Plan Station Portable Workstation – Hefty Pop-Up Office
The Plan Station® is a portfolio-style standing desk and portable workstation that’s height-adjustable, light but heavy-duty, and chocked with integrated compartments. Invariably, tryers and buyers of the Plan Station laud it as a strategic platform perfect for stationary and temporary environments. And the workstation is available in two sizes to fit your demands as well as your limiters. Let’s have a closer look.

Portable Workstation Setup
Either hang the Plan Station portable workstation from two sturdy fixing points or prop it open on a preexisting plane.
- Hanging Setup – The top corners of each Plan Station include two integrated, heavy-duty metal rings for an efficient, pain-free setup. Just install the two sturdy hangers (included) 48 inches apart (Plan Station Pro) or 32 inches apart (Plan Station Pro Mini) and at the height of your choice. Hang the portable workstation and get to work.
- Freestanding Setup – For a freestanding configuration, insert 32-inch dowels into the diagonal side webbings’ sleeves, then set the station atop a stable surface.
Multipurpose: Here, There, Everywhere
It’s worth noting that the Plan Station portable desk and workstation, despite comprising extremely durable fabric, is flammable and is not waterproof. Please exercise caution when selecting the placement of your portable workstation.
That said, the Plan Station is an excellent option for temporary day use at open-air job sites or truck beds. It excels at long-term indoor use in environments like storage sheds, ventilated garages, craft spaces, conference and expo centers. And, if you’re working from home until further notice, you might consider making it your home office desk.
Buy-Bye
Available directly from the maker, the Plan Station Pro goes for the bargain price of $50. The Plan Station Mini? A painless $30.
There are many options on the ‘work-from-home’ front these days; most lack some combination of portability, roominess, standing/sitting dexterity, endurance, and affordability. Not so with the Plan Station portable desk and workstation; it’s a simple solution to several common workspace shortcomings, which makes us wonder why someone didn’t patent the thing sooner.
