This stand will raise your monitor to the perfect height. Let's check it out
0:11
Dave Taylor here and I'm checking out this. This is the Boyota Monitor Riser Stand and it's a
0:16
really nice adjustable metal stand. Now if you're like a lot of people you probably have things too
0:23
low so if you're working on your laptop for example you're probably hunching over and looking down and
0:29
that gives you shoulder aches, gives you headaches, it's more fatiguing. So much better is to raise
0:36
things up so you can sit with a nice erect posture. That is a much better ergonomic position
0:42
That's what the purpose of a monitor riser stand is and the Boyota is a really nice one. As you can
0:47
see it is nice and strong and stable and it supports up to 33 pounds which is 15 kilograms
0:56
So you can put a lot heavier monitor than this little Acer on here but let me take this off and
1:02
show you some other things because it also as you can see lets you put your keyboard in the bottom
1:09
nice and easily too and that's really nice because there's a lot of monitor stands that are like this
1:14
sort of shape but the problem is is that it looks great in the photo but then when you get one you
1:20
find out that your keyboard's an inch too wide. So in this scenario even this super wide keyboard
1:27
works just fine and of course the real cool thing about this is it's adjustable so loosen it up you
1:35
can raise it up and its height goes from 4.3 to 7.5 inches that's 11 to 19 centimeters and then
1:44
you tighten it up you put your monitor back on it and you're ready to go. Now I have a monitor on
1:50
it but I could use a TV I could use like a big iMac or something I could put my laptop on here
1:56
if that's what I wanted to do and I needed the extra space it's really nice it's really well
2:02
designed easy to work with there's no spring in here so you do have to manually adjust the height
2:09
and then you just tighten it up. How's it put together? Well there's two screws on the bottom
2:15
and two screws on the top and let me give you two handy hints after I did everything wrong the first
2:20
time I built it is number one have the control facing outward because your temptation is to have
2:28
the name facing out but then it's really hard to adjust it so I would recommend doing it this way
2:35
and the second thing is on the bottom they have these non-skid pads so that makes it really easy
2:40
to understand orientation but on the top they don't have anything like that so you want to
2:46
look and make sure you assemble it so that the screws have a recessed spot so that they go
2:53
flush and the whole thing is flush with the top. Here's a close-up to show you what I mean by that
2:58
so once you have all that assembled and it does come with its little tiny allen wrench makes it
3:03
easy they even include two extra screws which I really appreciate it's easily built and ready to
3:10
roll and there's really nothing not to like about it it's a really nice solid solution it is fairly
3:17
heavy it's 5.8 or 2.6 kilograms sorry 5.8 pounds so it is not really something you're going to be
3:25
taking to the local coffee shop but who does that I mean that would be really weird so in terms of
3:30
dimensions the top is 9 inches by 11.4 inches yes 23 by 29 centimeters and then the bottom as you
3:38
can see is a little bit smaller it's actually 9.3 inches wide so actually I guess I should do it
3:46
this way so it's 9.3 inches wide and then it is by depth it is 7.8 inches and that's 24 by 20
3:55
centimeters so that's really it I've given you all the specs it is strong it is stable as heck
4:02
you can see here this is going to work really well even if you have a big like 4k monitor like a 28
4:10
inch monitor or something this will work just fine for that and it really will revolutionize
4:15
your workspace and most importantly it'll change your posture which will make you feel better this
4:20
is like a health device right so really one worth checking out it comes in black or silver that's
4:28
really all I have to say about it so other than the price but before I get to the price let me
4:32
ask if you could go ahead and click or tap on that subscribe button really appreciate when you
4:37
subscribe to my channel and let me know give me some feedback a comment tell me what you wish I
4:42
would have shown more of or less of and thumbs up if you feel I earned it that always is appreciated
4:51
cool this is the Boyota monitor riser stand and it's $35.99 although I looked on Amazon just now
4:59
and it's $30.59 in black or silver at amazon.com definitely a game changer if you have a monitor
5:08
or a desktop setup definitely one worth checking out and I love that I can just slip my keyboard
5:13
in here and keep my desk even that much neater so definitely one to check out and I'll catch you
