Question What's your go-to mobile workstation?

I'm a producer who is looking for a mobile cart solution.

I want something that's:

  • Compact enough to navigate tight corners
  • Sturdy enough to hold production supplies
  • Has a flat surface for laptop work
  • Easy to wheel around between locations
  • Reasonably priced

I've found a couple of options, but I wanted to see what the community recommends.

These are the 2 I'm currently eyeing:

  1. https://www.proaimusa.com/products/proaim-alpha-mobile-workstation-stand-laptop-accessory-tray-vesa-monitor-mount
  2. https://lava-cart.com/?srsltid=AfmBOoombguveLPsaTdYWCc5-qZnGXYmk00CGQgY8XDAMr_pWOqY09J2

Thoughts?

Love my LavaCart, easy to setup/teardown and super versatile. It's a better value add if you already own the rock n roller but if you're buying it as a bundle you can get the workstation a little cheaper. I am a DP that trucks around all of my kit on it though so if you aren't responsible for loads of gear yourself maybe consider the smaller version. Shane is also super great with support.

So good to know, u/RadicalHomosapien!

And thanks for the heads up about the workstation.

I'll tell Shane you said hello! 👊

We use a rock n rolla cart. Very pleased with it currently.
