QuickStand Lite features an innovative counterbalance mechanism that enables users of varying heights to transition from sitting to standing positions with ease, offering 20” of total height range and an added 5.5” of vertical monitor adjustment. Its effortless functionality encourages users to build more movement into their daily routine for long-term health.
An adjustable keyboard and monitor arm platform provides stability while typing. The main assembly holds single or dual monitors up to 25 pounds and can be converted to either configuration with minimal tools and components.
QuickStand Lite can be attached to any existing, fixed-height desk. Its minimal footprint frees up space, and its unique adjustability works well for home or corporate workspaces, temporary hot desks, collaborative workstations and check-in points.
