- Product type
- Two-tier standing desk converter
Description
Keep your existing desk and raise the screen, keyboard and mouse together. The Pro Plus 48 has a broad upper platform for monitors and a lower input-device tray, giving the workstation two distinct levels as it moves between seated and standing positions.
Squeeze the two side handles and guide the spring-assisted mechanism to one of its preset heights. The lift moves upward and back toward the user, so allow clearance around the converter and slack in monitor and peripheral cables throughout the full movement.
Features
- 48 in upper platform: space for a compatible dual-monitor arrangement, subject to the size of the monitor bases.
- Separate keyboard tray: keeps the keyboard and mouse below the monitor platform.
- Spring-assisted lift: manual two-handle operation without an electric motor.
- 11 height positions: preset stops from the lowered to the raised position.
- 45 lb equipment capacity: count monitors, mounts and other supported equipment together.
- Arrives assembled: no frame assembly or permanent desk conversion is specified.

How much height does it add?
These measurements describe the upper platform above your existing desk, not its height above the floor. Add your desk height to estimate the monitor platform's final position. Check the keyboard tray separately for a comfortable typing height.

Common questions
Does it require electricity?
No. The lift is spring-assisted and operated with the two side handles.
Is 17.5 in the standing height from the floor?
No. It is the upper platform's maximum height above the existing desk. Your desk height is added to that measurement.
Will two large monitors fit?
The platform is designed for dual-monitor use, but fit depends on the bases, total weight and screen positioning. Check those measurements against the platform and 45 lb equipment limit.
Can I use it on any desk?
The desk must support the converter and equipment, accommodate its base, and remain stable throughout movement. A narrow or lightly built desk may not be suitable.
