I'm planning to put my monitors on a platform and tuck keyboard under, what is the maximum height of keyboard (with tabs up ofcourse)? Thanks!

With all the tabs up its a hair over 1.75" tall to the top of the keycaps in the function row (tallest point of keyboard). Tabs down it is 1.5" tall to the top of the keycaps on the function row. It is a fairly tall keyboard but angled well, most people don't actually use the tabs that own this keyboard.

U shld B able to obtain the specs on line. My recollection is that the height is 6 or 7 inches. Nice and high. You can see from the photo that there is plenty of room underneath for your keyboard to stick out, if the 18 inches is a bit too long. You just angle it, move it under, and straighten it back out. My keyboard is 18 inches. I slot my laptop underneath, closed, using an HDMI cable, and the whole setup works like a desktop, with my monitor on top. When I want to eat and need room, I angle my keyboard and shift it underneath, on top of my laptop. Great product!

The shelf under the keyboard does not seem to move-looks like it is permanent. Your monitor will definitely fit-the top shelf is adjustable and you can put it at the upper level, no problem

I think the correct answer is "maybe"... but it would be touch-and-go, depending on the weight of the monitor. I have an Apple Thunderbolt 27" display, and the "secondary" height adjustment spring, which allows you to fine-tune the height of the monitor, isn't strong enough to hold the display up off the keyboard arm reliably. For me, that's OK, resting on the keyboard arm (upper part of the L, not down on the keyboard itself) is just about the right height sitting or standing. However, if you care to have that secondary adjustment, I think a monitor as heavy or heavier than the Apple Thunderbolt 27" is going to be an issue.Good luck.

There are no feet per se. The underside rear of the keyboard has a base that runs the length of the keyboard. The base props up the back of the keyboard about a half-inch so it cannot lay totally flat.

About 6.5" inch, I have a small keyboard & it fit okay & &#65279;the mouse next to it. I really like this desk cause it solid & look good. &#65279;the back of &#65279;the desk have a gap that you could put a dual monitor mount, & have more space to work. I hope my info was helpful.

Because the tower of my computer is taller than some, I had to move the shelf under the keyboard up about 2 inches. I left the shelf in for more stability but I suppose it could be left out. The top of the computer table to the bottom of the shelf above it measures 25 1/2 inches. You should be able to put a 19 inch tall monitor in that space.

Frances,I'm glad you reported this. I watched the demo video on Ergotron's website and noticed the platform on which the keyboard rests does not provide the same level of solid surface area a regular desktop does. I would consider myself someone who types with normal pressure but any movement of the keyboard would take some adjustment.

In the standing position, the keyboard is on the same surface as the monitors. I thought the same as you, that the keyboard would be way too high, but it actually is quite comfortable. Both keyboard and mouse work well in the standing position. I purchased a wireless mouse and keyboard so I could easily move them when raising and lowering the desk. This desk is very sturdy, so I'm sure you could easily mount a keyboard tray if you wanted. But I would try as is first and see if it works for you. Hope this helps.

The bars that go on the floor are 17 1/8 inches long. The top bars that the keyboard sits on are 13 1/8 inches long and line up with the end of the floor bars vertically on one end. Depending on the keyboard you are putting on it, there is probably going to be some over hang, possibly 2 inches. If you are putting this against the wall, you are probably going to want to allow about 19 inches sticking out. I don't use mine in the house, so this is an estimate.

Hi, Ralph. The legs or side pieces can be adjusted to be either 6 or 9 inches apart, so if I understand you correctly, the stand would not be wide enough for you to slide the keyboard under the crossbar. In addition, the crossbar only sits about 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch above the tabletop, so you probably wouldn't have enough clearance. Hope this helps.

An approximately ~20" wide desk should be enough to accommodate the monitor stand & keyboard tray. Note that in this setup, the Keyboard tray is more narrow than the monitor stand. Hence, the keyboard tray can tuck under the monitor stand making things even more compact.

I'm not sure the exact measurement. My keyboard slides under easily with some room to spare.

Hi Patricia. Sorry it took me awhile to respond. Anyway, each individual platform will raise your monitor about two inches. But since they're stackable you can raise your monitor as high as you need to (in increments of 2"). Each platform in the stack is very stable because the one on the top sort of interlocks over the one below. Very nice solution for raising your monitor.

18" keyboard will not fit underneath. Rough measurement is 17". I believe max clearance height is 4'. Hope this helps.

I haven't tried that---hopefully someone will and share their results. In the meantime, it's worth noting that purchasing an adjustable bench can help you achieve a comfortable keyboard height relative to your seat height. At least this is how I managw, because the minimum height of this keyboard-stand is far too high for any other chair in my room.

The inside dimension accross (top) is really less than 17 inches;I use the stand for my flat panel monitor solely.Underneath the width accross is about 20 3/4 inches for my standard keyboard (18").The right side is for my standard mouse.I have been very satisfied with the stand;easy to assemble in just a few minutes.I truly hope this info help you.
