Exactly what I was looking for.
February 24, 2016
Easy to set up. This conversion kit worked well with my monitor and keyboard, and it's light enough that I can take it off my desk if I want to sit while I write.My only issue was with Amazon's shipping. The kit comes in two boxes for a monitor stand and a keyboard stand. Amazon sent me the monitor stand only. I called Uncaged Ergonomics and they sent me the rest of the order direct from their warehouse. So, if you're interested in this conversion kit, I would suggest you order it direct from Uncaged.
Works perfect for my needs.
February 16, 2016
Saving my back using this. I set the monitor up once and left it. I placed the keyboard stand, off in a corner and grab it as I need it. With a wireless keyboard and mouse it's super easy to transition and I just tilt the monitor for standing or sitting position.
Great product!
September 24, 2015
I work on the computer all day and need to stand sometimes. This works great. It is so easy to change from sitting and standing. It takes a little bit of time to set the adjustments for the correct height but once it is set, it works so well. I just leave both on my desk at all times. When I am standing, the monitor goes on the monitor stand and the keyboard on the keyboard stand. When I want to sit down, I just move the monitor to the keyboard stand and place my keyboard on the tray under my desk. My desk is 2 feet deep. The smaller stand does slide under the larger stand so I have enough room for both and also have some storage space under the stands. I type all day as a transcriptionist and the stand is very sturdy with no movement at all, once I figured out to spread the legs out so they are a little wider at the base.
Great, In-expensive Stand Up Desk!
September 14, 2015
I love this! I've had several back surgeries and by allowing me to have this on my desk, without replacing my desk, is great! The only problem I have with it, is the place for the mouse; my mouse tends to slide off.
It is true that it not super sturdy.
August 4, 2014
It is true that it not super sturdy...but it works perfectly for my needs. I use it with my macbook pro, mac keyboard, mac trackpad and I use my magic mouse on the mouse pad. perfect solution for me. I am 5'10' and had to fiddle around to get the best configuration to make the screen as close to eye level as possible...it didn't quite make it but it is very close. I do not think very tall people could use this though at eye level...
Does exactly what I needed
May 12, 2014
I wanted a way to set up a standing option for my laptop that I can use as an alternative to buying a standing desk. I have a regular desk and set this up next to my 'sitting' monitor so I can stand for a while and then sit for a while. I read other comments complaining that you can't easily take this up and down, which is true. You need to figure out how to adjust it to your ideal standing configuration and not expect to quickly move it to alternative configurations. I wasn't expecting it to expand and collapse like a hydraulic desk would so this worked just as I expected and still gave me a very flexible configuration for my standing alternative. Alternatives that can adjust at a touch would cost a lot more, this works just fine when used the way I'm using it. And I didn't want to buy a whole new desk, just add something to the top of my existing desk.I also see complaints about the mouse pad, which I'm not using at all. It now comes with a better mousepad than the original one that other commentors are complaining about. My favorite way to use it is to put the laptop on the top stand and use the bottom stand for my mouse (just put the mouse on the bottom stand, where the keyboard could go). It doesn't seem flimsy to me, nor am I seeing any wobbling. I could also put a monitor on the top unit and a keyboard on the bottom, but haven't done so because it's working fine for me as-is.Update:After using this a bit more I have some additional information to provide. I kept reading that it was wobbly and wasn't having that problem. When I decided to change the way I had it set up I realized that it is possible to get it into some wobbly configurations, since each leg is endlessly adjustable. The key is to keep the bottom two legs pretty close together for stability then use the top leg for height. Or reverse the bottom leg so it points backward. Anyway it you have to play around with the configuration to be sure you end up with a stable arrangement, which you can test by trying to wiggle it around before actually putting a computer on it. That means even more than before that this is a 'set it and forget it' device, not something you will constantly keep changing. That is the way I intended to use it, so that's fine for my purposes, but you need to be aware of that.

