A pricey, but solid keyboard tray with adjustable tilt
By Derek G
Like other reviewers have mentioned, you must check the dimensions before buying this item as it is very long. You will need 25 inches to mount the glide track under your desk properly. As long as you meet this requirement you'll also be able to hide your keyboard under your desk. The keyboard platform can slide in and out of the track as needed and comes with a thick layer of heavy grease to allow it to slide back and forth easily. It takes a little effort to push down the tray and hold it under the desk long enough for it to slide underneath. It also takes some effort to use the tilt slider to tilt the keyboard up and down. Most people should be able to handle this but seniors with weakness or arthritis may struggle with it.I trust the judgment of Fellowes for the positioning, but the tilt of the keyboard takes a little adjustment as it seems to tilt the keyboard slightly upward even at it's zero setting. It gives the impression that you are reaching down to type. Southpaws will be happy to know the circular mouse platform will mount on either side of the platform. It's a nice feature as I like being able to switch sides with my mouse to help reduce the chances of carpal tunnel. The mouse platform can also be removed entirely if you are unable to meet the width requirements. You will need 29 inches of total width to fit both the keyboard and mouse platform underneath your desk. In addition, keep in mind you will need about 23 inches of width from the left edge of where the glide track is mounted to the right edge of the mouse platform (and vice-versa). If you have cabinets, a desk leg, or a computer near your planned mounting space you will need to keep this in mind.My only gripe is with the keyboard platform which is, in my opinion, too small for today's larger keyboards. I own an old Microsoft Internet Keyboard with a few multimedia and Internet buttons at the top which fits fine in the keyboard tray, however larger, ergonomic keyboards like the Microsoft Natural or Logitech Wave don't fit as well. As an example, I have a Microsoft Wireless 6000 which is too wide to fit comfortably on the tray. I will need to remove one of the two guide tracks for the mouse pad at which point it will hang off the edge slightly. This is a disappointment to me as I figure people who buy this item are concerned about ergonomics and may likely have one of these larger keyboards. For this reason I'm knocking off a star. Just keep in mind you will likely have problems if you have a keyboard longer than 12 inches or wider than 18-1/2 inches. A keyboard no longer than nine inches is ideal.Most desks built today seem stuck in the last century so a good, ergonomic keyboard tray is a must. As long as you meet these dimensional requirements, both for the guide track and the keyboard, you will have a solid, well-built keyboard tray that I expect will last you many years.

Sturdy Keyboard Tray
By midnight821
The Fellowes Professional Executive Adjustable Tray is my third keyboard tray (that has not come pre-installed) and my second from Fellowes. Installation was fairly quick and simple. The instructions were easy to follow and in total I spent a little over twenty minutes getting it up and ready to use. Having an extra set of hands for placement will be beneficial, but not required.The unit is fairly heavy and built with quality in mind. I've had other units that are flimsy and bend/flex with little weight or pressure applied to them. The main arm/support is impressive and the executive tray is sturdy and built to last. Also impressive is the ease of adjusting, as it glided smoothly. The one minor complaint I have is that the area for the keyboard is a bit small. It fit my keyboard well, but will little room to spare. Also, the mouse area was a little small for my tastes, as I tend to use a large mouse pad.Overall, you cannot beat the quality built into this unit. With the minor complaints aside, I have not used or seen a better keyboard tray. Highly recommended.

Easy to install but not easy to use
By TheProf
I needed to get my keyboard off my desk and this seemed to be a good solution. It was very easy to install if you have a drill. The instructions were easy enough to follow and I was able to install it in about a 1/2 hour.Using it proved a little harder. The quality is decent but it was difficult to pull out and push back in. I suppose a little grease will help but the mouse pad doesn't fold up as neatly as pictured. Another aspect I disliked was that in order to use it (as a corner tray) you have to pull it out quite far. This put me very far away from my computer monitor and hindered more than helped.The wrist rest is comfortable and it is quite steady when you type on it. Even the mouse tray is steady and has a rim so the mouse won't slide off the side.Overall, I don't recommend it simply for the price. You can get $100 trays that are just as good.
