Really good quality

I have a 50" wide x26.3" deep x 29.5" high curved front desk that needed a keyboard drawer that would fit under a 1.5" high x .5" deep frame running under the desktop, that varies from about 1.5" to 3" in from the outside edge because of the front desk curve. Taking some measurements, I knew I would have to use the maximum drop for the brackets to get under this frame, so no need to use the "smart fit" directions. First thing to note in assembling the keyboard tray is that the drawer sliders can be attached in only one orientation. Initially, not looking at the directions provided too closely, I lined up a slider and it looked like it was the wrong size as screw hole distance on the tray didn't match the distance for the holes in the brackets on the slider. Tried other side, same thing. Looked at pic in directions and watched online video of assembly and realized the sliders do fit. Take one slider and try on both sides, flipping until you get the orientation right. They will fit. Used middle bottom hole of long side of bracket to attach screw. Once assembled, had the desk upside down and placed the tray on the underside of the desk where I wanted it (short side of brackets screw into desk and long side of bracket hangs down as I was using maximum drop for the keyboard). Marked screw holes, pre-drilled holes and then screwed on. Front brackets were placed flush with the 1.5" frame that I had to get under. See attached pics. I have a K800 keyboard and there is about a 5/8" clearance between it and the 1.5" frame I had to get under (see pics). Keyboard is 18" wide and the tray is 24" wide, leaving adequate room for a mouse (mouse pad included). Note, a bulkier mouse may hit the desk when you close the tray. However, I have my mouse on a small table flush to my keyboard tray and find it ergonomically more comfortable (see pics). Keyboard tray slides in and out smoothly and feels solid and supportive. Maximum bracket drop allows sufficient clearance for keyboard. Directions straight forward (watch the online video if you have trouble). No missing parts. Would buy again.

I'm a certified ergonomic specialist and although I have access to very expensive keyboard trays, I didn't want a permanent-mount tray. For this particular application, I needed a removable unit. After an hour of Amazon shopping, I realized this was what I was looking for. The tray is large enough for an ergo keyboard plus mouse (I even have a KVM switch glued down between the two). The installation is easy and after many months, never loosened. I ranked the sturdiness a 3 of 5 but considering the specific application, I can't imagine any other product being more sturdy. The 'height' is limited to 3 settings and although I prefer unspecified height adjustments, for a non-permanent-mount tray, I think the settings are sufficient. I'm very pleased with this purchase.

I don't usually write reviews, but this is a good product that I couldn't easily find. Other under desk mount types are very clunky and poorly made. The clamp style doesn't work for our desk set up. This is a sturdy under desk mount keyboard drawer that requires a #2 Phillips head screwdriver and either get self-tapping screws or a 1/8" drill bit to pre-drill holes using the supplied screws. It took me 30 minutes on desk 1, as needed to learn how to set the spacing. It took about 15 minutes on the second desk. If you have a screw gun and can drill a hole you can easily do this. We looked for weeks at multiple keyboards, all looked pretty bad. This Kensington model is well built, but not suitable for abuse/heavy use. We had the old Rubbermaid one similar one was discontinued; others looking similar are likely as flimsy as the old Rubbermaid model. This drawer slides even and smoothly with a soft "lock" when you push it in so it doesn't roll out. It looks good if you like black.

I have neck & shoulder problem due to years of long hours working in front of desktop computer. This keyboard drawer certainly will ease my stiff neck & shoulder problem.