Just what I ordered
April 2, 2017
This desk is great for those times when I need to stand and work at my laptop. It is lightweight on fits perfectly on my computer desk. I like that it can be adjusted to different heights for other locations.
An affordable solution!
January 30, 2017
Another great solution for a stand up desk. I love the height adjustments and it does keep things sturdy. It will slide around on polished surfaces, but I found putting a mat down lessens that. I stand up when I work, and this is the perfect height for my kitchen counter.
It is what I hoped it would be
December 7, 2015
Haven't used it much yet, but I like that the legs are adjustable and can go high enough for reading from a book or Kindle. And the table top swivels so you can tilt it toward you. There is a piece to flip up so whatever is on the table does not fall off if you tilt it, and it has a little well in it in which you could put a couple pens or styluses. It might be a little delicate; if I traveled with it, I would wrap it carefully.
Works great on my reclining chair
May 11, 2015
I use this while I am seated on my large recliner chair. It fits perfectly. I did tilt it and I had a problem with the mouse being susceptible to gravity. So, I used my electric glue gun to glue on a piece of clear acrylic as barrier. My mouse pad doesn't move at all.It folds up easily. Sometime soon, I will improve it, by making a pouch on the bottom of it to hold my mouse and glue down the mouse pad.
A Must for Frequent Travelers
March 9, 2015
 I travel a lot for work, so I really enjoy this desk. It fits in my overhead bag and I bring it on all trips with me. Study and easy to use.
An excellent purchase - easy to use, lightweight, and flexible!
August 23, 2014
A few months ago I purchased the larger model - the Executive Stand Steady desk and I have been amazed at what a difference it has made. My doctor told me about the research reports that sitting for extended periods can lead to many serious health issues, including osteoporosis and heart disease, but I couldn't imagine how I could get all my work done if I didn't sit at my desk all day. Then I tried the Stand Steady - it's just what the doctor ordered! Even though I am a senior citizen, I had no trouble adapting to the prolonged standing position - it is actually much more comfortable than sitting. However, I often need to work on my computer while on travel so I really missed being able to stand up while typing and Internet browsing. Then I discovered the traveler stand-up desk. Not only does it fit easily in my suitcase, but it is very lightweight and easy to fold up and then re-open. But what I like best about it, is that it has an extra feature I don't have on the larger model - I can rotate the desk from 0 to 45 degrees to make it easier to tilt the screen for different lighting and other room conditions. I would highly recommend this model to anyone who needs to move around frequently - if you have just a small laptop, and don't need a large desk area, you might want to consider using it as your daily desktop - it's very comfortable and flexible.

Excellent standing desk alternative
July 17, 2015
This is a wonderful alternative for those who want a standing work-space but can't shell out $$$$ for a fancy desk. The product comes in two pieces: my 13" Macbook sits on the larger piece, and my favorite Anker wireless keyboard and Logitech M570 Wireless Trackball mouse on the smaller piece. 4 stars because the adjustment process is a little finicky, not the smoothest or most intuitive, but once you get the hang of it, it does the job - and for the price, it's worth it. I recently transported the set from home to my office - it's light weight and easy to carry. Will probably buy a second set for the home office as well.
Works well for what I need
May 6, 2014
I bought this because I'm just starting my career and I'm trying to prevent health issues from sitting at a computer all day. I was unsure about this product for a couple of reasons. First, I was worried because my monitor is just under the weight limit for the stand. Second, I'm pretty tall so I wasn't sure if the stand was going to be tall enough. For the most part, the product works as designed. I can go from standing to sitting (and vice versa) in about a minute... but not by adjusting the stands. As far as I can tell, there's no way to adjust the stand while the monitor is on it. So I simply move the keyboard and mouse stand to the side and then move my monitor onto my desk. This works well for me because my desk is actually comprised of 3 tables so I'm able to leave the monitor and keyboard stand in the full upright position and just move them back onto the table behind my main desk. The monitor stand does seem a little flimsy but it hasn't fallen. I wouldn't recommend using this if your monitor exceeds the weight they recommend. As for the height, it's almost but not quite where it should be (top of monitor at eye level). I'm 5'10" and I have the stand all the way up the highest it can go. I wouldn't mind it being taller, but my desk also seems short to me, so if I had a taller desk it would be even better. I would love to be able to afford an actual stand sit desk (like you see in doctor's offices) but I also didn't have $1000 to drop on one of those. This product was considerably cheaper but still worth the price in my opinion.
easily adjustable but flimsy keyboard stand
April 21, 2014
I found the Workez Standing Desk to be easy to put together and easily adjustable. While the monitor piece is sturdy, I found the keyboard piece to be a bit flimsy. It moves around even when I type gently. It is an improvement to my DIY stand-up desk. Sitting all day and standing all day are both bad for ones back, so the option of switching from sitting to standing is perfect.
possible improvements to product
April 4, 2014
product keyboard sits on needs a skid resistant product adhered to the legs to prevent slippage on desk.mouse stand needs a brace from bottom center to the leg of the keyboard stand, for better support of the mouse.
Great Customer Service
January 9, 2014
I was having a challenge with the monitor table and reached customer service by email. John returned my call and has been above and beyond in customer service. He's sending me another monitor table with ratcheted leg adjustments which are slightly different than the one I have -- It was awesome to stand and not be confined to sitting. He even suggested that I invest in a high chair or stool so I could relax when needed but not have to be fully seated. I am so grateful. Thank you John!
It does what it says!!!!
November 20, 2013
I had back surgery early in the year and then a freak accident falling down the stairs a month later. I went in to check with my doctor earlier this month and apparently my desk job was adding insult to injury so she suggested I take more breaks to walk around and be more on my feet. Well I did as told and ended up getting in trouble for it at work.Long story short after not wanting to compromise my back with my job this was the best solution for me.I now stand all day at work and my back has had a ton of relief.After shopping around this is the most cost effective desk riser that doesnt put a hole in your pocket and it is probably one of the most wise investments I have made.Its a clean cut design that I got in black so it doesnt look silly.The only thing I just wish I could alter is place the mouse part of it higher because thats just my personal preference since if its attached to the leg and i alter the keyboard then the mouse is place in a super awkward position.The keyboard part allows for some room to write n a notepad. Overall I would definitely recommend anyone get this for if you want to stand at work.

