Vari - Electric Standing Desk 48x30

Just chiming in to second that 48 inches is definitely enough. I have an L shaped desk at the office, and during lockdown, I got a 48 x 30 sit-stand desk (Vari) for my at-home set-up.  While I've recently changed it out for a longer desk, that was because I wanted space to sew, not because there wasn't enough room for my dual monitor work set-up.

I'll warn you off one. I got the [VariDesk](https://www.vari.com/electric-standing-desk-with-comfortedge-48x30/FD-ESDCE4830.html) b/c it was recommended as the sturdiest / hardest to tip over. While that part seems to be true, they put some of the control components directly in the center of the underside of the desk. I bang my knees on it dozens of times a day crossing or uncrossing my legs. Other than that the desk has been rock solid for almost 5 years now so the quality is there. Very sturdy desk, as advertised but 0/10 would I buy it again. https://preview.redd.it/zr0y4zy07z4f1.png?width=1080&format=png&auto=webp&s=b7833d6825ba2a747e726447674136dd93f3419a

Id go with a Vari electric desk, they have a reputation for being the most stable. You can find a helpful breakdown of the best options [in this thread](https://www.reddit.com/user/BrushWild1866/comments/1n9hkgt/the_best_standing_desks/)

Vari Electric here—set it and forget it tank. The feet are longer than most which helps stability. Height change is slower than Uplift but quieter. Cable management isn’t fancy—just buy an under-desk raceway and velcro straps.

Vari Electric (formerly VariDesk) is expensive but their customer service is incredible. My motor died after 3 years and they sent a replacement frame before I even shipped the old one back. The desk is built like a battleship. Zero flex even with my 49" ultrawide. Sometimes paying more upfront saves headaches.

Just jumped into this sub today because I got my first standing desk. The Vari I just bought adjusts from 25" to 50" More expensive than the other brands I looked at i the same size and weight capacity ranges.

I've never used an Uplift, but I've been really happy with my Vari desk, which looks to be the same general design as the Uplift desks and around the same price.

I love my vari. It’s pricey but really well built. I’d buy a cheap but good one from Amazon and see if you’d like it or use it. Then upgrade. I’ve used a few different types so knew what I wanted when I went remote

I’ve had mine since 2020 and I love it. It’s gone through a couple of moves and it’s still going strong. Admittedly, I don’t use the motor as often as I should.

I have a Vari standing desk and it is great
