Is it actually worth getting a standing desk converter for daily use?

I've been working from home for the past few years and my back's been killing me. I'm seeing a ton of standing desk converters on Amazon - some go for like $200-400 - but I'm not sure if they really make a difference or if it's just hype. Has anyone actually stuck with one long-term and noticed improvements?

They genuinely work if you actually switch between sitting and standing throughout the day instead of just leaving it in one position - your back won't fix itself overnight, but the variety in posture makes a real difference! The key thing nobody mentions is that you need a good chair for the sitting parts too, and you gotta take breaks to move around; the converter itself is just part of the solution, not a magic fix.
