It seems pretty sturdy I would say no problem for what it made for I think it said up to 18lb

The keyboard tray is very sturdy and, the desk as a whole, is great. Just make sure you get the caps on the end of the tray on or you will get cut. I spend many hours each day at it and love it.

The slide mechanisism is not as smooth as it could be, but overall the tray works well and is more than strong enough to support a keyboard and a mouse in use.

Keyboard tray is smooth and solid. Finally I have a good computer desk. and despite the reviews, it's easy to put together.

I have not used it for a keyboard tray but it looks like it would work fine.

Probably so....if you could get the desk delivered in one piece! I had two of these delivered and both were damaged on arrival. After the second I gave up. This is a very heavy piece of furniture though so it would probably hold the keyboard tray with no problem.

This is just an opinion, not a definite answer. I see no need to assemble the keyboard tray for stability since it is not attached directly to any support bars. The tray could be left unattached but the bars do glide easily. I would leave tray off if desired. We are very pleased with this desk, assembly and quality.

Nope - this is pretty sturdy. I use it as a platform for paperwork next to the standup desk i bought that holds 2 mojitos & a keyboard.

To date, the keyboard has remained attached to the rest of the case. I take to work every day and it's exposed a great deal of use. I hope this helps.

also, I used the existing keyboard tray instead of the plastic one supplied - ya it's a little wobbley, but acceptable. Didn't have to buy a new desk, so it was very cost effective for us

Its like an actual laptop keyboard. So I would say its more a durable plastic.

It's quite stable. I bought it when I got a much heavier keyboard than I previously had, and it supports the weight well.

The Tray will support up to 30 LBS. It should hold up to most any laptop or tray of food.

yes its a nice wide tray plenty of room. its very sturdy and I highly recommend it. I have been really happy with it and use it in our office over 40hrs a week. this is top quality and not a cheesy flimsy key board tray. It has been holding up really well in our construction office! Thats saying someting ;-)

Not really. The material isn't very durable either. The case didn't even last a year. We had to replace ours with a different case. We liked the keyboard though.

Yes...it is very stable. I too have been known to hit the keyboard a tad to hard and have never had a problem with it.

the whole desk is sturdy....could hold normal elbow weight or the weight of arms resting at the keyboard when typing. a heavy book would be okay.

When you put the desk together you could skip the step where you install the keyboard tray. It will probably not been quite as strong as it provides part of the tying together of all three sides.

It's pretty sturdy. You can use a laptop with no worries. I wouldn't put 100 lbs on it, but it's not fragile
