VARIDESK Pro Plus 30 - Height Adjustable Standing Desk

Well built if a tad expensive.Don't think its as totalitarian looking as people comment - not beautiful from the side, more functional looking. Its pretty big so make sure you have enough desk space and clearance. I have a Dell 34" curved monitor on it which I guess is around the stated weight limit, but have no issue raising/lowering the platform.Unlike some I didn't really have an issue wit the keyboard/mouse cables - I just dropped them over the top of the rear bar where they join the monitor cables and wrapped them in black plastic spiral cable tidy. They then all drop down the back of the desk and rise/fall with the platform as a single cable unit.I purchased this as I spend long hours sitting at my home office desk and became aware of just how unhealthy this is. I have to say I find standing and working quite liberating and love it. I probably spend more time standing now than I do sitting. I do quite a few webex meetings/presentations and when standing gives more of a feeling that you are actually presenting to an audience!

Excellent purchase. I've been thinking about using a stand up desk for some time (20+ years of sitting in slumped positions has caused severe neck/back issues in recent years.) I wanted a device I could raise and lower at will, this one looked perfect for me - and it is! It is a heavy piece of kit and I'm glad I had someone to help me get it into position on my desk and it takes up quite a bit of space on your work space so a sturdy and relatively large desk is required. Once in place, the Varidesk is very easy to raise and lower. I'm not tall (5' 7") so the product provides the perfect working position for me. I'd imagine anyone blessed with more height might find they are looking down a lot, but I can type and keep my head in an upright position when standing which is what I wanted.

I couldn't love this more! It comes ready to use, so totally assembled. Super easy to transition from the lowest to the highest level, and in just 1 second.

It enables me to use my computer standing up or sitting down and to change between these two positions quickly and easily. However, when in the fully upright position it projects rather a long way out from my desk which is not very convenient in a limited workspace.

This desk is great - goes up and down like a dream, sturdy and I know it will last a long time. The service from Varidesk is out of this workld too - I accidentally ordered 2 because of an (alarming) issue with Amazon retrying declined cards - I ordered again. Varidesk were quick, clear, communicative, helpful and paid for my return, which was picked up from my house ASAP. Very impressed.

Had to adopt use of this due to back problems that meant a standing desk was better for my spinal (& (it turns out - general) health. The Varidesk is extremely well-built, but therefore very heavy (40kg; around 88lbs). It's realistically a 2-man job to get it into position (unless you're looking for hernia-induced time off!). It's adjustable to practically any desktop height needs; and built like the the proverbial brick outhouse. It does, however, need a very robust surface on which to stand, and about 24" (about 60cm) of uncluttered desktop space behind it for stable installation. You also need to think carefully about cable routings; so you don't sever any when the desktop is dropped to its lowest setting. Also downloadable from the Varidesk website is a piece of software that reminds you to stand up for 15min after every 45min seated. Overall highly recommended.

Bought two of these inmy office now for team members who have back problems aniseed to regularly stretch. Recommend the pro plus 30 rather than pro 30 as the plus one allows the keyboard and mouse stand to move up to standing height along with the monitor. Fits easily on a full size desk. Doesn't need fittings / screwing in or anything so didn't need anyone to fit it. Quite heavy as an item so help needed to.put oldest but those with back problems can lift from sit to stand with two fingers and no effort as spring weighted. This model was recommended by professional medical occupational health company and I would second that, as would both people in my team now using them daily

Arrives ready assembled. Will need two people to lift onto desk and position. Great product. Want one for myself now !
