Griffin 1092-XPRSD AirBase/Desktop Stand for Airport Express
The AirBase's industrial design merits more than being plugged into a wall socket and hidden away and makes an elegant artistic statement that compels you to display it on the desk, shelf or entertainment center. It offers some major functional benefits, as well. The Griffin AirBase increases effective range and signal efficiency for your network and AirTunes by raising the base station up into the room. It also makes it easier to check the network status light at a glance. Smart design includes built-in cable management, and a weighted, chrome metal base. Connecting printers, ethernet and your stereo is a snap.

Griffin 1092-XPRSD AirBase/Desktop Stand for Airport Express Reviews
Works perfectly, and made my desk more beautyfull It does what is supposed to do.
My aiport extreme base covers a wider range with steadier connect than without it. Setup in a minute, Looks good, too.
I wish it was easier to get than buying online, but oh well. Long cord so that the AE gets better reception at a higher level. Keeps it vertical. Great product.
Great product all around and offers more advantages than might be expected. It complements the Apple Airport Express, makes it stable on a desktop, allows cooling from all surfaces, and enhances placement in a room to optimize signal strength. This is a nice finishing touch to an elegant wireless base station.
In spite of the obvious need for and practical usefulness of the Airport Express, I really didn't like the way it just lay there on my desk and having to run an extension cord to it. In fact, it looked kind of sloppy and unfinished. Some home renovations made it necessary to move my network router and as a result, I needed to get an Airport Express.
And, it just didn't look right to me. Overall, the stand is a good looking and practical product; a product that I'm glad I purchased. I had seen the The Griffin 1092-XPRSD Desktop Stand in magazine ads and in those ads it made the Airport Express look a whole lot better; so, based only on that, I ordered a Griffin Stand from Amazon.com.
The Griffin stand comes with a proper electrical cord and I prefer a dedicated cord over an extension cord. The Stand also keeps the Airport Express from sliding on the desk (a bonus in itself) And, not the least of what makes it a great product, it does improve the overall appearance of the Airport Express as it "sits" (tall and proud) beside my iMac in the Griffin Desktop Stand.
