New Floor Stand Accessory Keeps iPad, iPad 2 at Eye Level For Cooking, Reading in Bed and More

If apps are what give the iPad its brain, then a new hands-free floor stand called the SwingHolder is its brawn, accordinf to Washington-based Stand for Stuff, which has just released a first-of-its kind, hinged floor unit that secures the iPad or iPad 2 at eye level, whether you’re lying in bed, standing at a kitchen counter or podium, or playing musical instruments.

“The iPad is an incredibly powerful device, but few people know its true potential until their hands are taken out of the equation,” says Stand for Stuff Founder and CEO Marty Springer. “While the obvious advantages of hands-free use are fantastic, some of its other applications are life-altering.”

Like many great inventions, necessity bred the SwingHolder’s birth. “My wife has a condition that makes it hard for her to hold things,” Springer explains. So to help her use her own electronic tablet, he jerry-rigged what ultimately became a prototype with some Plexiglas, a jigsaw and a microphone stand.

Since taking it to production, Springer has discovered many other SwingHolder benefits including:
– Independent iPad use for physically disabled
– Ability to practice or perform on instruments while accessing digital sheet music
– Exercise without equipment vibration
– Knitting while watching or reading instructions
– Following recipes and cooking without risk of spill or splatter
– Watching movies or reading while prone without arm fatigue
– Preventing iPad from falling or damage while in childrens possession, and much more.

The steel-grey-and-black floor unit stands 58 inches tall at its full height, but can swing as low as 5 off the ground. With the iPad securely in the SwingHolder’s rubberized-grip case, its 21″ arm (from the joint) rotates 360 degrees, allowing for custom positioning regardless of use. A heavy counterweight on the swing arm ensures the device will stay where it is positioned until adjusted for a new purpose.

Constructed from durable powder-coated steel tubing, 50% recycled ABS plastic and soft rubber and exclusively Made in USA, the SwingHolder snaps together in moments and features a 100% satisfaction guarantee.
