I was very kindly sent the #Nexstand K2 Portable Laptop Stand to help enhance my home workstation set up. Nexstand have been in business since 2016 and I honestly can’t believe I have only recently discovered them.
The K2 is a great piece of kit. It’s height adjustable, compact, lightweight, affordable and very sturdy. My experience of ergonomic products also tells me I would be hard pushed to find another cost-effective, portable laptop stand that has such a vast range of height adjustability. For example, the top of my 13” 2011 MacBook Pro screen can raise to 500 mm from the desktop!
If I were to be critical, there is only one reason I would make a recommendation for an alternative laptop stand; that is if the user reported to regularly work with paper documents for copy-typing/referencing tasks, as the K2 does not feature a built-in document holder like some others on the market. But overall, since my discovery of Nexstand, this has been my go-to recommendation to help reduce the risks of awkward, forward postures that are so often associated with laptop use.
Thank you Nexstand for sending me this product, it is an effective solution for so many!
