I actually called Vari about the crossbar and the updated model doesn't require a crossbar for stability.

The BTOD reviews are from a company that doesn't sell Vari products (only competing brands), so even though they claim to be unbiased you might want to take that with a grain of salt. I ordered a few days ago based on reviews and am not planning to put a 50 lb dumbbell in the center of the desk so hopefully the stability isn't an issue.

The reviewed desk has crossbar support. This one doesn't.

Here is the recommended list on Wirecutter: https://www.nytimes.com/wirecutte...ding-desk/
They rate Vari as one of the stable ones. I went with their top recommended Uplift V2 commercial frame.

here's a somewhat unbiased review: https://www.btod.com/blog/2018/03...sk-review/

edit: I guess I should've been more clear when I said "somewhat unbiased". Take their assessments with caution, but I found it useful to see the breakdown of the components within the desk.

This is definitely better than autonomous.ai home version desk. It has two stage column , which means it can raise higher with more power. The assembly is a lot easier in this. It took me two hours to fully assemble autonomous.ai desk. This desk also has extra accessories under the panel. I would buy this if I haven't had autonomous.ai.

But this one is $50 more, I bought my autonomous.ai home version for $400 way back.

The Monoprice ones seem sturdier and look better without that faux rustic top.

I bought the vari prodesk that had a cross support bar.... I guess the discontinued that model? I just bought it less than a year ago, it cost like $800... Odd.

Thanks OP, I pulled the trigger on one. I like the option of returning in store just in case.

I don't see why not. Just have to find the right height and a way to get to the controller on the treadmill.
