Can this desk hold up a keyboard tray (approx. 15-20 lb) attached to the underneath of the desk

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.

No. The top is hollow. When I got mine it had a huge hole in it from being crushed and Altra would not replace it.

I think it can...it seems pretty sturdy for something you assemble yourself... (my husband has loaded LOTS of weight on the top of it!) It is hollow construction, but I think it could support 25 lbs....not sure if you would have room for a chair though.

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.

With the keyboard tray retracted, the base is only 20" deep and 25" if you pull the tray out all the way. So the base will not need to hang off the back of your desk. The top itself is 25" deep and rests 4" deeper than the base in the low position. But it actually protrudes a couple of inches past the keyboard tray when upright. So I think it will work for you and if you're like me, you will find yourself standing half the day which has really helped my productivity. This is a great solution and the price is hundreds less than anything I've ever seen that accomplishes this function.

Yes. You can also attach it to a board and then screw the board to the bottom of the desk top, but it will make the keyboard a bit lower - feet still go under??You can mount it out a bit too.

Although I love the Winsome Cambridge Lap and Bed Desk as a "breakfast in bed" tray, I don't think it would be sturdy enough to support the weight and usage of a mounted keyboard tray. The main horizontal piece (the "table" part of it, if you will) is movable; it can be set at an angle and used to hold books for comfortable reading in bed. This piece of wood is approximately 1/3 - 1/2 inch thick, too thin I think to bolt anything to. Lastly, the legs of the table are rounded at the "feet", and if I have too much weight on the top of the tray, the whole unit starts to bow because the feet don't have a lot of grip to the surface the tray is sitting on (usually my bed). Hope this is helpful.

The slides themselves will as long as the piece of wood that you are using for the tray does. I re-used the original keyboard tray on my desk and these slides are very sturdy. I have some very large cats (2 of them push 20lbs and the other is 15) and have had two of them sit on the tray. No issues.

Most likely not. It can hold up to 70 pounds across the table, so it depends on how heavy it is. It's more of an office desk rather than a tv stand because of the keyboard tray, but I would recommend getting something wooden for a tv stand.

The bracket in which the tray slides back and forth is exactly 18" long. As long as you have the 18" behind 1.5" strip, to the back of the desk, it will work. The "arm" which comes down from the sliding bracket would reach below the strip and out towards you. Normally, one uses the keyboard below the surface level of the desk. The only impediment would be if you tried to raise the tray straight up level with the desk top. Then, it might not work.

As long as you have wide enough clearance for the keyboard tray and about 6" of clearance under the top.

That would depend on where you have it fastened. Mine is fastened to the desk top, and can be lowered a little bit lower than the desktop, but is not in a position where it could fit underneath it.

The desk top can hold 170 lbs. The top shelf holds 60 lbs, the middle shelf holds 60 lbs, and the bottom shelf holds 84 lbs. The keyboard pullout holds 25 lbs. http://i.imgur.com/9h7d1lc.jpg

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

This will hold a full heavy keyboard and is not flimsy so it should do the job.

There is a plate connector that fits under the desk and is screwed up into the desk. If your desk has a lip that extends down from the top, you will have to add a filler strip like a piece of plywood under the desk. It is pretty easy to attach. It is very solid and weighs more than other keyboard trays, but that is a big plus.

You can get away wihtout the keyboard tray for sure. But that bottom shelf is questionable. I assume you are going to put a computer on the right side of desk. If you pull to the left to move the desk, you make cause some damage.

I used it to hold a second keyboard. The legs are sturdy. I think there is a weight limit but check the manufacturer's specs before loading too much weight on it.

I do not use it for a keyboard tray, but it is fluid with the rest of the drawer bottom when folded down, so it appears it would function satisfactorily as a keyboard tray. This is a nicely built, attractive desk.
