VARIO Desk ICON

Desks for individual workstations

The VARIO ICON collection brings together straight desks designed for one person. Both models have a rectangular melamine tabletop and a steel base, making the family suitable for focused desk work in offices and other shared or dedicated work areas.

Manual height adjustment lets you set the desk without Bluetooth or powered controls. Available options include several tabletop sizes and surface colors, so you can consider both the space available and the look of your workspace.

Compare the two ICON configurations

The Extension model uses locking-screw height adjustment. The Workbench model is also manually height-adjustable and has a four-leg steel base. Compare these configurations based on the adjustment design and frame details that matter to your setup.

Options vary across the collection: linkability and whether a cable tray is included depend on the selected desk. Check the details for the specific configuration before choosing.

All VARIO Desk ICON models

Choosing a VARIO ICON desk for your workspace

Start by considering how the desk will be used and where it will sit. ICON desks are single-person, straight desks, so they suit individual workstations rather than shared table layouts. Measure the intended location, including the space needed for a chair and movement around the desk, before comparing tabletop dimensions.

Listed widths range from 80 to 240 cm, with depths of 80, 90 and 160 cm. These options may not be available for every configuration. Check the dimensions shown for the specific model you are considering, and compare them with your room plan and workstation requirements.

Compare adjustment and frame details

Extension or Workbench

The Extension desk uses locking-screw height adjustment. The Workbench desk is manually height-adjustable and has a four-leg steel base. Both belong to a family of manually adjustable desks; the collection does not list Bluetooth control. When comparing, focus on the adjustment mechanism and frame configuration rather than assuming one option has a particular height range, which is not specified here.

Linking and cable management

Linkability differs across the available options: the collection includes desks marked both linkable and not linkable. If you are planning a row or layout with adjoining desks, verify the selected model’s linkability before settling on a configuration.

The desks are listed as suitable for a cable tray, but tray inclusion varies. Check whether the specific desk includes one, or plan to select a compatible tray separately if needed. Allow for power and cable routes when arranging the workstation.

Choose finishes and review the details

Tabletops are melamine, with listed surface colors including beige, black, blue, grey, white, green and red. Steel base finishes include black, silver and white. Use these options to coordinate the workstation with existing furniture, while checking which combinations are offered for the model and size you select. The listed tabletop thickness is 19 mm.

Collection attributes also list Nordic Swan Ecolabel and PEFC Certified options, a two-year warranty and circularity. Confirm the applicable details for the particular configuration rather than treating every attribute as universal across the family.

What to check before selecting

  • Confirm the desk’s width, depth and available finish options.
  • Compare the Extension locking-screw mechanism with the Workbench four-leg configuration.
  • Check whether your chosen option is linkable and whether a cable tray is included.
  • Review the configuration-specific warranty and certification information.

Once you have identified a suitable size and configuration, Myntwork offers VARIO ICON desks on a monthly lease. Review the selected desk’s listed options and terms to make sure they fit your workspace plan.
