⚡ At a Glance
- • Height Range: 115 mm to 505 mm for flexible sit and stand positions
- • Best for: Home office workers and desk gamers seeking ergonomic posture
- • Not ideal for: Setups where equipment exceeds 15 kg total
Dual-tier 800 × 400 mm workstation raises via gas spring assisted lift. Separate keyboard tray supports ergonomic typing and monitor placement.
Improved posture and typing comfort – with separate keyboard tray and adjustable height
Gas spring assistance and dual squeeze latches allow controlled height changes between 115 mm and 505 mm, while the dedicated keyboard tray keeps hands lower than the monitor platform. The scissor-lift mechanism stabilises movement and prevents sudden drops.
A more natural head and neck alignment reduces strain during long sessions, and a lower keyboard position helps keep wrists comfortable when typing.
Fast sit-stand transitions – thanks to gas spring assisted lift
Precision gas spring action combined with dual squeeze latches enables smooth, micro-adjustable lifts and lowers without tools. The mechanism absorbs motion so height changes are stable and repeatable.
Switching between sitting and standing takes seconds, encouraging regular movement breaks without interrupting workflow or gaming.
Stable monitor support – with solid steel frame and reinforced MDF tabletop
A wide MDF upper platform sits on a reinforced scissor-lift and solid steel frame, engineered to hold up to 15 kg with minimal wobble. A pre-drilled hole accepts monitor grommet mounts or compatible stand attachments.
Monitors and a compact docking arrangement remain steady during typing and height adjustments, suitable for single-monitor setups and compact dual-monitor arrangements within the weight limit.
