The DECOSIS stand is an adjustable tripod with a wide tray platform that raises a projector from 23.5 inches up to 46.5 inches, with a tilting head. The height range is the whole point: a projector sitting on a coffee table throws the image at the floor and forces you into keystone correction, which softens the picture. Getting the lens level with the screen center gives a sharper image than any software correction can. The tray also fits a laptop, a DJ controller or a small speaker. The legs fold down for storage and it is light enough to carry outside. Best fit: backyard movie nights and rented apartments where you cannot ceiling-mount. The tradeoff is that a tripod is less stable than a shelf with kids or pets around.

Pros

  • Adjusts from 23.5 to 46.5 inches, enough to get the lens level with the screen
  • Tilting head means less keystone correction and a sharper picture
  • Tray fits a laptop, controller or speaker, so it is not single-purpose
  • Folds down and is light enough to carry outside for a backyard setup

Cons

  • A tripod is less stable than a shelf, so it is easy to knock over on a hard floor with kids or pets around

Frequently asked questions

Will my projector fit the tray?

The tray is sized for most compact and mid-size home projectors. Measure your projector's footprint against the tray dimensions on the listing, since very large units overhang.

Does it have a standard tripod screw?

Most projectors have a 1/4 inch threaded mount on the bottom. Check whether your unit does, since securing it to the tray is safer than just resting it there.

Can I use it for a laptop instead?

Yes. The flat tray works for a laptop, a small speaker or a DJ controller, which is why people keep it after movie season.

How stable is it on carpet?

Carpet actually helps, since the feet sink in slightly. On hard floors, spread the legs to their full width and route the power cable away from the walkway.
