How long is this wrist rest? It is listed as 8.3 inches long but that can't be correct if it fits a standard keyboard.

Yeah that's wrong, it goes across the entire bottom side of my keyboard. It is well over a foot (whatever the length of your normal keyboard is). Good question!- MoistGamer

Hi. I had the same question! The box it's packaged in is about 8+ inches long. The wrist rest is almost 18" long. However, if you are a person of XXL size, the rest may prove a wee bit short. If you're average "normal" size, the rest should feel just right! I also bought the mouse pad wrist rest it's just perfect. I hope this helps.

It's 16.5 inches long and is just longer than a standard keyboard. When it's shipped, it's folded in half so they must mean the shipping length.

It is pretty long not long enough to have ur comp and keyboard not near each other I would guess 2 and a half feet long.

Keyboard is about 49.5 x 17.5 cm or 19.5" x 7" without the plastic wrist rest (which I recycled when I got it). Andrew Evenstar was very helpful in answering my own question about the Windows 8 compatibility, so I hope his info about the wrist rest is enough for you to gauge overall size.The keyboard stands up a bit, and also has attachments to tilt the keyboard if you wish.

I have the Microsoft Ergonomic keyboard and I can use it fine, but it does not quite fit. The two legs on the top hang off the top of the keyboard tray. This works for me as I just provide the tilt with the keyboard tray and the legs keep the keyboard firmly in place. In the center the keyboard tray is 7.5", but the top is an arc with the sides dropping to 6.5". The width works fine at a little over 19". Hope this helps you out.

Keyboard is indeed 12 5/8" inches long. One note, the keys on this keyboard though water resistant, also require a good deal of force to engage for typing. If you have a heavy hand when typing it won't be an issue.

Mine measures 12.5" on the long side. I had to go out to our donation pile to measure this because I finally got frustrated with the uneven touch of the various keys. I recently have replaced it with an HP USB keyboard, also from amazon.com but it is 14.75" wide.

The wrist rest itself is about seventeen inches long and the indentation is about nine inches long. I believe this is what you are asking.

Just measured. It's not 3 feet. It's 30 inches--so it should be 2.5 feet. I am 5.2 feet tall, and I can sit and work at this desk comfortably. My arms sit perfectly on the keyboard try.

You know what, I just measured mine just now at its thickest point near the rear end of the keyboard, and it only amounts to slightly under 2 and 3/4 inches. The 3.5" measurement seems a little high to me.

The keyboard is 30.5cm 16.3cm. I don't have a caliper for thickness but it looks about 1.2cm at the thickest it tapers toward the front. Cord length is 1.4m for the flexible part and about 1.5m all in. Also, I lost one of the adjustable feet already. I took the other off now as well. I must have put the keyboard away when the legs were still out. One snapped into place and the other must of snapped off. It sucks but hey, I'm not sure I needed them anyway. If you catch yourself putting the keyboard away without remembering to close the legs, I'd suggest you just remove them both. You're going to lose them anyway! The keyboard is 30.5cm 16.3cm.

You seem to be getting a variety of answers so let me clarify. If you remove the palm rest (it is designed to be easily removable), the keyboard frame extends 1 1/4 inches, exactly as Barbbara said, and tapers downward to an edge height of about 3/8". I too have been very pleased with this keyboard and would immediately buy another just like it if something happened to this one.

Actual inches I am unsure of. It has a nice reach though. Sorry I am not more help but I do love this keyboard and make sure you get the clear dust cover too.

1) The wrist pad can be removed by taking off screws at the bottom; 2) Do you mean the depth of the desk needed to put the mechanism of the keyboard tray? If so, the depth (from front to back) needs to be at least 17.1".

No It doesn't have a wrist rest. It is a very nice keyboard tray. I'm glad I bought it.

It's the same length as the stand itself, which is adjustable. I can be used for any size keyboard. For 88-key keyboards, I suggest adjusting to the maximum width for the most stability.

Sorry, I don't have one right now. I do ergonomics for the County and have purchased several for employees who have developed problems due to mousing. They are essentially the length of a standard keyboard. They take a little time to get used to (fast) but I have not heard any complaints so far.

If the wrist rest is installed, there is really only 11" before the pivot point, and that clearly wouldn't work. If the wrist rest is removed, there is 13" before the pivot, but netbook could hang a bit over the front and that certainly could work. I really like this keyboard tray - I think a better solution for the situation you describe is to have an external keyboard on the tray and your netbook on the desktop, which is a more comfortable way to work for others in my office in this situation. But a short answer of "yes" to the original question maybe all you were looking for. If the wrist rest is installed, there is really only 11" before the pivot point, and that clearly wouldn't work.