Almost perfect
April 18, 2017
While the desk works great and is lightweight (so it can be moved from room to room) it can be tricky to adjust. I did have to place padding between my laptop (or keyboard) and the desk to muffle the sound whenever I type. Otherwise I would have given it five stars.
Perfect for the price and mobility.
May 17, 2016
I love being able to stand at my desk. After looking at several options, I landed on the Stand Steady Traveler because of the price and ability to quickly move it from my desk to storage. Like others, I've had to come up with my own solution to the lack of traction on the stand's feet and purchased no-slip furniture rubber pads to stick on the bottom - works perfect. May have had to go out of the way to get them, but it wasn't something that bothered me. The desk does shake a little when you type, especially if you're a fast typer, but it's nothing that interferes with your work. There's a little storage compartment for a pen that I think is unnecessary, especially if your computer is big enough that, when on the desk, it covers up the compartment. I've had several co-workers ask to try the desk out for themselves and they've loved how easy it is to set up, raise/lower the height, and store. I would definitely buy this again.
Brittle Plastic Pieces Don't Last -- but Stand Steady Responded Quickly.
July 16, 2015
It's lovely and perfect, just the kind of thing I was looking for, but one of the tabs that braces the length of the legs snapped off on the very first day! I don't mind the light aluminum, but for $60, I would think it would at least not break so quickly._________________Follow on: I contacted the seller and they were very responsive. Thumbs up for customer service and adding a star.
Works well with some adjustments
May 14, 2015
I'm pretty happy with this stand - it's perfect to get started easily with a stand up desk. It does slide around a bit, so I'm using the non-slide stickers and that works well. Also note that if you have a key board with a number pad you won't have room for your mouse so you'll need to set that up beside it. Overall working great and I feel better already standing more this week!
Good, inexpensive stand-up desk
February 22, 2015
Exactly what I was hoping for. The product is inexpensive and is works well. A couple of items to be aware of: 1) I have a 13" MacBook Pro, and would not recommend using this with a larger computer; because the cup holder is quite small, and completely functional but not flush so it takes up some of the space; and, finally, is a little troubling that the desk seems wobbly, but no the extent that it interferes with work. For the traveler: I am considering taking the desk with me on my next extended trip, since it folds completely flat. Great all-around, and would recommend for a first ("I want to try out this whole standing desk deal") standing desk.
Great for elevating monitor
September 2, 2014
I use it for eye level with my monitor when standing and it when I am typing on my angled keyboard and it is the right height and strong enough to hold up my 23", 20 lb. monitor. It has a cup holder and looks like a pencil storage holder too. The height can be adjusted at the legs. Tis is perfect for people who like to stand or tall people sitting down.

