Create a comfortable, powerful desktop setup.

Spend a lot of time at a desk with your laptop? Use BookArc Flex to turn your laptop into a powerful mini desktop. This tiny stand makes room for a full-size keyboard, mouse and external monitor, improving comfort and productivity. Taking your laptop to a meeting or home for the night is as simple as unplugging it and lifting it out of BookArc Flex.

Small desk? Big monitor? No problem.

Small desk? Big monitor?
No problem.

By holding your MacBook vertically, BookArc Flex frees up space for that big display you’ve been dreaming of. You can even slide BookArc Flex and your MacBook behind your monitor to save even more space. Need to take your MacBook on the road? Just unplug it and go.

Minimalist design for maximum focus.

Minimal design for
maximum focus.

Perhaps the real beauty of BookArc Flex is that it allows you to use one large display. Whether you’re editing a video, writing a blog post, or diving deep into a Numbers sheet, having one big screen helps you laser focus on the project. Using your MacBook in Closed Display Mode is a thing of beauty in itself.

Future-proof design.

BookArc Flex is designed to hold your MacBook or laptop without additional adjustments or extra inserts (compatible with most laptops with screens up to 16" and less than 1-inch thick). So this stand will hold the laptop you own now and the laptop you’ll upgrade to next year.
How sweet is that?

Design focus in mind.

Inspired by modern architecture, BookArc Flex is truly a minimalist work of art, that uses the weight of your laptop to secure the arcs against your laptop, allowing for universal compatibility without the need for inserts. This design focus is even reflected in the finishes, with a matte black and matte white inspired by interior design trends, and a beautiful premium chrome edition with a mirrored finish that reflects the room it's in.

BookArc FAQs

Just how sturdy is BookArc Flex?
BookArc Flex holds most laptops with up to a 16-inch screen and under 1-inch thick, perfectly sturdy. But use common sense; if your office is in a bumpy construction zone, or you have cats walking all over your desk and they have knocked down items before, you might want an entirely different style stand like our Twelve South Curve Flex.
Also note: We recommend you set your laptop into BookArc Flex as straight as possible (90 degrees to the desk), as BookArc will not correct an improperly placed laptop.
With these considerations, we find BookArc Flex to be a beautiful and sturdy vertical stand for your MacBook or laptop.
Will I need to purchase inserts when upgrading to a newer machine?
As long as it is within the compatible dimensions, BookArc Flex will work with any laptop you have now or that you may buy in the future. No ifs, ands or add-ons!
Where can I find the beautiful wallpapers shown on this page?
Right here! We were so inspired by the redesign of our original BookArc stand that we created a collection of custom high-res wallpapers to pay homage to its unique design. All are available to download for free on this page.

    Vertical laptop stands

    After using the Book Arc Flex for 2 weeks I can say that it’s the best vertical stand I have ever used.

    With its minimalistic and high tech design it complements the look of your apple gear.
