VIVO Large Under Desk 27 x 11 Keyboard and Mouse Tray - Space Saving

In this review of the VIVO large under desk keyboard tray, the bottom line is simple: this is a practical, space-saving solution for anyone who needs a dedicated keyboard and mouse surface without losing desktop real estate. The tray's swinging design and 12-step height adjustment make it a solid choice for home offices, standing desks, and compact workstations where ergonomics matter. Assembly is straightforward and the tray feels well built, so the main reason to buy is the blend of reliable construction and flexible positioning for improved typing posture.

Key Features

• Under-desk mounting: Frees up desktop space by storing a keyboard and mouse on a 26.8 x 11 in platform mounted beneath the desk surface.
• Swing design: The tray moves forward and backward across an 8.6 in range with a total swing of 165 degrees to help find a comfortable typing angle without tools.
• Height adjustment: A 12-step locking system lets you set the distance from the desktop between 2.2 and 6.5 in for better ergonomic posture and to fit thicker desktops.
• Weight capacity: The unit weighs about 9 lbs and supports up to 11 lbs, providing a sturdy platform for full-size keyboards and a mouse.
• Easy installation: Mounting hardware is included and the tray installs under desks with a minimum recommended thickness of 0.75 in and requires 4 in of clearance under the surface.

Who It's For

This tray is best for remote workers, students, and small-office users who want to reclaim desktop space while keeping a full-size keyboard and mouse readily accessible. It is also a good match for users of standing desks who need an under-mounted solution that adjusts in height and extension.

It may be less suitable for people who plan to place very heavy accessories on the tray or who cannot provide the required 4 in clearance under the desk; also, some users reported mixed experiences with how smoothly the tray slides during adjustments, so those who need instant, frictionless repositioning may want to try one in person first.
