Ergotron WorkFit-TL Review
WorkFit-TL features a larger keyboard tray and wider work surface. The WorkFit-TL saves space because it moves straight up and down, always staying within the footprint of the standing desk converter. Stable throughout the range of motion, one can freely lean on it without worry of tip or height-drop.
The Ergotron Workfit TL is a great product if you’re looking for something on the premium side. This has some cool features that you might want to look into.
Here are some initial thoughts.
The Workfit TL comes in two different colors, white and black. This way you can choose whichever one matches your office.
The Ergotron TL has a keyboard tray allowing you to comfortably lay your wrist on when performing your tasks.
This is a Double Z Design, and also it raises upwards instead of towards you. This is a neat feature allowing you to get the Double Z Design frame, while still raising straight up. Some standing desks will raise towards you like the Varidesk Pro Plus.

Construction and Material
The Workfit TL Ergotron is made up of high-density particleboard with very well finished. This construction is not too much of a big deal, but customers are concerned about is the framing.
The framing of the Ergotron is made with the metal Double Z Design that raises upwards. This is one of the unique features of the WorkFit-TL. Most Double Z Design converters raise towards you, but Ergotron has made it rise upwards.
The Double Z Design is a very stable frame design allowing you to hold heavy equipment.
It also has predrilled holes to allow you to attach a dual monitor mount for being more productive at work.
The dual-tier design allows you to keep your keyboard and mouse on one tray, while your monitor and laptop on the surface. This gives you the largest surface area to work with.
Ease of Use
Typically when it comes to furniture, you’ll have to install/assemble which can take hours, but fortunately, when it comes to this Ergotron WorkFit-TL, this isn’t a requirement. It comes ready outside of the box and all you have to do is simply place it on top of your desk.
Once you have the TL situated on how you’re going to position your working station, the raising part is easy.
To raise the WorkFit-TL, you’ll just have to squeeze both of the handles and pull up, and releasing the levers when you reached your desired height.
There are 20 different heights where it will easily lock in place.
To lower the WorkFit-TL, just squeeze as you do when you live, but you’ll just have to slowly push (no need to force) the desk down.
Price and Value
You might be wondering if the Ergotron WorkFit-TL is worth the price tag of MSRP $418.25 from Amazon? But considering its solid build quality, the five-year warranty they offer, and the straight up and down lift design, we feel like this is a product you can stand by.
There’s a reason why a lot of people have rated so highly about this product.
Product Video
The WorkFit TL is doesn’t have a small surface area, in fact, it is pretty large, and with that being said, it does require a larger surface area table. Because of the sleek design and construction, this would be great for an executive desk.
We can also see this being perfect for any corner desks too because of the larger width.
Final thoughts
The Workfit-TL from Ergotron is a great investment that you’ll love for years when it comes to using a desktop converter. This specific model, the TL (not the “T”), gives a lot of working space that we believe you’ll like because it provides a lot of space for multiple monitors, a full keyboard and mouse.
The TL is easy to use, giving you effortless control over when you want to stand or sit and providing you all the health benefits when it comes to standing while working.
