Black Clamp-on 27 x 11 in Keyboard Tray, MOUNT-KB05E

Pros: 1. Very study -- vigorous typing doesn't faze it. 2. My standard keyboard with number pad, etc., leaves plenty of room for my mouse. 3. My infrared mouse seems to work well directly on the unit's surface, which is a slightly roughened black plastic. When I had the mouse on my wooden desktop, it didn't work nearly as well -- had to use a mouse pad, which I no longer need. 4. Unit slides in and out smoothly. I was worried that it might slide too easily, but it seems to stay at whatever extended location I choose. in other word, moving it requires a bit of force -- a good thing. Cons 1. Clamps to your desk. This is easy, versatile, but not so great visually and if you do a lot of non-computer work (with the unit under the desk) you might find your arms contacting the clamps, which stick up nearly 1/4 inch above the desk top. The working space between these clamps is about 27 inches. 2. No height adjustment. It seems to be designed for a "standard" desk. It's perfect for me -- my legs fit under it easily and it's support surface is at the height of my chair's armrests. My wife's desk is lower and it definitely wouldn't work for her. Other comments 1. If your mouse and/or keyboard have cords, you'll probably want to route them somehow -- depending on where you're connecting. Prior to getting this unit, my cords went down the back of my desk and were out of the way. With the unit installed I needed to attach the cords to the underside of my desk to keep them from hanging down and getting tangled in my feet. 2. I'm hoping this will help mitigate "mouse shoulder", which was starting to bother me. (My wife points out that cutting back on video game play time might be even more effective. That will be my last resort.) So far, so good. Update after many years of use: Still working well. It did indeed cure my "mouse shoulder" problem. Two minor negatives: 1. The surface on which I rested my mouse eventually wore down to a very smooth and shiny finish, forcing me to add a mouse pad. Most of those barely fit next to a standard keyboard but I found something that works. 2. I would really like some way to lock it in the extended position. It extends and retracts so easily that I find myself having to keep pulling it back out, especially during gaming when I need it to be stationary.

My VIVO MOUNT-KB05E keyboard works great. The build quality is excellent. I didn't want to drill into my new desk, so this clamp-on solution is perfect for me. The clamps are low-profile (flat) on the top of the desk, and far enough wide apart so that they wouldn't get in my way much even if they were taller. A minor cosmetic issue: The flat keyboard tray itself comes in two pieces. The two pieces are easy to connect together using a screwdriver on the included brackets and the result is solid, but there is a visible line between the pieces. Not a big deal, but I wish it was a single piece tray shipped in a longer box to eliminate the line and to be less work for customers when building. Before I purchased, the product information warned that a full 12 inches of clearance is required under the desk. That's true in the tray's regular configuration, but in the instructions that came with my tray, it explains there are additional screw holes for an "extended" configuration where the tray sticks out a little (about an inch and a half) in front of the desk when the tray is fully closed. I use the extended configuration which was a relief because I knew my Branch brand Office Desk only had 11 inches of clearance under there and I was worried about the tray not fitting. The product information also warns not to use this tray with a beveled-edge desk. My desk has about a half-inch bevel, which works fine with the clamp pads for the VIVO tray, so that's another issue I was worried about that turned out to be fine. Any more than half an inch of bevel looks like it would start to cause problems because the clamps need enough flat desk to press against. On my desk the clamp pads are just at the edge of the half inch bevel so I lucked out.

This is a nice keyboard tray. There is a known issue of the tray walking away from you as you type. My fix was to purchase a Barrel Bolt Latch and mount it on each side to keep the tray from doing that. The extended pin prevents it from walking. Had this come with something like that, they'd have gotten five stars. The width accommodates my keyboard and my rollerball mouse, along with a wrist rest for each. My desk is a lesser cost up/down desk so I needed to take into consideration the measurement of the space allotment under the desk so it didn't interfere with the up/down drive pin. This works and I can move the keyboard at a whim, not locking me into a specific position at the desk. Value for the money I think is very fair. Drill accuracy was good, very easy to assemble. The ease of use is great. Put a lock mechanism into play on this and you have a great tray. I am very well pleased with this set-up. I don't need the tray to tip forward as the pad I have it on does this. I adjust the height of the desk for ccommodating my wrist/hand tilt. Ergonomic perfection? Nop[e. But it works for me.

I have been using this for several months now, and I absolutely love it! It puts my keyboard at the correct height ergonomically for me. And both my keyboard and mouse fit on the shelf. It was easy to put together and install. Highly recommend.

