Varidesk Soho Review: Is Standing Up The New Sitting Down?

varideskreview

Standing up is the new sitting down. Well, almost. The trend for working while standing up is not going away. It has numerous health benefits and you can burn 52,000 calories per year if you use it daily. It also decreases neck and lower back pain, lower blood pressure and help prevent heart disease.

With this in mind we reviewed the Varidesk Soho. Varidesk specialise in sit/stand desks.The Soho is their smallest standing desk model, with just enough space for the mobile minimalist who needs a stand up desk that’s just the right size for their laptop or tablet and easy to move and manage. It’s a single, flat deck that’s 76.2cm (30″) wide, and pops up or folds down in just seconds, making it a true sit-stand desk.

So what did we think? It came well packaged which is always a plus. When we took it out we noticed how good it looked. It is well made and it looks high end. The instructions are on a removable plastic film on the desk. It is heavy but not too heavy. It is easy to work, moving up and down effortlessly and without any juddering when you get the hang of it.

The Varidesk is easy to use, and is flat enough to be stored away easily. It looks good and is adjustable so it will suit every height. It is also small enough to work in a cubicle if you don’t have your own office. You can fit a laptop and a mug of tea on it. We are sold. We think it is a great piece of engineering and a fantastic product. It costs £150 and is available from Varidesk. We are not sure if we will be standing up all day, but we will definitely be incorporating it into our working day.
