Fellowes Office Suites Underdesk Keyboard Drawer, Black/Silver (9140305)

Things to consider
Great budget pieceThe main target for this product are1. Students, who have textbooks, pages, and notebooks on the desk, and2. People whose monitors / screens are pretty close to the edge of the desk and they could use a little room to lean back, get some distance from the screen, and type on the keyboard and fit something else in front of the monitor, like a snack, beverage, or what-not.This is made of plastic. The guides and connectors are metal, but the tray is not. If you are willing to spend more, you can get the whole thing out of metal, and I wouldn’t be as afraid of scratching or damaging it.It needs to come down lower. You’re going to want to find some wood spacers half inch to an inch if you want to use it without pulling it out all the way.It’s a little gummy at the end of the track when you pull it out all the way. This means that it is quiet, but it also means that it’s not very satisfying when you’ve pulled it out completely, and gets a little stuck there if you tug on it.If you already have a spacious desk space, I think you’ll end up using this like a little drawer, which is fine. It’s just more natural and convenient to have the keyboard on top of the desk most of the time. This just gives you a choice.The installation wasn’t too difficult for me because I put it on a standing desk, but if it is a cramped space underneath it, maybe it wouldn’t be as easy.

Fellowes really stands behind their brand!
I was looking for a keyboard drawer for my new sit/stand desk and did a lot of research. There are a lot of options out there with prices that range from $20 to $100. I was drawn to this keyboard drawer because of its small footprint. My new mobile desk is pretty narrow. I liked the pull out mouse pad that came with this drawer, since it allows me to set my keyboard and mouse at the same level. The fact the drawer is a Fellowes brand product was a bonus for me. I’ve used lots of their office supplies and computer accessories at work and I knew they had quality products. I was pleasantly surprised when I received the tray. It is really sturdy! Based on the low price, I expected it to feel cheap. It really doesn’t. The slides are on ball bearings and move easily. The little mouse tray can be easily moved to either side depending on whether you are a leftie or a righty. There was plenty of room for my keyboard, with an adjustable stop at the back of the drawer to hold it snuggly. Even though the installation instructions were clear and easy, I made a stupid decision to adjust the position of the drawer by removing two of the tiny mounting screws that hold the slides to the desk mounts. The weight of the drawer tweaked the left slide and broke it. AAAGGHH! I was so excited to use my new drawer. I couldn’t believe I wrecked it so quickly. I sent an email to Fellowes to see if I could buy a new slide. Unfortunately they don’t stock supplies for such a small item. Their customer service representative was so excellent though! She found me a slide and mailed it to me within days – even though it was my fault. They really stand behind their brand! I knew I couldn’t go wrong with Fellowes. I strongly recommend this drawer (and all of their products) for home or business use.

Took me over an hour to install but worth it.

Creo es la solución mas barata para colocar el teclado en el escritorio, digo… busqué y fue lo mas barato que encotnré, pero no por ser barato es malo, me pareció de buana calidad y fácil de instalar, veamos con el tiempo como va, pero me gustó, ahora mi escritorio se ve mas ordenado, lo volvería a comprar…..

Works great. Easy to install. On my desk I had to turn it upside down so I can accurately line it up correctly and screw it on to the underneath of the table. Well built solid construction. Would I buy this one again? YES.