Definitely within budget!
July 7, 2017
Definitely within budget, has helped with my shoulder pain I was having with the regular sit-down- desk. Although, at first it wasn't as easily adjustable as the directions made it seem I got the hang of it and I'm recommending this product to some coworkers.
Sturdy but Not Smooth
October 3, 2016
I don't think I read the description closely enough - each angle/crook in the legs can be adjusted, but it needs to be adjusted one at a time. On each joint there is a compass where you can read the degrees and make sure each side aligns, but I'm stuck with this since my job paid for it.Pros:-sturdy-aluminum which disperses heat-holes for a laptop fanCons:-stiff-not easily adjustable.
One time conversion
September 6, 2016
This product is good for a ONE-TIME conversion from sitting to standing. The adjustable arms are difficult to manipulate if you wanted to switch back and forth more than once a day. (or week for that matter) In order to do so, you need to adjust 12 different settings. Once it was set up, it is fine.
For the price, this is a reasonable solution for a standing desk with a laptop
June 18, 2016
The keyboard stand is wobbly and the clip-on mouse pad addition functions, but could be designed better for stability. I do like the built in fan and extra USB ports, and the height is comfortable with me being 6'1" and using with a laptop. It takes some work getting the legs extended just right, so don't plan for this to be a quick-change going from sitting to standing position. For the price, this is a reasonable solution for a standing desk.
Does the job if you want a fixed height standing desk
March 18, 2015
The word "Adjustable Sit Stand" in the product title may create the impression that you can adjust if from sitting to standing "on the fly", this is absolutely not the case. You have to take everything off of the component and turn it alternately on each side to be able to adjust it.That said, for the price it does the job. I liked the one I bought for work enough that I bought one for home as well.Getting it to the height you want can take a degree in trigonometry, but they have instructions for some standard setting that worked for me.
It does the job....
January 5, 2014
This stand certainly does what it is suppose to do. I like it a lot. However, it has a few flaws: 1) It can be wobbly at times; 2) From time to time, your mouse will fall off the attached mouse pad (especially if you are a fast typer); and 3) You will be a bunch of comments from your co-workers about your "new set-up." I like the fact that I know don't always find myself sitting. I think it is healthier standing up. I use a second monitor, a wireless mouse, and a wireless keyboard so that I can also sit down and type, too.

Flimsy
September 18, 2015
I bought this stand up desk to use in the office, so I could easily pop up and down, using the standing desk for my wireless keyboard and touch pad. It was the right height for me. While I understand it needs to be light to work well as a literal traveling desk, it is very flimsy. The metal table part bounces up and down as I type on my keyboard and press on the touch pad. Perhaps it would work better with a heavier laptop, but for my purpose it's not that great. I rattle as I type.Also, the feet are hard plastic, and since it is so light, it slides around on the deck. I had to attach little rubber feet to keep it from moving. I will keep this because it's better than the cardboard box I was using, but honestly, not all that much better.
Flimsy, way overpriced
September 1, 2015
It does what it's supposed to do, but it's flimsy and cheaply made. There are plastic parts at key places, which contributes to its lack of stability. Of particular note is its high price. I was willing to give it a shot at $50, and while I feel that I paid about $20 too much, since it did serve my needs, I was willing to keep it. But I was surprised when it arrived: I was expecting better quality materials for that price. I now see that it's priced at $70, which is, plainly stated, a ripoff. If money is no object and you don't mind overpaying, this will likely do the trick (if you don't mind the constant movement while you're trying to type). But if you have any sense of value, find something else.
Not very stable, coarse adjustments
August 27, 2015
It's OK for web surfing. But when I start typing, the table shakes noticeably - I can't stand writing more than one sentence at a time. Also, the tilt angle adjustment is very coarse: at one click away from flat, the mouse slides off the table. The table surface is shiny enough that an optical mouse doesn't work very well.
Great for travelers - just a bit too small for me
August 15, 2015
Great idea. Just not wide enough for me. I use a wireless mouse with my laptop (hate the tiny touchpad area) and the surface isn't wide enough to accommodate. I did like the locking cam action adjusters. Also, it was generally pretty stable when using. The best feature was that it folded up nicely and fit in suitcase without taking up too much space. So, if you travel a lot, you might enjoy this.
They are not as sturdy as we would have hoped considering the price
May 19, 2015
Ordered these for our office, and the work for standing desks. They are not as sturdy as we would have hoped considering the price.
the good and bad
September 24, 2014
Smaller than I thought. I had to put rubber bands on the feet to keep it from sliding on my desk.I like that it can tilt and be raised or lowered.

