Vari Electric Standing Desk Review

Whether you’re looking for a standing desk that’s compact, stylish, or has excellent cable management features the Vari’ Electric Standing Desk should be at top of your list. With multiple sizes and finishes available it is sure to find something perfect just right for any workspace.

More and more people are deciding that they need a change from their traditional sit-down jobs, so many of them are switching over to standing desks. A manual standing desk is easy enough but if you have an electric one then all it takes is pushing one button for your work-life upgrade.

Vari, a company based in Coppell Texas has been making both standing desk converters and standalone models since 2013. They just recently released their new Electric Standing Desk which we’ll be looking at today. The Electric Standing Desk is a great option for those looking to stand up more than just once in their life. The company offers three different sizes of this product, with five finishes available, and includes an electric straight-up lift system that makes it easy peasy.

Design

The design of Vari’s Electric Standing Desk is unique in that it features two legs that attach to a metal frame, rather than just one. This isn’t necessarily bad though as this has become fairly popular among other standing desk manufacturers and may be easier for some people who need support when sitting at their workstation all day long.

This desk is a sleek and stylish piece of office equipment. The T-style legs allow it to move from sitting, or standing positions with ease while containing the machinery that does so! You can Assembly this unit in minutes – all you need are some simple tools like wrenches & pliers for connecting wires together underneath their respective plates on each leg (there’s one wire per plate). The panel should be placed on either side for your preference. The cords are plugged into it and can also provide power from their own outlets or batteries if needed.

With so many wires and cables, it’s no wonder that most people don’t consider cable management when purchasing an electric standing desk. But Vari’ Electric Standing Desk has enough ties for all your needs with its horizontal bar to hold power plugs from the control box which feature prominently in one corner of this sturdy frame.

You can choose from three different sizes and five finishes for the desk: 48×30, 60×30, or 72×30. It is available in a variety of woods including reclaimed wood with an exposed frame finish; black metallic paint on dark stained solid oak boards (laminate); white laminated surfaces which are recommended if you plan to keep it clean but don’t need anything durable as well as butcher block style tables made out natural stone material. There’s also room underneath where your keyboard/mouse combo unit will fit without any issues.

Positive
  • Work in a healthy, sustainable way
  • Be more productive
  • Save space and money on furniture
Negative
  • Cable Management Tray extra cost – not include

Perfomance

The desktop PC we chose to use with this desk can support up to 200 lbs (90.7 kg). We could have opted for a larger machine but decided instead to keep things smaller and simpler in order to take full advantage of how much workspace there is on offer here. Whether you’re 5’3″, 6 feet tall, or somewhere in between, Vari’s Electric Standing Desk has the perfect standing height for your needs. It can be adjusted up to 50+” high and lower than 25″.

When you find a standing height that works for your body, press M on the control panel and choose from 1 to 4 to save it. With the touch of a button, your desk will raise or lower to any height you need in seconds. We found that these electric motors are fast and quiet enough not only for home use but also for business meetings where noise could be an issue.

To help make the transition from sitting at a desk to standing more smoothly, Vari offers an assortment of accessories including their Standing Mat which can reduce fatigue during long periods spent on your feet. You’ll also find a Modesty Panel that provides additional privacy in shared workspaces and as we mentioned before, there’s an acrylic power strip holder for all your cables.

We were impressed with the Vari’s Electric Standing Desk, not only because it can be lowered to accommodate our shorter stature but also for its build quality. The cup-holding mechanism is sturdy and there’s no risk of spilling coffee whenever you adjust your workstation.
