I purchased 2. I use one like a shelf for storing papers and the other one to elevate my monitor several inches off the desk freeing up valuable space.
The stand servers it's purpose. The customer service delivery and follow-up were the worst ever. If I could eliminate STAPLES from this planet I WOULD!
I purchased this shelf to raise my monitor up to eye level and to give me space under the monitor for items I reach for all the time such as paper pens calculator.
I needed the extra space. I have two printers a copy machine and a laptop plus my a desktop in my small l home office. I can put the laptop under my desktop monitor and paper under all the others or supplies. Four are legal size and one holding a printer sits on a two drawer plastic file cabinet! Sturdy but I like the holes otherwise it would be too heavy.
