Simple Trending Monitor Stand with Drawer, 2-Tier Laptop Stand, Black

This product feels like the result of a company that listened to its customers. When it arrived, I thought it would be a "whatever" item. I unboxed it and found that it's all metal with bolts and screws. This unit is solid. It's supporting an LG Ultra Widescreen 34" (currently on sale!). There is a wide drawer that operates with ease. Above it is an open-access shelf. There are two double compartment pen (or whatever) holders that sit securely in place. They can be effortlessly removed as well. Overall, the opportunities for functional storage and organization are packed in. I was in no way compensated for this, I just needed something like this and the Simple Trending 2 Tier Metal Monitor Stand Monitor Riser came to impress. How can something so utilitarian be a source of admiration? Here we are. :) Solid purchase and I'm happy to put my name on recommending it to others.

This is an incredible stand. It was easy to assemble and came with a tool and the proper amount of screws. I like the white color as it goes with anything. The cutout designs on the side baskets are very attractive and add interest. It was one of the reasons I purchased this stand. I use the left basket for pens and notepads. The right basket has two segments, which are perfect to hold my 3 external hard drives. I put two in one side with a medicine bottle cap between them to give proper air circulation. The cutout design aids with this as well. These two things solved my overheating hard drive problem. The drawer is large and spacious, with 3 sections. The drawer slides out easily and is very handy for items I use often. I also like the middle shelf, which is perfect for my Bible and small meditation books. The quality is excellent. It is very sturdy, and there's plenty of room on the top to hold my monitor screen stand. I will purchase another one for my other desktop computer.

I have a rather large monitor for my PC. For years I had it sitting on a small cardboard box to bring it up to eye level, but was never really happy with the setup. Then I ran across this monitor stand while looking for something else. Then I ran across this stand and jumped on it. It is infinitely sturdier than that cardboard box, and provides a lot of storage space that I didn't have before. I have had mine for several months now, and have no complaints whatsoever. It brings my monitor up closer to eye level, and is infinitely more sturdy than my makeshift stand. It is well constructed, and shows the effort that went into the design, The drawer underneath the stand just slides in and out easily, and the extra level goves me more places to stick odds and ends that I like to keep handy. As far as I am concerned, one can't go wrong with this monitor stand.

I'd like to preface that there isn't a ton of options on Amazon when looking for a monitor riser that also provides storage. Here's my in-depth review on things I found interesting during assembly. Photos included! 1. Instruction Sheet: Could be better at material distinction, particularly Parts C & D. Aside from that, it's straightforward. No misspelling like others have mentioned, it looks like every other build sheet. 2. Screws: I noticed another reviewer mention annoyance between the screws offered which differ at the head. I understood what they meant literally speaking, but didn't fully grasp why this would be annoying until I did it myself. Included in the box is an allen wrench hex key. However, as shown in my photos, one of the screws required a screwdriver - which is not provided. I have one on hand but not sure why there was a difference...odd. First world problem, had to get up out of my seat and go to my tool box lol. Shame (jokes). 3. Back Panel: It's actually loose. That back panel is actually too small for the stand. Idk why they constructed this piece as so, but I found it weird. You can't do anything about it, it still sits in the designated slot but you can shake it if you find yourself at the back of the monitor stand which is unlikely. Still, not sure why it isn't a flush fit. 4. Side Panels: For my purpose I didn't want to use both side pockets so I simply didn't include the left panel. It is simply hooked on the side which I found odd because it is definitely not "secured in" by means of a fine fit or use of screws. However, putting things inside, and just by virtue of the side panel, it's not wobbly. I do enjoy the flexibility of including or removing as you see fit for your table. 5. Storage: Plenty! For whatever reason I thought the drawer provided in this stand would sit on a pulley like a typical house drawer. It doesn't, the drawer sits on your table and just slides in and out. Has 3 sectioned off areas. As shown in my photos, a variety of items can fit wherever you please. I actually don't have enough items so I added to it. I purchased this stand in case my set up changes in the future and requires more storage which this definitely works. Going back, I enjoy the flexibility of including/removing the side panels as you see fit. 6. Assembly: Took like 5 minutes lol. If you're not so saavy it may take you no more than 10 minutes. 7. Height: On even other products I saw people complain about the height of the stand with respect to a monitor on top. For me, I wanted my laptop to match the height of my monitor for ergonomic purposes. If you have a monitor, which likely has a small built-in stand, you for sure will be looking at some minor tilt up. Be cautious if you only want to raise your monitor slightly, then perhaps a 1 tier stand may be a better fit for you. I also have a standing desk so there's a plethora of ergonomic options for me with my given set up but to each their own. 8. Color/Material: There's only black, which I wanted white but I digress. If they had more than one color I'm sure this stand would be much more competitive than it's competition. I also didn't want a metal, grid like stand....but with the other options, this was my best shot for my preferences. 9. Price: In my eyes, I think the product is overpriced. I would lean more if it was closer to $20-25 range like most of it's competition. For a near $34 product, I want every part to fit flush together, and everything lay secured. For reasons above, this product does not meet those standards. Overall: 4/5 = back panel not fitting, side panels "secured" by simply hooking it onto the stand rather than being built in, "lack of tools provided/screw head inconsistency," and price. I enjoy it, there's not much variability on Amazon, and it's a straightforward product. There's not much room for creativity lol. If you need a stand and can afford this product, go for it versus the other alternatives.

Very happy with this stand. Use for laptop, rather than monitor. Corrals printer paper, pens, etc. and keeps desktop tidy. Easy to put together. Looks great. Fits neatly on desk. Strong and sturdy.

I bought 2 of these and both are amazing. Super easy to put together and use. These save so much space on the kids desk. This plus height adjustable desk is the perfect setup. They look great and accommodate all the clutter from the desktop. I highly recommend these.

Believe it or not I didn't purchase this for my desk, but rather because I needed something to organize the clutter on my nightstands. I'm the kind of person who believes that there's a place for everything and everything should be in its place. I also prefer everything within arms reach, especially once I settle into bed. This turned out to be the perfect solution. The size fit my nightstand so perfectly you'd think it was designed for it. It has plenty of room for pens, pencils and highlighters the attached side compartments. I use one side for that and the other for my remotes. The top shelf has enough room for a monitor, and the second shelf is ample for stationary or tablets. The bottom is a slide out draw with three compartments. Perfect for small staplers and post-it notes. Assembly was easy, taking about 5 minutes with simple to follow instructions. All hardware is included, including some extra screws and an extra suction cup. The organizer itself is well made, all the parts are metal so it should hold up till the test of time. It's also a very good looking organizer, not an eyesore like some of the others out there. Nice organizer, would recommend.

This works very well. I got two so that I can have my iMac and laptop next to each other. The organization is great and I’m looking forward to being able to use the stuff without having to dig all over to find it.

This has made my work area so much better. Strong, looks good, easy to assemble. With the holes in the top and sides, you can also add your own hangers, etc if you want or need to.

Does the jb, looks smart and provides space help keep your desktop cear

Well pleased with it. Left of the side panels as I don't need them.

Superb quality

Esta muy bonito y queda muy funcional, pero llegó muy golpeado de varias partes y lo tuve que devolver, no sé si es un tema del transporte que en el inter lo maltratan poniendo objetos pesados o no sé, por eso le pongo solo una estrella, pero el producto esta muy padre. Además de muy alto, por más que ajuste mi silla me quedó muy alto, pero soy pequeña mudo 1.55 entonces tal vez para alguien más alto queda perfecto...
