Vari Classic Electric Standing Desk – 60x30 – Walnut/Slate

Chose the old wood; fits my decor perfectly. Looks and feels indestructible. Easy to assemble and I have trouble assembling anything.

I like my Vari desk a great deal. Being able to raise and lower the desk top is great. You can find the perfect height any time. It assembles fairly easily but will take a little time. The only downside is that the desk is very heavy. You assemble upside down, then have to flip the desk over. I recommend a second set of hands to do this. The material for the desktop and legs is of high quality. There was nothing about the desk that I thought felt cheap. I have used this for almost 5 years now, and it still looks as good as the day I assembled it. The motor still works flawlessly. I was able to clamp dual monitor stands, a boom microphone, and a laptop stand very easily. The desk is the perfect size for me.

I've had this table for 3 months and it is definitely worth the money. It's super heavy so it's extremely sturdy. My partner put it together really quickly without my help. It has memory settings for easy height changes which is very nice. The tabletop is also really nice looking even though it's not actual rustic wood, it mimics that look very well.

Just fit in the room, and high quality. Thank you.

Legs and desktop ship separately: FedEx lost my first desktop and never alerted me that a second package (legs) had arrived, so I was lucky to find those in the mailroom before they were unduly taken. After the final shipping deadline was missed, I reached out to Vari (via Amazon) and received a reshipment in less than 48 hours. I had planned to assemble this by myself: I would urge similarly minded readers to reconsider. The design and build are great: it's trivial to get all of the pieces together. The desktop itself is VERY solid and has the metal bracketing already attached: it's somewhere in the vicinity of 80 lbs., and it's a big rectangle with a bit of a plasticky surface. I was able to get the desktop out of the box (great packaging!!!), but then I found myself surrounded by the plastic sheet that was covering the desktop, fighting both to keep the slab from falling onto anything as well as to keep myself from slipping on this wonderful new working surface. The plan had been to gingerly lower the desktop onto the assembled legs, but there was no having that. I was worried about torque: I was worried that, if I assembled the entire construction upside down (as per the instructions), while attempting to flip the desk by myself, I would allow too much force to be applied from a bad angle against some random juncture. I've done that before. It's haunted me for over a decade. I decided to attach one assembled leg while the desktop was upside down and then attempt to flip that partial assembly (fool that I was) and, again, lower the desktop onto the remaining leg. This dumpster fire of a plan was borne by all the ungrounded misgivings I had accumulated so far. After a few additional near death experiences, it dawned on me that no part of this construction had budged or shifted or even made a squeaky sound: maybe I should just follow the instructions. Flipping ~140 lbs. wasn't terribly easy, but I cleared plenty of space, spent a few minutes visualizing what could go _right_, and then committed to steady plan of attack. I'm not excited about what I surely put this construction through, but my earlier note remains: nothing budged or shifted, and nothing is squeaking. As loaded as I need (computers, monitors, peripherals) and at full height, the desk does not noticeably wobble. The surface has a finish that is very easy to clean and is also textured: it has a great feel and is significantly more matte than glossy (I didn't realize how much I need that change). The bracketing on the bottom of the desktop is very centralized, leaving lots of room for any under-desk mounting (e.g., power strips).
