Here’s a thought I’ve been having for quite a while now. As desirable and functional as a product may be, price does play a pivotal role in whether someone purchases it or not… so sitting here, I’ve got no problems saying that Apple’s $1500 Pro Stand is an immaculately designed product, but is it good enough to be in my home or my office? Sadly, no it isn’t. What the Maxtand manages to get right is its ability to do quite what the Pro Stand does, at 5% of the price. Yep, you heard me right. With a price tag of just $85, the Maxtand is 95% cheaper than Apple’s Pro Stand, and it works with any laptop, monitor, or even with other accessories like a projector or a wireless keyboard. Maxtand comes from the same guys that brought us the for laptops, now with a maximum height of 15 inches, allowing you to not just height-adjust your laptop, but to turn your entire desk into a standing desk. With three pivot-points and pretty reliable friction-hinges inside them, the Maxtand can be used in a variety of configurations, at various angles, and can take loads of over 70 pounds. Designed to be powerfully versatile, it can be used with your laptop or your monitor to give you the precise angle and height you’re looking for. The Maxtand comes with a lightweight aircraft-grade aluminum body, and compresses to a mere height of 1.75 inches when completely shut, allowing you to easily move it around or carry it where you go. You can either clip it to your desk at work, use it as a hovering table when you’re working in bed, or even use it on the floor; with a desktop monitor, a tablet, or even a laptop, allowing you to work anywhere with comfort and without straining yourself. Whether you’re looking for a standing-desk setup, or whether you’d like to position your laptop at an angle as you type away on a wireless keyboard, or just if you need a small table to work while you’re on your sofa, or in bed, the Maxtand’s combination of a robust construction with a flexible and practical design (that works with monitors, laptops, tablets, projectors, etc.) makes it an ideal addition to your workspace, no matter where it is! Plus major points for that incredibly competitive price-tag. Creatio Design ($24 off). Hurry, only 5/335 left! The Maxtand turns any flat surface into a height-adjustable desk of up to 15 inches without taking up a ton of space. Portable and versatile standing arm for laptops, monitors and keyboards.
