Kantek Extra Wide Single Level Height-Adjustable Monitor/Laptop Stand, 20-Inch Wide x 13.25-Inch Deep x 3 to 6.5-Inch High, Black (MS500)

This stand is exactly what I needed for my gaming setup!!! Here was my predicament. I had recently purchased a bad arse Asus ROG gaming laptop. Like many gaming machines, it's BIG! I stream games so I move my laptop setup around between my office and bedroom for PC games, and my living room table for streaming console games. I'm really short on actual space, and I needed a laptop stand for 2 reasons. Firstly to lift my laptop off my desk and give some additional height so I can see better (it's also much better on my back higher) Secondly I wanted a stand so I could use the extra desk space underneath for hard drives and devices. After a bit of internet searching I realized that there really aren't any great stands marketed as adjustable and portable laptop stands that could fit my beast of a machine (my laptop is 17.3 inches and 8 1/2 lbs). Most laptoip stands were to small and flimsy for this behemoth. Then I stumbled upon the Kantek monitor stand! This stand is almost perfect!!! My Asus Rog fits on it perfectly! No overhang!! It's uber sturdy (No chance of it collapsing or falling over) It's adjustable so No matter which desk or table I am at I can add and remove height!! The only thing which isn't perfect is it's a bit narrow so my Razor BlackWidow keyboard will not fit under it. This suited my needs perfectly though as any wider and it wouldn't have been able to fit in on my tiny desk. If you have more space and want to be able to fit your keyboard under your stand I recomend going for the wide version of this stand http://www.amazon.com/Kantek-Single-Adjustable-Monitor-MS500/dp/B008HPSZPC/ref=pd_sim_op_1?ie=UTF8&refRID=1J7NE911XR2DTBE4HHKX If you are looking for a laptop stand large enough for your machine get this!!

I just received and set up my monitor stand. It allows for a wide variety of installation configurations - which is good because I completely misjudged how high I wanted to raise the monitor. If you use it full blast (both shelves, drawer and all the optional legs) your monitor will be raised at least a good six inches - which is higher than you think so measure carefully.Two things attracted me to this model: #1 in the reviews some of the other models were noted for sagging in the middle but not this one (it doesn't appear that it will sag but it is too early to be sure, of course); and #2 - that little built in drawer. I am desperate for more drawer space so that one feature sold me. However, to use the drawer even without the second shelf already raised my monitor too high to be comfortable. So what I ended up doing is using the smallest section (one shelf plus the short legs) for my monitor. That raised my monitor about an inch to an inch and a half - perfect for my tri-focaled eyes! And I used the second section with the drawer and higher legs to put next to my monitor to hold the modem, DVD player, etc. A great solution for me and it looks neat. It is very easy to assemble and also very easy to try various configurations until you get what you want. I would completely recommend it unless all you are looking for is one little piece to raise your monitor about an inch. In that case you might want a simpler model. But if you want options to see what best fits your visual field and how you hold your head, you will get a lot of variety with this product.It is very nice looking too - black plastic that matches my monitor and CPU.

I got a nice new flat screen tv but it sat kind of low on the tv stand that I had. Also, since I live in an apartment and the wall the tv is on is a shared wall, I did not want a wall mount for the tv because I didn't want to disturb the neighbors (I'm nice like that ). This was the perfect fix, I have a 47" widescreen and it fits perfectly. I have my dvd player and Roku underneath. It's plenty strong enough to support the weight of the tv. The legs come in sections so you can adjust the height to fit your needs. The leg sections fit together snuggly and one section has a rubberized, no-skid bottom that should be used as the bottom piece. When I first got the thing, I thought that it was sagging in the front and was worried about the tv falling, but when I looked more closely, I could see that the front edge does 2 things, it curves outward and the front curve part also angles down. Basically it forms an optical illusion and makes it look like it's sagging, but it is NOT, I got out my level and checked it in both directions (front to back and side to side) and it is not sagging. Even after having it for about 4 months now there is no visible sag, so I feel safe that the tv is on it. I believe that it was designed for old style computer monitors, so if it can handle the weight of one of those behemoths it can certainly handle the weight of my skinny tv.Pros: strong, sturdy, easy set up, adjustable hit, cheap but not cheaply madeCons: haven't found one yet
