How it works

Kiosks and counters, step by step

  1. 01

    Pick portable or modular

    Portable counters pack into their own case; modular counters add locking storage and a sturdier top.

  2. 02

    Decide buy or rent

    One modular counter rents for $901.47 against $2,531.22 to buy (Plum Grove): buy if you exhibit often.

  3. 03

    Add a screen if you demo

    Monitor kiosks hold a screen and a backlit graphic at standing height.

  4. 04

    Check what is included

    Shipping cases and monitors are often priced separately.
