I have 2 IKEA standing desks/tables that I like. I paid for delivery with my last one. I didn't link because they are just very basic. No drawers or anything.

If you have a local thrifting store you can look for a tall table with the tall chairs. Then you sit or stand when you feel like it and keep the things recycled.

I'm using a Husky sit/stand (manual) work bench that I got from Home Depot. It's a great size for crafting, has two large skinny drawers. In the top drawer I keep my most used tools like the envelope board maker and a card size score board, as well as the cutting mats & blades for the electric die cutters (silhouette/brother). The bottom drawer houses page protectors for scrapbooking. I thought it was reasonably priced and it's quality/heavy duty. It's made of steel and has a thick butcher block top. When I craft on it, it doesn't shake/move. It comes w/ leveling feet and casters, so you can have it move or be stationary. I attached a two-tiered tray from Ikea on the backside of it to hold additional items. I really like this set-up. I would buy it again.

I think it kind of depends on how much you are willing to spend and if you want a sit/stand option desk. Ikea does have several ways of designing your own desk (sort of) with their table tops and legs /Alex / Kallax options.

I have a Husky work bench like this too and I love how versatile it is. I have a heavy heat press that sits on it which is why I got it. I'm going to look into those trays from Ikea!

I use an old kitchen table. I have been given birthday money to buy a nice desk, but I have failed. I like the wider width of my table because I like to have storage right in front of me that I can reach without moving. All the desk options were too narrow for my preference in having things in reach!
