Appearance and Maintenance

Ergotron WorkFit-S Dual Monitor Sit-Stand Workstation is an aesthetically pleasing workstation that goes with almost any kind of desktop and room interior. It only comes in Black color with chrome accents which provides a decent and sophisticated outlook. It is constructed from durable aluminum, high-grade plastic, and powder coated painted steel. It is easy to clean which requires minimum effort in maintenance. It can accommodate two monitors side by side to improve productivity and efficiency. With an added accessory of the Hinged bow, the monitors can be turned to share the screen with other individuals. Since it accommodates two screens, the surface to which it is attached should be strong enough to hold the combined weight of the workstation. Sometimes, the height-adjustable unit does not stay in the position where it is pushed which requires tightening of certain clamps and screws. The details of maintenance of this kind are outlined in the product information document supplied with the desk riser.
