How smooth are the manual winding desks?

Are they hard work to move up/down? i.e. not a gym workout

Easy to spin, but takes quite a lot of turns. If anything I would prefer fewer turns even if it upped the effort to turn

Agree with this with my manual Ikea desk - no effort at all. The frantic twaddling of the crank handle under the desktop does create a talking point during Teams calls if I decide to change position during the call.

I have a sit stand desk (fancy Herman Miller one) and as well as using it to sit at, I also use different chairs for a bit of variety. For example, I'm sitting on a humanscale ballo at the moment, a bit like the lovechild of a gymball and mushroom