It's easy to put together, although the different screw types aren't labeled. Easy enough to figure out which is which using a little common sense. Easy to attach to my desk, and the clamps mean I can move it around or switch it to a different desk in the future if needed. I have a standing desk that raises and lowers so there's a bar/mechanical pieces underneath but this still has plenty of room of to attach.

Summary: This is a great keyboard. It arrived on time and was well packaged. It's easy to assemble and clamp onto your desktop. The instructions are clear, the parts are solid -- real metal hardware and no cheap plastic parts. It's steady when you type; no wobbling even if you type fast. The tray is wide enough and deep enough to store my giant ergonomic keyboard and my mouse with a bit of room to spare. And it glides smoothly to store underneath your desktop. Or at least it does now ... which brings me to the reason I was prompted to write a review. VIVO's customer service is outstanding! Quite possibly the best company I've dealt with online or off. My excellent experience with VIVO: After carefully assembling the keyboard tray and attaching it to my desktop, the clamp on the right side seemed slightly off. No matter what I tried -- re-assembling that side, adjusting the tension -- the position of the clamp put the keyboard tray in a little bit of a bind on one side. The tray still worked technically, but was annoying. One side would slide in easily and the other lagged behind and had to be pushed a bit. I contacted the company through Amazon and got an immediate response. Based on the images I sent (which focused on the misaligned part of the clamp, but didn't show the entire clamp) they thought the issue was the slider rail. They offered me the option of returning the entire keyboard or receiving a replacement slider rail. I didn't want to be without the keyboard tray, since it was making a big difference in my hands/wrists/arms, so I asked for a replacement slider, which they promptly sent (and which also arrived quickly and was very well packaged). In the process of putting the new replacement rail on, I realized the issue was definitely not the rail, but was most definitely the clamp. One of the two pre-drilled holes in the clamp was about 1/8 inch off, meaning the keyboard was still sticking on the right side even with the new sliding mechanism. I reached out to the company again about the misaligned holes (this time with an image that showed the entire clamp). They promptly supplied a replacement clamp, which fixed the issue completely. The entire process was fast. The emails were prompt, courteous, and clear. And VIVO was willing to keep at it until the issue was fixed. Highly recommend this product and company based on this interaction.

I purchased one of these during COVID when, like so many others, I went from being an office employee to a work-from-home remote employee. I need an under the desk keyboard tray for good ergonomics. This was easy to put together and easy to attache to the desk. The tray was easy to pull out from under the desk and slide it back when I was done. Only real issue is that it angles front-down when pulled out and rear-down when pushed back under. There is very little barrier in the back of the tray and sometimes the mouse would slide back and fall off the back of the tray onto the floor. I wish the barrier went all the way across the back. It worked well until recently - about 4 years after I purchased it (one year after the warranty) when one of the small side screws that attaches the tray to the arms that are attached to the desk would loosen over time and fall out. Then a small screw on the other side would do the same, and the tray would unexpectedly come loose and fall down. Sometimes I notice the screw on the floor and crawl underneath to screw it back in. Inconvenient at first, and then more and more of a nuisance when it started happening more frequently. Yesterday the entire thing came loose, and I discovered that there were three screws on the floor. There should have been four, but it looks like I did not notice when it fell out and probably vacuumed it up when cleaning. I am now shopping for a new under desk keyboard tray, and do not plan to purchase this one again. It was great for a while. Until it wasn't.

Wish I'd bought one of these years ago! My desk is now officially ergonomic. I work from home have a sit/ stand set up. When standing I put the wireless keyboard and mouse on top of the desk and now when sitting I use this tray. It is well made, simple to install and feels very sturdy. Extremely happy!

Tem o tamanho mínimo perfeito para mesas pequenas, os materiais são de alta qualidade, parece ser robusta e durável o suficiente justificando completamente o preço. Recomendado!

Bonjour, Le moins cher et pourtant excellent, la qualité de fabrication et bonne, ,robuste et pratique, je ne regrette pas cet achat.

Cumplió con mis expectativas. Se ve y se siente muy resistente. Muy fácil de instalar. Yo pedí el de 51 CM. Totalmente recomendable. Solo escojan bien su medida acordé al largo y profundidad que tengan disponible

I bought the 34 x 11 clamp on keyboard tray for a stand up desk that didn't come with a keyboard tray, it is extremely sturdy and easily installed. The only minor issue is that the plastic is very slippery and the keyboard tends to move, so I have ordered a large mouse pad for the tray.

Needed this for my 49 key MIDI keyboard and it's the perfect fit, except for the height which I bought the height extender from the same brand for. So happy!
