Why put a $2000 laptop on a $50 stand?

Get the crane and be set for life.
I bring mine to every gig and my shitty L stand is collecting dust in my closet.

i been wanting to get a crane stand, the only thing that stops me is it doesn't look like it sits high, i set my turntable coffins on top of the lidz to raise them up, the l stand lets me put my laptop high

i stack my tt cases and the stand fits over top of em. you get about 3-4 inches clearence.

Uberstand all the way mate.
steviekmotion 10:09 AM - 26 August, 2011
how come man?
DJ Trixsta 10:11 AM - 26 August, 2011
I agree the Crane is top notch wont have any problems.. but ive had the uberstand for ages, no problems what so ever. rock solid. Folds away into a little back.. not had any problems with it didnt see the need to get something more expensive. when it does the job.

i dont like the fact u have to use a tie to hold it together mate!
DJ Remy USA 12:28 PM - 26 August, 2011
You know I don't even use that zip tie that came with it. The laptop is heavy enough with chill hub added it always leans forward instead of leaning back. Maybe if your rocking a smaller laptop but I rock a 15 inch. The crane is nicer than the uber but the uber does good for me
steviekmotion 9:35 PM - 26 August, 2011
ive got a 13 inch macbook...think im gnna go for the crane n then hpflly it will last me forever :)
djpuma_gemini 9:49 PM - 26 August, 2011
It will last and it's made in the US. I've been to their facilities. They didn't just want to make a stand to make one, they made it to aid dj's and not just make money on a product, they were tired of the shit stands out there.
MelonHead 10:15 PM - 26 August, 2011
whats da big difference.... ITS STILL JUST A STAND!!!
djpuma_gemini 10:44 PM - 26 August, 2011

ninos 10:52 PM - 26 August, 2011
