Vari Classic Electric Standing Desk – 60x30 – Walnut/Slate | Adjustable Height Sit-Stand Computer Desk - Dual Motor with 4 Memory Presets, Stable T-Style Legs

First: yes, you will love this desk. Everything about it feels like high-end corporate-grade furniture - because it is. All the edges are rounded and the materials are absolutely solid and heavy. A word on that later. First, assembly: It literally could not have been any easier. Four bolts that are made of high-quality machine steel on each side, two hold the leg to the surface, two hold the feet to the legs. One of the big reasons I shelled out the bucks for this was the comments on how easy it was to assemble. Absolutely lived up to the promise. Second: Not injuring yourself while assembling or placing this terrific desk. It weighs something like 160 pounds. Get a friend, get someone, just to help you move it around. It's simply too heavy and unwieldy for one person to do - this is NOT cheap, fall-apart-in-six-months furniture, this is the kind that two burly installers set up in office buildings. Third: Take a few minutes to put your computer, monitor(s), keyboard where you think you'll like them, but don't cable them up yet. Think about different tasks you do - do you need room for a notepad, a book, that other laptop or tablet? Here comes the fun part. Raise the desk up near its maximum height. Do you have an office chair that adjusts in height a bit? I bet you do. Lower it a bit, and you now have the world's most comfortable mechanical creeper. Now, take a big ol 8 or 10 outlet power strip and use some double-sided hook and loop tape to put it close to the side where you'll plug into an outlet. Then start with the other things. That ugly docking station for the laptop. The power bricks for it, for your monitor, whatever. Fasten those things to the bottom of the surface, because now you can route all of those cables and they can stay neatly out of sight. Get yourself a roll of hook-and-loop cable fastener (a couple are included with the desk). I ended up with exactly two cables going from the desk to the wall - one for power, one for network (I also stuck an 8-port network switch to the bottom, they're cheap and you will be grateful NEVER HAVING TO LOOK AT A FLOOR COVERED WITH SPAGHETTI AGAIN. That's the unexpected benefit of this desk. I got back all of the floor area under it and next to it that used to have an ugly mass of HDMI, power, USB, and network cables. I wanted to knock off one star on cost just because it's not cheap. This is one of the most expensive desks on the market. But in the end, I really got what I paid for: No surprises at all, no shortcuts, no "hope you have a cabinet full of power tools". In 20 minutes, I went from two boxes to playing with the height. That fast. So yeah, it was a very expensive purchase, but I expect to get a lot of use out of it and I simply can't find anything to complain about. Oh, just go ahead and buy it already.

Purchased the butcher block color.... I am 5'3" and I put this desk together by myself. I had my 14-year-old son help me drag the one box in that contained the top and had him help me flip it once it was assembled. Other than that, I did it all myself. I can NOT believe how easy it was to put together. I have put so many desks together in my lifetime, and I can tell you that this was by far the easiest and only took me 20-25 minutes total. I LOVE this desk. It's the real deal. The cable box attachment add-on purchase is a must. This desk is so sturdy and gorgeous. You will love it. Literally, took one try w/out reading the directions to program 3 stops, and they all have worked without a flaw. Not sure why other people have posted it doesn’t remember the settings. So smooth and quiet when it moves. My back, shoulders, wrists, neck are all thanking Vari already. I was miserable with the 3 other desks I had before because of pain. Love that I can now stand some during the day. I did buy some additional stick-on cable guides from Amazon, which I highly recommend b/c you'll need to run / hide the cable going into the cable box. OMG!! I just can't tell you how much I love this desk. I did not want to spend this much money, but I work from a Mac and a PC, with a consulting job on the side and need to check-in with that some throughout the day. I couldn't find a workable KVM switch, so I have to have two keyboards, two mice, and monitors. This is a brilliant solution. I just slide back and forth to each one throughout the day. Invest the money if you’re a full-time work-from-home person. It’s worth it!! Oh and shipping was like 1 day. Also, I did buy an 8-outlet surge protection power strip from Amazon. The one on Vari’s website was too short. I wanted to max out the space. I think the strip is 17” long and the cable component is 21”, so room left over. Couldn’t find a 10-outlet so I settled with 8.

My chiropractor told me if I did not quit sitting for long periods of time that my sciatic nerve pain would become a permanent condition. I am a software developer stuck to a desk for 8 hours a day and that was a difficult thing to hear. So, I went looking for solutions and after several hours of research and reviewing more options than I can remember, I found this desk. I was hesitant to spend so much money when there were so many other less expensive options. However, I kept coming back to this one for several reasons. It was the right width and length to replace my existing desk, the style matched my office, the testimonial videos I watched on YouTube reassured me of the quality, and finally I found out a coworker had the exact same desk and they were above and beyond satisfied with it. I placed my order and a couple of days later it arrived, well packaged in 2 boxes. One for the table top and one for the legs, controls, etc. Assembly was minimal and very easy. You need 2 people to turn the desk upright and position it so don't try it by yourself or you risk injury. Now that it is setup, all I can say is that this desk is amazing. The look, the quality, the sturdiness and the smoothness of the height adjustment is flawless. There is absolutely nothing about this desk that I can criticize. It is heavy, built with solid steel legs, but that just makes it feel solid, like a real piece of fine furniture. I am typing this review while standing at my new desk and it feels good and I absolutely love it.

I've used it for a week. Assembly was dead simple. Really high build quality; it feels like it will last forever. Very smooth and relatively quiet motion. Nice touch with included small accessories added in but adding a cable management tray would have been ideal. I guess I'll have look into that as well to complete the look.

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

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.

Great product
