjamin at $95.00 so you can get some meatballs with your change.
Doesn’t get any Swede-r than that (I’m sorry, it was right there).
Best Bamboo Standing Desk
Health is pretty important, even at work, and a lot of people benefit from using a standing desk.
Staying on my feet or even switching between sitting and standing throughout the day helps me keep from feeling sluggish or tired during the workday, and honestly just makes for a nice change of pace.
If you’re ready to make that switch and a bamboo standing desk sounds like a dream come true, this Kana bamboo standing desk might be for you!
The key factors that made the Kana desk stand out were the customizable preset height buttons and the optional storage.
Having the desk go up at the touch of a button is great, but if you’re like me and have separate filing cabinets or other space for your stuff – it doesn’t come with you.
The under-desk cloth drawer and desk hooks are great for the essentials you need when either standing or sitting.
On top of that, the Kana desk emanates that bamboo-style desk feeling – something about the contrast between the slick woodgrain and the heather gray drawer really does it in terms of looks!
Best Bamboo Seated Desk
Are the healthy people gone? They are? Okay, great. Honestly guys, I have a convertible sitting/standing desk, but mostly just to convince myself that I won’t slowly turn into Quasimodo while hunched over my keyboard for hours a day.
Maybe some of you are more at peace with your true desires and seek to boldly deny the standing desk trend…
