Can this be used for a free standing desk safely at 26" height (for my husband)?

It has to be anchored at the other end to something solid. Otherwise it should work.

You should be fine. Im 6'8 and its able to be set where my knees are at 90 degrees with no problem. The biggest problem you will have is fitting under your desk while having it that high.

The stand is 30" tall. Depending on where you position the top monitor, you could exceed that height. I have a 24" monitor on the bottom and a 22" monitor above it. The top of the 22" monitor is 28" above the desk.

Yep, sure can. I wasn't sure about this desk, but it has been very useful and very sturdy so far. Just watch out if you get a keyboard with some height - tends to rub in the underside of the shelf.

No, I'm afraid not. The unit is much lower than it appears (check the measurements given). Even if it were taller, the supports on both sides of the center shelf are half pieces which require the bottom shelves for installation. I'm only 5'2" and I just slid my chair over in front of mine (I use it in my office for storage right next to my computer) and it would be way too low, even for me. I love the unit, but it won't work as a desk. This company does make desks though, so maybe you could check those out! Good luck and have a great day! Susan

I did not purchase the stand because I already owned one. The stand I have is 26" tall which is pretty standard.

yes, for me, but I'm only five foot three and the stand is as high as it will go. On the other hand, my desk is 31 inches high, so if you have something that's higher it could possibly work. Good luck.

It should work quite well for that purpose. The only thing you may need to do, is purchase some small adhesive rubber feet or pads, to attach to the underside of the stand legs. That would ensure it wouldn't slide or slip on top of the desk.

I'd say not, it seems designed to clamp to the back edge of a desk, not for overhead use. The desk should be rather robust as well; I clamped it to the edge of a plastic foldable and the weight of the arm + monitors bent the table and wilted the whole arrangement.

That wont be necessary, once you have accomplished the appropriate angles to create a sturdy stance nothing is going to fall. I stand all day but on occasion I sit. I simple bring my keyboard down to my desk and move my monitor to the keyboard tray which is perfect eye level for me I am 5'7.

There's a pull out keyboard rest - as long as the cabinet is under 25 inches in height it should work

The foot base comes forward several inches to keep it from doing or. Using the mounting bold and drilling a hole through the bottom of your desk would probably provide the same support. I just have the foot stand and it is very stable with 3 24" Asus lcd monitors (older, heavy style).

I wouldn't recommend it! I don't think the hardware is sturdy enough to act as a pedestal sitting upright with the weight of a monitor. It was definitely designed to hang from something. I have a larger 22" monitor that I mounted to my desk using a different mount from a company called Mount-it that I purchased through Amazon. Here is the link to that product and it works very well mounting to a desk or any other flat surface. Mount-It!

Yes, it should work okay. It is adjustable, supports 250 pounds and I am 6' and it has 4 more inches of adjustment.

Probably not. I use a 22" monitor, and at the maximum height, the bottom of the monitor is 10" off my desk. The vertical support just isn't long enough.

Maybe.... but I wouldn't use this under a stand-up desk. It has to be in an incline position and because it is manual the movement is at times irregular and you may need to grab something for stability.

When placed on a desk with the legs deployed in a 'Z' configuration it is quite solid unless one would lean heavily on it. I'm 5'4" and I could easily type on the laptop standing up by the desk. The stand could be raised quite a few inches higher for someone taller and still remain fairly solid. I've uploaded a photo showing my installation over my Logitech Momo sim racing wheel.
