Laptop Accessories from Bakker-Elkhuizen!

ErgoCanada.com is excited to announce that we are now offerring the full line of laptop workstations by Bakker-Elkhuizen. The concept behind their accessories is simple:

offer variable elevation of the laptop screen so it can be raised to an optimal height and depth (distance from the user)
provide a built-in document holder (which rests on top of the laptop keyboard) and is immediately below the screen, eliminating the need to look from right to left - now the screen, documents and keyboard can all be in one vertical line, reducing undue head and neck motion
when used with a separate keyboard and mousing solution, you have a complete ergonomic workstation solution for the laptop, and can realize savings as there is no need to purchase a monitor as the laptop screen can now be used without discomfort

Two models of this innovative laptop workstation - document holder are available.

Ergo-Q - pictured above and at right, this unit is made of aluminum and folds up for easy transport.

Ergo-Top - pictured at left, this unit is made of durable transparent PMMA and allows you to secure the unit, mouse, keyboard and laptop with only one laptop lock.

A reduced footprint keyboard, the Q-Board, is also available from
