MultiTable is definitely the clear winner.Standing desk converters began pouring onto the market several years ago when the health benefits of alternating between sitting, and standing positions at work became known. Finally, I am 6'7", and this unit at its tallest is a perfect fit. Fourth, the Varidesk has more cutout area, meaning that the MultiTable has more real estate for monitors, laptops, paperwork, etc. The MultiTable raises and lowers straight up and down so stays more stable. Third, the Varidesk moves forward when it raises, so the unit becomes top heavy, particularly with the overhang of the base. Second, the base of the Varidesk is deeper, and hangs over the desks in our cubes, while the MultiTable fits perfectly. The MultiTable on the other hand was easy for all to raise/lower. Several of the shorter/average height women in the office had a lot of problems raising the Varidesk, and some could not lower it. First, the Varidesk lifts with spring action, which is much harder to raise and lower than the MultiTable pneumatic assist. Not only is the Varidesk $100 more, it is not nearly as nice as the MultiTable, for several reasons. Notably, today an office mate received his Varidesk of the same size. In side-by-side comparison with Varidesk, the Multitable is the clear winner! Just finished the first week with this, and I love it. This desk makes standing up so easy, and I can quickly raise it, keep working and stand for even longer periods. Getting up to take a break helps sometimes, but isn't always the best answer for days when there is much work to be done. My doctor actually recommended that I purchase this because I have lower back pain and sitting for too long aggravates it.
I'm very happy with my purchase and am enjoying the benefits of being able to sit or stand as needed while working. I use this with a large laptop and computer monitor sitting on top and still have plenty of space in front to put a notebook should I like to take notes while working.
Another great thing about this is that the handle is easy to reach and doesn't pinch at times. It easily adjusts to many heights, though. Furthermore, it goes up quite high which I like because I am on the taller side for most females (5'10"). I also love that the keyboard tray is large (and detachable). I love it! I compared this desk to other adjustable table top standing desks and chose this one because it was wider and easier to lift than most. The best one I have found at this competitive price.
