The included keyboard relaxation is non-compulsory to put in, although the entire thing is designed to work collectively. It is a little bit annoying. I want you could possibly roll the tray into the riser to cover it, which might go a good distance in making the FlexFit look a little bit extra elegant, and might additionally assist with storage. You can also’t modify the peak of the tray, so whereas I did not have points typing on a keyboard, I discovered my wrist cramping up a little bit when utilizing my Apple Magic Trackpad as a result of it was a little bit too low. This might or is probably not a problem for you—I am 6’4″ and my limbs are weirdly proportioned.
The FlexFit desk converter ranges in top from 5.9 to 19.6 inches. That is a stable vary total (13 inches whole), and I did not have any bother utilizing the riser in a sitting place both. Crucially, my monitor has a height-adjustable stand, which helped me place it in order that my eyes all the time hit the highest of the display screen—that could be one thing to think about.
The gas-lift top adjustment lever is on the correct, and it strikes the desk easily up and down. Even when you pull it, the entire riser will not crash down—it is advisable put a little bit stress on the desk to have it slide. The entire thing feels sturdy with out a lot wobble.

It is a black laminate desktop and a black steel base, all of which is ok, however a little bit boring, particularly if in case you have a nice-looking desk. There is a groove on the desktop to route a number of cables by way of to cost gadgets. Staples features a few cable organizers within the field so you’ll be able to route issues neatly.
The FlexFit does the job—plop it on a floor, and you’ll convey your workstation up to make use of whereas standing, or down to make use of whereas sitting. Simply keep in mind that you should not be sitting all day, however you should not be standing the entire time both. Combine it up, and take frequent breaks with quick walks when you can.
There’s not a lot in the way in which of different options—it would be good if Staples had a monitor arm mount to pair with this riser to avoid wasting house. You could find cheaper converters from the likes of Flexispot, although I believe the FlexFit seems to be higher. Nonetheless, Department’s Desk Riser isn’t too far in price and kills it on aesthetics. Staples has a greater 5-year guarantee, although. If you wish to strive it earlier than committing, the return window is 14 days after receipt.
