Everything can be “smart” if you slap a computer on it that will gather and utilize some form of data and that’s exactly what Stir has done with its new $2,990 smart desk. This desk is so smart that it can learn your sitting and standing habits, cool right?! Hell, with features like that, a few thousand bucks for a fairly ugly desk doesn’t sound too bad! /sarcasm

We poke fun at Stir sometimes, but that’s mostly because $3,900 is a ridiculous amount of money to pay for a standing desk — yes, even a “smart” one. But once you get past the sticker shock, it’s clear the company is doing some cool things: The existing Kinetic Desk has a sleek design and can learn your sitting and standing habits. (The fact that there are built-in outlets to keep your stuff from falling over is also a plus.) Again, though, four grand is a lot to spend, especially if you’re a company looking to issue several of these to your employees. With that in mind, Stir is releasing another desk that’s relatively more affordable. Which is to say, it costs $2,990. Still not cheap, exactly, but a thousand-dollar price cut is a start.
