Vari VariDesk Pro Plus 30 Height Adjustable Standing Desk Converter for Home Office - Sit to Stand Desk with 11 Height Settings, Spring-Assisted Lift, and Weighted Base - Fully Assembled, Black

I had been wanting to try a standing desk for a while now, but the thought of replacing my entire desk setup at my work office was daunting.Enter the VariDesk Pro Plus 30, a fantastic solution that converts my existing desk into a standing desk in seconds. It's sturdy, easy to use, and has made a noticeable difference in my workday comfort.Here's what I love about it:Effortless Transition: Going from sitting to standing is a breeze. The spring-assisted lift mechanism is smooth and requires minimal effort. I can adjust the height in seconds, finding the perfect position for both sitting and standing.Sturdy and Stable: Even at its highest setting, the VariDesk feels incredibly stable. There's no wobbling or shaking, even when I'm typing vigorously. This is crucial for someone like me who values a solid, distraction-free workspace.Spacious Work Surface: The two-tier design provides ample space for my laptop, mouse, and even a notebook. I appreciate having a dedicated space for my keyboard and mouse, which helps maintain good ergonomics.Improved Posture and Focus: Since using the VariDesk, I've noticed a significant improvement in my posture and focus. Being able to switch between sitting and standing throughout the day keeps me energized and helps prevent that afternoon slump.Easy Assembly (or Lack Thereof!): It arrived fully assembled and ready to go. I simply took it out of the box, placed it on my desk, and started using it. No complicated instructions or tools required.A Minor Quibble:While I'm delighted with the VariDesk overall, I echo a common critique I've seen in other reviews: the keyboard tray can feel cramped, especially if you have a larger keyboard or prefer more mouse space. This hasn't been a dealbreaker for me, but it's something to consider if you prioritize a lot of keyboard and mouse real estate.Overall:If you're looking for an easy and effective way to incorporate standing into your workday, the VariDesk Pro Plus 30 is an excellent choice. It's a well-made, user-friendly solution that has transformed my workspace and improved my overall well-being. Just be mindful of the keyboard tray size if you need a lot of space for your keyboard and mouse.

Bought this for an employee who wanted to stand occasionally at her desk to work. She loves it and I may get one for me, too. It comes in a couple sizes. it does take up a lot of room on the desk, and our monitors sit on top, so even when you are sitting your monitors are 4-5" higher. Make sure that works for you. It is very easy to raise and lower the system. Seems very well made. Very sturdy and was easy to set up.

I've been using this desk for about two weeks now, and I'm still trying to find a reasons why I shouldn't give it a 5/5.First of all, I've waited a long time before I deiced to dive into the stand up desk world. There is a lot of designs out there for about the same cost as this one. So, I'll tell you the things I don't like about it and the things I do like, and hope that this will help you decide. Also, I'd like to point out that I paired my desk with the Royal Anti-Fatigue Comfort Mat - Burgundy Color - 20 x 39".Cons: Just about the only thing that I could find that may be a turnoff for some is the fact that you are giving up an entire side of your desk for the VARIDESK. Just know that the desk will take up the entire surface and nothing will fit under it.Pros: The pros are easier and more obvious. I received this desk almost a week before estimated. The device came very well protected. I was able to unpack the VARIDESK and set it on my desk in about 10 minutes. Took another 15 minutes to set my monitors up, run all the cables, and clean up the cables with the bands that come with your desk.About the design: I like this design because I can fit both of my monitors without having to take off the standing arm from the monitors. I also find that having the keyboard and mouse surfaces at a lower elevation works out really well. The mouse has plenty of room to move around. The desk has "mouse space" on both sides, which would accommodate a lefty just as well.About the Stability: I find that I can securely rest the weight of my arms on it and will only slightly move. I noticed that the base has pre-drilled holes, which I suspect could be for additional anchorage to the desk if you so chose to use. I also find that I can take notes on the surface with no problem.About the Ease of Use: Moving from Stand to Sit position is a breeze, as it uses springs to help you move it up and down with very little effort. It actually takes more force to push the desk down into the Sit position.About the "Look": The finish of the desk is a smooth, glossy finish all around. All edges are rounded off all parts of it all solid black.In summary, this desk has been everything I expected: Sturdy, Easy to Use, Spacious, Beautiful, and no permanent installation or damage to my desk. Standing up gives me a change to break away from the neck/back fatigue that comes from sitting down all day. I find myself with a lot more energy and focus at the end of each day as well. My co-workers are very jealous and may soon join me.
