Adjustable Under Desk Footrest 6-Height Review

Six height positions, a massage-textured top surface, and an anti-slip rubber bottom — that’s the whole package, and at $21.99 it’s the cheapest of the proven footrests in this category. If you’ve never used a footrest and you want one that just works for whatever chair you’re sitting in, this is the one.

Six-position height is a real upgrade over the typical 3-position designs. Your chair height isn’t always perfect — your desk might be too tall, your chair might be too short, you might be tall yourself — and having more options means you actually find the right setting instead of settling for “close enough.”

The massage surface

Sounds gimmicky. Isn’t. The textured nubs on the top let you rub your feet around during long sessions and it actually relieves tension. Not a real massage, but enough to keep your feet from going numb during a marathon work day or eight-hour gaming session.

If you don’t like the texture, this isn’t the footrest for you — pick the memory foam version instead. But most people who try the massage surface end up liking it.

Build

Plastic. Rubber feet on the bottom for grip. The plastic is the right call here — foam compresses over time, plastic doesn’t. After two years of daily use, this’ll still be the same shape it was on day one. Foam footrests will not.

The trade-off: plastic isn’t soft. If you sit at your desk in bare feet and you want something cushy, this won’t deliver. But for shoes-on or socks, the textured plastic is fine and the durability beats foam.

Where it falls short

Hard surface vs. foam — covered above. Some people find the massage texture annoying (it’s a personal thing). And if you’re using it on a hardwood floor, the rubber feet can leave faint marks if you push hard against it sideways. None of these are dealbreakers but they’re worth knowing.
