Wallbox Pedestal for EV Charger Review
The Wallbox Pedestal (Eiffel Basic Mono) is a durable, minimalist EV charger stand designed for Wallbox Pulsar Plus chargers. Ideal for indoor or outdoor use, it features a stable single-column design, integrated cable and connector storage, and easy installation—perfect for residential or light commercial EV charging setups.
This is our review of the Wallbox Pedestal for EV Chargers, specifically, the Eiffel Basic Mono Pedestal, a freestanding EV charger stand designed for single or dual installation of Wallbox Pulsar Plus chargers.
The Wallbox Pedestal is a sleek, well-engineered EV charger stand designed for both outdoor and indoor installations. Having used it to mount a Wallbox Pulsar Plus charger outdoors—and with hands-on experience with other EV charger pedestals—we confidently recommend the Eiffel Basic Mono Pedestal. Its rock-solid build, seamless compatibility (not only with Wallbox Pulsar Plus chargers but also with select other EV chargers), and modern aesthetics make it a standout choice.
Compared to other EV charger pedestals, assembly and installation are refreshingly simple. The Eiffel Basic Mono uses a single-column design, unlike models like the BMZX Tesla Charger Pedestal, which features dual columns that can make the setup more complicated. The single-column structure feels sturdy—especially when paired with the compact Pulsar Plus charger—and delivers a clean, minimalistic look that complements any space.
At first glance, the Eiffel Basic Mono Pedestal can easily be mistaken for the Autel Maxicharger Pedestal, as both share a very similar design. They feature the same chunky single-column structure and comparable dimensions, and neither includes a top cover. However, there are a few key differences that set them apart.
The most obvious is branding—the Autel pedestal has a large Autel logo on the vertical column, while the Eiffel Basic Mono Pedestal is unbranded, giving it a cleaner, more neutral look.
Another major difference lies in cable management. The Wallbox Pulsar Plus charger does not have an integrated cable and connector holster, so the Eiffel Basic Mono Pedestal includes an external cable and connector holder. On the other hand, the Autel Maxicharger has integrated cable management, so the Autel pedestal does not include an extra holder.
Aside from the logo and the cable holder, the two pedestals are nearly identical in appearance. Oh—and one more thing: the Eiffel Basic Mono Pedestal costs nearly twice as much as the Autel Maxicharger Pedestal.
So, who would buy the Wallbox Pedestal? Well ….
Pair it with the Perfect Charger
The Eiffel Basic Mono Pedestal is a great EV charger pedestal that can be used to install other EV chargers from different EV charger manufacturers – but based on our first-hand knowledge of purchasing and installing both Wallbox EV chargers and other brand EV chargers, the Wallbox pedestal shines when paired with a Wallbox Pulsar Plus EV charger.
The Wallbox pedestal was specifically made by Wallbox to be used in the installations of Wallbox Pulsar Plus EV chargers in areas where wall mounting was not possible such as driveways, carports, apartment or condo parking lots, and commercial parking spaces.
Compatible EV chargers include:
Wallbox Pulsar Plus 40A EV Charger
Ideal for most EV owners, this compact yet powerful charger delivers up to 9.6kW of charging speed. It’s perfect for daily use and integrates seamlessly with the Wallbox app for smart scheduling, energy monitoring, and remote control.
Wallbox Pulsar Plus 48A EV Charger
Need faster charging or planning for future EVs? Step up to the 48A model. With up to 11.5kW of power, it’s one of the fastest Level 2 home chargers available—great for large battery EVs or shared use in multi-EV households or commercial spots.
Both chargers fit perfectly onto the Eiffel Basic Mono Pedestal, making your setup not only functional but sleek and professional-looking. If you’re investing in a freestanding charger stand, it only makes sense to pair it with a high-performance Wallbox Pulsar Plus charger that matches in both quality and design.
Build Quality & Construction
The Eiffel Basic Mono Pedestal immediately stands out for its clean, minimalist design and high-quality construction. It’s clear there’s real engineering behind it—every component such as pre-drilled holes feels intentional, durable, and well-built.
