It was good at first...

It became problematic when one of the clamps loosened. When one side dropped, the clasps holding the tray easily snapped. Now there is no way to repair this without replacing the entire tray. It is great if handled gingerly, but would not recommend this product to others if you are looking for a more durability.
This is a very nice built quality. And the concept is pretty good. But since this is hook and go type drawer, it is heavy to make sure to be able to hold up on ur desk. The parts are mostly metal, which makes it studier, but heavier. Will like to see smilar product but with lesser width.
I didn't want to drill holes into my new desk so this fit the bill perfectly. I did a "good", not "excellent" on appearance due to the black rubber anchors. I know there probably isn't a prettier option, since the achors are providing the support for the entire device. The rest of the keyboard is very nice looking. I did the Installation in less than 45 minutes. Follow the pictures and zap it's done!
Honestly this is very easy to assemble. The picture only procedure is quit clear. It took me about 1/2 hour to assembly and a few more to attach it to my desk. They provide cushion pads too which help stablilze the attaching bracket from sliding. The holding/sliding brackets are made of cast iron, this is not a flimsy product. I do recommend this to anyone who needs flexibility and desktop space. No attaching hardware to damage the desk top. Ergonomically well laid out.
Pros: Functionality, Quality Construction, design, stable, slides under desk/hide away
I would recommend this to a friend!

We greatly appreciate that you took the time to provide so much detail on your installation experience. We thank you for choosing Fellowes and for providing such a great review.
I work from home and use an antique drawing table as a desk, but it's too high for typing a long time. I was looking for something that attached without screws so that I wouldn't harm an antique, and this is just perfect. Good quality, sturdy, fits perfectly. Some reviews said it was too wide for a desk and I can see where that could be a problem, but it's exactly what I need for a table. Not a bad price either.
Desk Ready is perfect for our call center. Our agents move desks often and the portability of the drawer allows it to follow the rep to their next location without having to unscrew it from the desktop. We have several agents using them and they all concur it works like a charm.
Pros: Functionality, Quality Construction, design

What a perfect use for our DeskReady keyboard drawers! Thank you for the great review.
Have had a lot of trays over the years this is the nicest. LARGE. Fits key board and mouse great. If you have a giant ergo or gaming board check before buying this is an office rig. Adjustments for level and angle are easy to make. Long wrist pad all the way across very comfortable. Read other reviews that tray is bouncy. Yes a little it's 28+ inches long and not screwed into desk but held buy hand tightened angle brackets for regular typing it's fine if your a heavy key banger sure it's gona flex a little. Also the whole thing is just short of 33 1/2 inches long 14 inches from front to back of brackets make sure your desk/table can accommodate it.