January 18, 2017
The product is what is advertised however changing positions for this product is an absolute nightmare. It's easier to just pick up and move the monitor it's self. I would not advise anyone to make Height adjustments while the monitor is on the desk, risk of a pinched finger, bumped head or broken monitor.Key board stand...same deal.Mouse pad attachment was sturdy.Once you found the right position I never moved it unless I reeeeaallly needed to because it's a hassle.

May 31, 2016
I was so excite to get this. I read that it was a bit flimsy but nevertheless - if it gave me the option of fairly easily lifting my monitor up so I could stand, then it would be fine. I opened it enthusiastically and was happy to see there was really nothing to put together - I just had to get the right adjustments. This is when I realized it was a complete bust. Although you can get it to the adjustment you want, to make the next change, you will have to completely take your monitor off (monitor must weigh less tahb 13 pounds) and use both hands to make awkward adjustments pushing 2 buttons at the same time, then pushing 2 other buttons to level it off. I tned to be optimistic about these things and I really gave it a good effort but if you're looking to use this to stand after sitting - then be prepared to take several awkward minutes for each adjustment. I suppose if its left in place the same time - it's OK but easier to just put your monitor off and on a box. I'm sending mine back today
Mousepad becomes useless very quickly.
October 28, 2015
For the price, the mousepad should remain usable for longer than a month. It bends down if you put any weight on it, like a hand. The screw that holds the mousepad to the leg strips out quickly. I chose this more expensive model for the mousepad feature, and would not recommend it to anyone else that is looking for that. Lacking welding experience or a small scaffold, I have come up with this solution, which I have to replace every week or so.
but certainly not a great job. If you just have a laptop
February 2, 2015
Just ok, they're very simple pieces and can do the job, but certainly not a great job. If you just have a laptop, obviously you only need the bigger one. This is just ok... adjusting the stands is really awkward and it took me a while to get them to the perfect height. I'm not an engineer, but I know that these are of a sub-par design. Also not great is the weight balance. I have a fairly large keyboard and the weight of it tips the stand forward causing it to fall frequently. If you have a very light, small keyboard, maybe it'd be better. Again though, the design could be improved to handle a disbursement of weight.In the end, I'm planning to return this.
No EZ from this Work EZ...
January 15, 2015
No EZ from this Work EZ... save the time and money on this one. This is a really poorly designed item. Positioning of standing desk requires simultaneous adjustments of legs on both sides by pressing on buttons located on each 'joint' of the leg. However, because the legs are made of a light-weight, cheap plastic - there is no momentum to cause the legs to 'fall open' when you release the hinges. So you are required to manually hinge open each and every section of the legs - one side at a time - which causes the display to be lop sided. Too much time and effort to get the contraption to align.In addition, opening and closing the legs requires you to work the buttons from the outside in, or inside out - depending if you are trying to open or close it. This is not something you will be able to move around or take with you despite of its portable design.ADDENDUM: Also, please note that the seller will NOT provide a return label so you will eat the cost of return shipping. Not cool!!
Not for daily use
March 31, 2014
It does not operate as advertised. It is very difficult to adjust in use so you can't simply go from a sitting desk to a standing desk.

