Can the base be removed from the unit and lie down flat?

Yes, the base does not need to be installed and lay the unit flat. However, I am not sure about the heat ventilation if you lay it directly on the surface of a table. The good thing is the ventilation holes are the edge sides which are not covered!

It's not designed to be easily removed from the base, which is screwed on. It can be done, though.

No, not without taking the base apart. The base end is too wide for the base.

Yes, it's possible to detach the base from the receiver, but not recommended. The unit gets warm after a couple of hours of use and it needs as much ventilation to cool it as possible. That's why you see ventilation holes on both the top and bottom of the unit.

No, Must lay flat. I do not recommend this product though. Mine failed after 2 months.

You can if you want but I just leave it freestanding so I can slide it across the base cabinet when I need to reach for the back part.

Yes you can. It has one setting below flat by removing the cylindrical support bar completely. It's a great bench for the money, I've been using it for about a year with no problems.

Yes, it can be removed, but I prefer the entire unit....it is wonderfully constructed to swivel and move in most directions imaginable.

If you are asking if the shelving unit can be removed to leave just the table then no. The shelf unit acts as a supporting leg.

It's design to be upright. You can remove the base but there is no stable base to lay it flat. It will wobble.

Yes, it can be removed. This is a great stand. We bought it to support a 42-inch flat screen television and are using it in a trade show. The stand is quite heavy, as it should be. We need to use the shelf but, as I said, it is removable.

Yes you can. However, if you decide to move it without emptying it, the weight may cause stress on the joints, thereby making it wobbly. It does not have a back or anything to make it more stable.

Yes BUT it's removable from the right side so unless your unit sticks out past the wall/window sill, you'll have to pull the whole unit out of the window to remove it.

No, it's a 2 piece unit. The only way to remove is to cut it off from plastic base.

There is a "pin" that you pull to release the unit from it's seated position which allows the unit to lay flat.

The base can be inserted between horizontal layers of the bed, i.e., between matteress & box springs, between springs and frame (slats). It doesn't have to rest on the floor.

Laura, yes you can fully remove the base...the display and the base are two separate parts that need to be assemble, or not in your case.
