    Chrissie,

    If you want a podium that will last for years and take the abuse of moving in and out of closets I would recommend talking to MAX-R.  They color matched my institutions colors and created a beautiful logo.    Locking doors, computer shelves, laptop rest, easy to add gooseneck microphone or microphone arm to.  I got great response from my campus when we replaced our older formal wooden podium with our new Max-R version.

     

    Thanks

     

    Michael

    Hi Chrissie-

    We used Executive Wood Products:?https://executivewood.com/lecterns-and-podiums and went with “The Counselor” model. They have held up well to the wear and tear we put them through and are a good size for laptops and other presenter needs.?

    We also added this product in black to add microphones more easily to them.?https://www.pulse-audio.co.uk/product/pls00424/

          At the Rayburn Student Center we usually have lifted them onto our big conference room stage, with 2 or more people for safety. But last semester we have had a ramp on the backside of the stage which makes rolling things up on stage a lot easier!

            Thanks so much Rob!!!? Could you send me the link or a photo of the ramp that you use?? Not sure if you mean the ADA ramp that connects to the staging or if it’s an additional piece.? Our room would not be able to handle the ADA ramp up at all times.??

              Chrissie,

              Harbor Freight makes a folding ramp that will hold 500+ lbs- we have used them in the past to roll wheeled Podiums on the stage.??

              Thanks so much Rob!!!  Could you send me the link or a photo of the ramp that you use?  Not sure if you mean the ADA ramp that connects to the staging or if it’s an additional piece.  Our room would not be able to handle the ADA ramp up at all times.

              At the Rayburn Student Center we usually have lifted them onto our big conference room stage, with 2 or more people for safety. But last semester we have had a ramp on the backside of the stage which makes rolling things up on stage a lot easier!

              Thanks everyone!  I have reached out to Max-R…one other question…how do you or your staff get the podiums onto your staging?  by lifting?

              Chrissie,

              We also used MAX-R for our recent order of podiums.  They are exceptional and look great. We bought two sizes.  The smaller have a shelf that comes out for our laptop use.