Flimsy but functional
December 5, 2015
Debating about whether to keep it. Which it felt more solid. Wouldn't leave my laptop on it unattended; a strong vibration might cause laptop to slide off. Would be nice if there were some edging all around the desktop. There is a "pop-up" edge on one side that I mistook at first for a pen/pencil holder. You open the edge to keep your computer from sliding if you tilt the tray.As others have noted, the feet are slippery, too.$70 seem like a lot for this, but I'm not trying to spend hundreds of dollars either.
Cheaply made
September 26, 2015
It serves the function, but it seems made of cheap materials thst easily scratch and may break. Given the price of the item, consider looking at other options. For those of us who travel, I am not confident that this portable desk will withstand the use.
Too flimsy and not stable
September 15, 2015
Had it for 6 months; now one of the legs came off. And can't put it back it...The table is too flimsy and not stable at times. The desk area is very small only fitting a notebook, nothing else...I doubt if it would be feasible to pack in your back with a laptop and be good to go...
Flimsy, wobbly and slidey, oh my!
July 10, 2015
Man was I disappointed when I took this thing out of the box. I thought I won a prize from the gum-ball machine - this things is so flimsy. And how much did I pay for this???I searched high and low to find a keyboard riser that would accommodate a treadmill desk. I will applaud this stand's ability to rise to the height I needed but every push on the keyboard buttons sends this thing into a wobble, it's support system is highly disappointing. Lightweight and strong are two completely different terms when applied to this one.I'm not crazy about the color scheme either with the orange latches/buttons and white joining pieces - who has a creamsicle colored desk??? Again though, it's the only thing I could find that met the height and width requirement for my desk.Also, there is no reliable resistance on the feet to keep the stand secured on top of a desk. It slides like there are a couples sticks of butter on those legs. I'll have to invest in some adhesive rubber pads.
Wobbly
June 24, 2015
Very wobbly. I expected much better quality for the price.
Disappointing Quality
November 19, 2014
Disappointing product quality. Certainly light-weight, but also seems cheaply made and not "steady"---but instead quite wobbly. As noted by someone else, the plastic feet tend to glide across a flat surface It just arrived and I am going to immediately return it.

March 10, 2016
This item is described as easily adjustable from sitting to standing positions and everything in between. It's just plain not. The hinges do not readily push in to adjust. Adjusting both sides simultaneously using two hands/arms is impossible because both hands are needed to just get one side to move. It doesn't sit flat while each side is being adjusted. Monitor or keyboard needs to be removed and re placed for each adjustment, etc. Could be OK to permanently set monitor and keyboard in new position,but that's about it.
Too unstable for standing desk / monitor stand in professional setting.
March 7, 2016
I received the product Sunday. I tried it and sent it back Monday.The stand did not meet my needs to serve as a standing desk in my office on a cubicle surface.I found the stand is unstable when holding only a 7.48 pound HP ProDisplay 21.5" flat screen monitor.I would consider this stand for use in bed as shown in the product information...but that is likely it.I will be checking out other options (i.e. VariDesk) in the $300 - $400 price range with heft...meaning steel.I have learned, yet again, you get what you pay for.At least I am only out the shipping charges.
Really wanted this to work....
December 3, 2015
I wanted so much for this to work so I could avoid buying one of the expensive options. I could write a long review, but I will cut to the chase:1. It is not set up at all for switching back and forth between sitting and standing. Once you set this baby up, you are leaving it because you cannot take back down without removing the monitor and it is not a quick process.2. The keyboard stand wobbles and lifts up and down when you type. This is the worst things about the product.3. The mouse tray bends down to the side when you use it.UPDATE: the mouse holder has slowly bent over to the side and is now near worthless. What a piece of junk!
Flimsy, not worth it...
September 9, 2015
Don't bother... The mouse pad holder is so flimsy, it's already bent after 10 uses, rendering it useless to me.The entire keyboard unit is flimsy and unstable. I'm not a large, strong person, I'm 120lbs! So disappointed by this waste of my money. (update to original post where I called it 'not super sturdy'. I regret not sending it back.)*measure the depth of your desk before you buy! My monitor, when using this for my desktop, is too close to me. I can only use one piece of the two. I wish I would have better prepared and purchased just one of the stands.I also find it to be...not flimsy, but not super sturdy. And if anyone has suggestions how to make the adjustments easier, please respond.I'm debating spending the $24 to return it.
Well made product, very inconvenient to use
June 5, 2014
I got it for a small computer table that my assistant use and wants to work standing up sometimes. However, after all done, it is very hard to take it out in order to sit down again. You need another person to help you shlep this thing around and 3 hands to adjust it properly. I plan to return it - useless unless you plant it in a fixed position to stay and not adjust it anymore.
Fragile, unstable, mouse pad bends after a few weeks of use
April 15, 2014
This is an update to my original review. After a couple of months of use, the keyboard stand is wearing out, jiggling around, bending and the mouse pad attachment requires nearly constant tightening and adjustment. It's just too flimsy to use day after day. If you put any weight at all on the mouse pad (like a hand), it bends and moves. I'm trying to figure out how to rig up a support for the mouse pad or switch to something else that can handle the weight of my normal sized human hand.In retrospect, this product was probably not worth the $145. With the additional support I had to add and the flimsy keyboard/mouse pad set up it wasn't worth it. I would have been better off going with a more expensive, stable model.Unless you are going to use this just occasionally or are using a <13 pound laptop without a mouse, go after a more expensive model.If you intend on using this as your work desk with a keyboard with daily use, skip it.-----------------------------------I purchased this as a less expensive way to convert to a standing desk at work. I wanted to give standing at work a try but didn't want to invest $400 to $700 on other set ups I saw.I did take for granted that my monitor would weigh 13 pounds or less, I incorrectly assumed this would be a standard weight. We have what I assume to be pretty normal sized monitors with stands, not huge by any means. After I set it up I quickly realized my monitor and stand weighed more than the stand could handle. My local IT guy was easily able to rig up an additional support beam that let it safely handle my company's standard monitor with stand.Other than the weight limit, it was easy to set up and the handy numbers on the joints ( I think one is degrees and the other radians) made it easy to adjust.I think other reviews mentioned this, but the mouse pad piece does seem small and oddly thin, it works but it feels a little fragile.This is a good value compared to other models, the only negatives were the low weight limit and the mouse pad holder. The manufacturer may want to consider putting out a model with higher weight limits and perhaps a larger/more solid mouse pad addition.

