How stable is this? Does the top move around and vibrate much, or will it be ok to hold something somewhat vibration-sensitive? Thanks!

I have a laptop, a large flat-screen monitor, a keyboard and a mouse on mine and there is no noticeable movement when I'm working. But if you push on it, it will move a little. If you plan to use it for something other than its intended purpose with some equipment that is vibration-sensitive I hesitate to predict what will happen.

It was purchased for another employee - they like it - they use their laptop on it - it is not currently handling anything that vibrates - - I would gather that after a while with constant vibration it would loosen to some degree.

Very steady. I have had it on my desk for over a year and have knocked the desk. It doesn't rock or move when I bump the desk.

It is surprisingly sturdy and balanced, if it is an ink jet it might wobble when it is printing. It wouldn't fall over.I have a 3 year old visitor that uses it as a personal table and she hasn't had any issues with tipping.the base is really solid. I put a round placemat on it and if you put a printer on it, you might want to put one on it too.

I have not noticed any particular vibration problem. I have it in my bedroom with a flat screen sitting on top of it.

quite sturdy.... I am a 265 lb guy and I can climb over it and wiggle around and turn around with no problems or creeks or moans and my wife puts almost all her weight on me when doing some massage positions and so far no collapses.

Our Convenience Concepts glass stand (as pictured here) has held our 42" flat screen TV for about 8 months or so. No indication that it is not stable and secure. I am not so sure I would trust a heavy old (NOT flat screen) on it. Ours seems very substantial. Hope it works for you.

It's very sturdy. Mine sits on a gym mat. Since it's not bolted down, it's only gonna be as sturdy as your floor is evenly flat. I haven't had mine shake on me. My friend claims when he's struggling on the dips, he's had it slightly shake. Nothing extreme like tipping over. Obviously because if you let your body shake, the tower will too. Rock solid in my opinion.

It is very stable, but I don't recommend you put a monitor on it.i just put my laptop and papers on it.

It doesn't tip or collapse if not full, it's flat on the bottom so it is fairly stable.

The top does not actually "lock" in place. When raised it is pretty sturdy and stays in place, but just pushing it slightly forward will easily lower it. That said, I do not worry about it accidentally lowering on it's own. Very nice, heavy table, but the screws holding the table top did strip on my unit and the top came loose. I replaced the screws with larger ones and it seems quite sturdy now. I had to remove the coasters on my unit because those screws also stripped and became loose. I put sliders on the legs and I can still easily move the table on my tile floor.

It does not shake. Mine is seated on an area rug and is sturdy for it's size.

This stand is very sturdy, stability isn't an issue, in fact the heavier the keyboard the more stable it should be. I haven't noticed any shaking and I do usually pound away (I'm more concerned with the keyboard being able to take it) but since you asked, I can get the stand to wobble left and right a bit if I push and deliberately try to get it to sway laterally but it has absolutely no movement up and down or front to back no matter how much force I use. It takes deliberate effort to make it move sideways, not something you would normally do, you could beat this stand with a sledgehammer and it wouldn't shake, I don't think you should have any concerns.

It is lightweight, so I guess it could be knocked over, but it's never been an issue for me. I'd say it's pretty steady.

Yes, stable as with vibration and up/down motion. I would recommend separating the positioning of the monitors so they are not touching when the vehicle is in motion. You could just separate the two monitors by about 6 inches on the swivel and maybe put a soft bumper between them when moving. However, they should be safe from any damage otherwise. Hope this is helpful. Steve

There isn't a whole lot of vibration at all. Make sure your surface is steady. I was on a fold out table first and it did vibrate. When I moved it to my wooden table it wasn't noticeable at all. Hope that helps.

It is quite sturdy. I have had it for a few months and I have not experienced any wobbling or shaking.

I love it, but I do not have to worry about tipping over. It is stable for me, but truth be told, I could tip it very easily. It is not very wide. And it is not very heavy. For someone elderly, you might want to get a bigger heavier model. Or, if you could attach this to a heavy base with 4 U bolts.
