Can the desk be raised while loaded? Also, how much cranking would that require?

The desk can be cranked with items on it. It's fairly easy to crank with weight on it.

The horizontal axis can be raised or lowered. There are various holes on the vertical pillar to lock into for a choice in height from the desk.

Yes - you can raise the shelf up, but you have to keep in mind that it provides the stability of the whole thing by tying the 4 legs together in conjunction with the top. If you put it up too high, the legs may become less stable. It's rock-solid as depicted.

The desk will be fairly stable. Those parts aren't required for structural support, though the bottom shelf is nice for assembly purposes (alignment reasons). I also don't recommend moving it after assembly if you can avoid it. It's not the sturdiest desk, but it's good for everyday use. Hope this helps

Yes, you can raise it to 8" or so from the top, and lower it nearly to the floor. Pretty easy to do, just takes an Allen wrench and 10-15 minutes of time.

Deb, thank you for your question! The desks have strong aluminum legs that can easily support 75 pounds. We do do have customers who use a dual monitor stand on these desk. Please let us know if you have any other questions. All the best, Stand Steady

I can lift it with one hand. It's a just a lap desk. Positioning is super easy and quick. I open it and put my computer on it and it's ready to go - highly recommend it if you're thinking about it.

I don't have anything incredibly heavy on here; however, because it uses the wall as support and has pretty sturdy legs I'd say quite a bit of weight wouldn't be an issue. I love this desk!

I don't think it would be as stable. However, the legs are adjustable in height. I have it on the lowest setting and it's already higher than an average desk chair. The adjustments could take it up by another 4 inches, so would probably work fine.

Maybe 50lbs. The metal legs with composite desktop are pretty solid. I keep mine against a wall so it's braced and it doesn't move and it seems sturdy. I keep a computer, mug, clock and stack of papers on it and it's fine. The legs are held in place by two metal catches underneath which can come unhooked if you lift the desk up. I did it once and learned quickly.

The desktop is attached. Looks like it is attached with a couple of long screws. You could loosen it, but I don't think it is simple. When I've moved by desk, it takes to people to lift it.

No, but all you have to do is install the 4 legs,they are held in place bar bolts and a tool is included. place the desk upside down on the floor to install.It is a good idea to have some help as the desk is a little heavy , although you could simply turn it on it's side to rotate it into an upright position. If you don't have some one to help move it, assemble it close to where you plan to place it.X

I myself have not had to do such a thing, but, if I had to raise the monitor, then I would get something to fit under the base to make the monitor higher, like a box or piece of wood or custom make something to fit under.

This stand is designed to be set and left. It takes a wrench to move it. You would be better off with a moveable desk.

I don't happen to keep heavy stuff on this desk so I really don't know. The legs are thin so I am guessing that the weight capacity is not too great.

It depends on the desk and the angle you are setting the stamina Instride at.Truthfully, if your desk has a key board shelf, you will probably have a very close, if not impossible, clearance for the way we use it at our house. If you lowered it to the lowest level, there is a possibility, BUT, the angle will be so shallow that you will probably be pushing the unit more than pedaling it - if you do not have a matt to make sure it does not "run away" from you.

I suppose you could. I'd probably drill into the desk and mount it directly. The beams underneath kinda need to do their job of supporting the desk.