The aluminum and stainless steel materials are sturdy yet lightweight, giving it that rare “premium EV charger installation gear” feel without being overdesigned. Even though it’s slim and compact, the pedestal doesn’t feel flimsy—it’s built for long-term durability.
The only area where form gives way to function is stability on asphalt. Because the base is relatively small, it doesn’t guarantee a solid hold when installed on softer or uneven surfaces. Wallbox recommends mounting the Eiffel base on a concrete foundation to ensure maximum stability and safety.
Storage & Accessories
The Eiffel Basic Mono Pedestal takes a modular and purpose-driven approach to EV charger mounting, cable management, and accessory integration, It features pre-drilled holes for EV charger mounting and a connector gun holster, located on the vertical column which is compact—ideal for smaller EV chargers like the Wallbox Pulsar Plus. However, this size and design may pose challenges when attempting to attach larger third-party accessories or retrofit additional components.
That said, the pedestal is compatible with a range of essential EV charging accessories, including:
- Cable Management & Connector Holster – Designed for Wallbox chargers, this attaches cleanly and adds practical utility.
- Top Cover – Helps protect the mounting interface and adds a finished look.
- Third-Party Mounting Plates – Allow for integration of other EV charger models or mounting systems.
- Dual Charger Configuration – With the right adapters and spacing, two compact chargers can be mounted on a single pedestal.
For enhanced protection and aesthetics, third-party add-ons like weather-resistant EV charger covers are also compatible. These optional extras not only improve the user experience but also help secure and prolong the life of your charger in exposed environments.
Once fully equipped, the Eiffel Basic Mono Pedestal delivers a clean, clutter-free setup without unnecessary bulk. Everything has its place—allowing for a professional, organized installation that’s easy to maintain and optimized for daily EV charging use.
Ease of Use
Where the Wallbox Pedestal truly excels is in its user-friendly design.
Thanks to its single-column structure, this pedestal is one of the most DIY-friendly EV charger mounts on the market today. The Wallbox Pedestal comes complete with all the necessary components for installation, making it a breeze for homeowners or professionals (certified EV charger installers and licensed electricians) to set up, especially in complicated EV charger installations such as integrations of smart EV charging accessories.
To install the hardwired EV charger to the Eiffel Basic Mono Pedestal, first, run the conductors from the main electrical panel to the concrete base where the Wallbox pedestal will be installed. Next, drill holes to secure the mounting plate and the mounting base. (The mounting base adds structural integrity to the pedestal and is notably absent in competing models.) Then, secure the base using anchor and ground bolts—one of which will serve as the grounding point. The conductors from the main panel should be routed inside the vertical support column to the top opening, where they will be connected to the EV charger terminal, as shown in the image below:

To install an electrical outlet for plug-in EV charging inside the pedestal which is the most secure position for an outlet, you will need to purchase the electric connections box and the front adapter plate separately that will be used to mount the NEMA 14-50 outlet for plug-in EV chargers such as Wallbox Pulsar Plus 40A EV Charger, the circuit wiring will remain 6 AWG copper wire, and the circuit breaker should be 50 amps as shown in the circuit wiring below:

The single-column design not only simplifies lifting and transport but also makes the setup process incredibly intuitive, there’s no need to spend time deciphering complex instructions—once you’ve assembled it once, you’ll find the process quick and straightforward every time.
In addition to the ease of assembly, the pedestal is equipped with a manual cable management system. The vertical column allows you to easily loop the EV charger cable around it, keeping things organized and free from tangles, this thoughtful design ensures the cable is neat and accessible while maintaining a clean look.
The pedestal also includes an integrated connector holster, providing a convenient storage space for the charging connector when not in use, this prevents the connector from getting dirty or damaged and helps maintain a clutter-free and professional setup.
Even though the pedestal features a beefy, robust column—sufficient to support a compact charger like the Wallbox Pulsar Plus—it doesn’t feel overbuilt or unwieldy, the stand feels solid and secure, offering peace of mind that your expensive EV charger will be safely mounted without any risk of tipping or instability.
