Description

Sleek and slender, this metal laptop table glides up and down on a pneumatic column, hovering over the arm of a sofa or settling low across your lap. A gentle push or pull is all it takes to find the right height.

Its weighted base slides beneath seating to keep the surface close and stable, then moves aside easily on nylon glides when you are done. Choose crisp Salt or deep, inky Pepper to suit the room.

Design Details

  • Pneumatic cylinder for smooth, effortless height adjustment with a simple push or pull
  • Rounded edge on the metal top for a comfortable work surface
  • Low-profile weighted base that slides under a sofa or chair to keep the table close and stable
  • Nylon glides move easily without marring hard floors
  • Aluminum and steel construction with a durable powder-coated finish in Pepper or Salt
  • Designed for indoor use

Dimensions

Width21.75 in
Height20.5 to 30.5 in

Why You'll Love It

  • It adjusts in seconds, so one table serves as a laptop desk, a snack stand and a reading perch.
  • The slim base disappears beneath the sofa, putting the top right where you need it.
  • Clean, minimal metal lines keep it light and unobtrusive in any room.

Warranty

Manufacturer warranty

BDI warrants its furniture to the original purchaser against defects in material and workmanship for three years from the date of delivery under residential use, and select chairs for five years. If a covered product, part or component fails under normal use, BDI will replace it with a comparable part or product.

Coverage applies to new pieces bought from an authorized BDI retailer like Seldens that are assembled, used and maintained according to BDI's instruction manual. To start a claim, contact Seldens with your original sales receipt. Natural wood variation, sun fading, normal wear, scratches, pet damage, floor samples, and open-box or as-is items are not covered.

Every piece is backed by its manufacturer's warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. Coverage varies by brand.

Easy Care accident protection

For life's accidents — spills, pets, rips, burns — add our Easy Care protection plan for 5 years of coverage. Never use it? It converts to Seldens store credit toward your next piece.
