Can this be used with a 21" monitor, keyboard & mouse? Will weight of hand on mouse be a problem?

Yes it will be able to handle everything you asked about. very well made and sturdy.

It won't work for a monitor. I use it for a drawing tablet and a keyboard. Much more and it drops. I tried putting a 21" wacom tablet on there and sank.

I use it with my laptop so don't know about use with a monitor. I don't find the hand on mouse as a problem. Have to tighten a screw on the arm every once in a while so the tray doesn't slip down but that's not much of an issue.

Weight of your hand won't be a problem because you can adjust the resistance. Everything you listed will fit, but you might feel too close to the monitor when typing.

If you adjust the resistance you will be fine. I have been using a 27 in. Samsung SA300 flat screen on top of 3 computer books and a trackball for the last 10 months and I have been very happy with the setup.

Our employee uses it with a 21" monitor, keyboard and mouse and is very happy with it. At times she might like the monitor to be a little further away, but appreciates the ability to stand or sit when using her pc.

I believe 15 lbs is the limit. I use it with a laptop and my hands on it don't present a problem...there is a spring that can be tightened to adjust the resistance of it moving down.

Plenty sturdy for any monitor or other home computer equipment. I need to lean on mine to access my corner lamp and have never felt that it was any thing but solid. Now I would not stand or dance on the desk, but I feel secure leaning on its with my 200 lbs. Like someone else mentioned I would not put a lot of weight on the keyboard shelf, but if you don't lean on the drawer it will never warp. It is plenty strong for a keyboard and mouse.

Length wise I don`t think you will have a problem if you place them in a V configuration. My only concern is how deep the base of your monitors are? You may not have enough useable work space when you consider your mouse and key board.

I would be hesitant to try this for two reasons. One, I don't see there being enough room to do this and leave reasonable space to navigate the mouse. The second, and maybe more important, I would not really "rest" my hand or wrist on this. I don't think it would bear any real weight at all without placing stress on the armature.

I have a Win 8 laptop and have used the mouse no problem - not sure the keyboard. Pretty sure you won't have a problem though!

I use my Varidesk Single for a 25 inch monitor & keyboard. To try to answer your question I set a 20 pound HP Touchsmart 320 PC on it, and it seems fine.The Varidesk is sturdy and easy to use. I love being able to stand and work at my computer ! Mary

Yes, you can use any third party monitor and keyboard/ mouse as long as they have hdmi for the monitor and either Bluetooth/usb for the keyboard & mouse. If they are new, they most likely will. This is a great inexpensive way to obtain a powerful mac computer at a fraction of the cost of an iMac.

I use my 17in laptop with a mouse on it. The tabs in front that hold the laptop in place could be a bit taller, but that has nothing to do with the width.

I don't think it would fit a keyboard and a mouse...we have a 17 inch laptop and it fits that w a tiny amount of room left over

I use a mouse exclusively with a 15" laptop. I just move my laptop to a slight angle to get more room. The desk is stable enough that it doesn't tilt when I do.

Mouse should fit no problem. Keyboard might fit depends on the size. I have a smaller keyboard which fits but I often use the laptop keyboard because of better comfort

My son is able to use a mouse in the 3 - 4" to the side of his laptop, if his laptop is slightly off the desk. I would not say it is comfortable though. I just use the mousepad for mine.

Kay, I have a 14" laptop. I could fit a mouse on the desk with it.I have posted some photos of my laptop and a mouse on the lap desk to give you a visual. Hope that helps!

Just went and measured. 21 looks to be about right. Incidentally, we have a 25" and 22" pair of monitors hooked up. Spring tensions was nowhere near strong enough out of the box to hold the weight, but it is adjustable with a screw on each arm, and it holds the weight just fine now.

I use Logitech wireless mouse and keyboard with this monitor and haven't seen a problem yet. Everything seems to be functioning perfectly.

Not really; it fits an 18-20" keyboard plus a mouse to the side. You need room to maneuver the mouse.

I wouldn't worry about a 21" desk. You won't be able to get your knees under it. I noticed 2 other responses. I have a pull-out tray at 26" with a wireless keyboard that I can move around. That works best for me.
