Guide & know-how
Laptop stands at RPD — from flat travel stands to solid aluminium stands with height-adjustable column. We stock X-shape folding stands for home-office and co-working, vertical mounts that hold a MacBook upright to save desk space, and Z-shape models with 6–10 tilt steps for the right eye-screen height. Recommended height: top of screen at eye level — relieves neck and shoulders. Ships from our Basel warehouse, same-day dispatch by 4 pm, free above CHF 15 and 2-year Swiss warranty. Invoice payment available (credit check by Powerpay).
For home-office a height-adjustable aluminium stand at 25–50 cm is ideal — top of screen at eye level. For co-working and travel X-shape folding stands in aluminium are perfect: light (200–400 g), set up in 30 seconds, fits any notebook bag. If the MacBook runs closed with an external display (clamshell mode), a vertical mount saves desk real estate.
Aluminium stands double as a heat sink and cool the MacBook by around 2–5 °C. Robust, durable and stylistically matched to Apple''s design. Plastic stands are lighter and cheaper but don''t conduct heat. Wood stands in bamboo or walnut are the sustainable premium option but require care to prevent staining.
All stands fit MacBooks from 13″ to 16″ and generic notebooks 13–17.3″. Look for a 5–10 kg load rating and a base at least 30 cm wide. For the heavy MacBook Pro 16″ choose 10 kg capacity. Vertical mounts work for every MacBook since 2016 (closed-lid mode with external display + keyboard + mouse).
Ergonomic rule: top of screen at eye level, keyboard separate at desk height, mouse to the right. Look for non-slip silicone pads top and bottom — otherwise the MacBook slides. Recycled aluminium is sustainable, anodised finishes prevent scratches on the chassis. CE compliance is voluntary for desk accessories in Switzerland — we check every product for stability and edge safety.
