An elevating apparatus includes a platform plate that can be raised and lowered. Once the platform plate has risen, it is locked in place and capable of supporting a load. In some embodiments, the elevating apparatus incorporates four arms in a scissor configuration to support and stabilize the platform plate. In some embodiments, the elevating apparatus incorporates a gas cylinder assembly to apply an upward force on the platform plate so that it rises when released from the lowered position. In some embodiments, a cushioned surface is deployed on the platform plate and around the base so that when the elevating apparatus is in the compressed position, it resembles a cushioned mat.