The desk was perfect for me - lightweight
November 27, 2015
The desk was perfect for me - lightweight, fit into a larger suitcase for travel, adjustable height. Unfortunately, after just a few months, one of the legs would no longer extend, rendering it essentially useless for me.

I was trying to contact the seller directly to provide this feedback but was unable to locate the link in order to do so. We've had this stand for about two months; Today was the first time I attempted to shorten the stand legs. Only one leg's mechanism works, making it only possible to use at the highest height. Had I noticed this in the first 30 days I would have returned for a replacement.
Dude, No.

Just delivered today. This thing is a joke, right? I can't believe I paid $70 for this piece of plastic. Wobbly as hell--I feel like I'm getting motion sickness. Can't even support the weight of my hands. Who are these people leaving 5-star reviews on this thing? Seriously, who are you? Do you actually exist? I'm perplexed.Anyway, thanks for listening--I'm returning this piece of garbage tomorrow at the crack of dawn. I'm honestly embarrassed. I'm gonna go for a walk.
You'll LOVE HATING this standing desk!
September 22, 2015
This standing desk is advertised as lightweight and DEAR GOD is it lightweight! So lightweight you'll enjoy the experience of chasing it around your desk while you type and your laptop shakes uncontrollably.So lightweight, one drop and this sucker's a goner! Don't dare fold the legs in, unless you prefer your standing desk broken.Also I'm really enjoying the vintage look - scratches galore! I think I sneaked one by them, people pay extra for that I'm sure.And I LOOOOVE that it wasn't shipped in a box, just the box it comes in. SUCH QUALITY!I mean if you're in the market to grossly overspend on a zero quality, this desk is for you!And as long as you're overpaying, go for that one-day shipping and you can be annoyed 24 hours sooner!

I received my stand up desk today and was immediately struck by the flimsiness of the product. The entire desk shakes when used as a laptop stand (placed on top of another desk) and, as another reviewer mentioned, the desk slides across flat surfaces unless placed on non-slide pads or otherwise backstopped. When I attempted to adjust the height, the orange tab snapped off entirely, rendering the desk virtually un-adjustable. I will most certainly be returning this POS.

I returned this. It is very flimsy and didn't work properly - the buttons to adjust the legs kept getting stuck. I found something else that's much better - Furinno Laptop Stand came in as a replacement last week, and I'll keep that one.
