How sturdy is the keyboard tray?

I feel like it's really sturdy. I have a very heavy desk mic stand on it most of the time, and it is very stable.

It is extremely sturdy. The assembly of this unit was a breeze for one person even though two people are reccomended. The fit and finish are top notch.

Yes...it is very stable. I too have been known to hit the keyboard a tad to hard and have never had a problem with it.

Depends how flimsy your desk is. My desk isn't real wood and this keyboard tray attached fine. I've been using it for at least a few years now with no harm to the desk.

This stand is very sturdy and I believe meant for even a professional keyboard! Hope this helps.

I'm sure it did, but I probably tossed it. It's a sturdy & stable piece, so I have no worries on it. Now if you're frequently assembling/taking-down still seems like it would take that beating & should last just fine. My only concern is that the keyboard just 'rests' on top. While there are some rubber/non-slip strips there, wished it was secured better. (maybe adding sticky backed velcro 'hook-loop')

The tray is pretty sturdy, but I'd think this is the type of question to ask of the manufacturer. Unless we'd tried it, how could we know? :)

Hi! The stand is quite sturdy. I've had no problems with it. I use it on my lap, and it's fine. The keyboard will fall off if you let the bottom fall down, etc., but if you're just sitting there typing, it stays in place.

It is very sturdy. I have even moved the table it was on while DJing with little to no sway. As for comfort it depends on the table you are setting it on. The angle it holds it at would put the keyboard of most laptops at an angle similar to a normal desktop keyboard propped up on it's back risers. I think it's fine.

The keyboard trays that screw on are the best. The very first time I installed this tray it worked great. I had to move it (that's why I didn't want the screw on keyboard). Since I've moved it the tray becomes loose and I can't tighten it completely. The nuts are plastic and I will have to replace them - that might solve my problem. For the money it is a good product. I don't feel this tray was intended for heavy use like a work environment.

The stand is sturdy. However, the key board only sits on the stand, it is not secured. It's all pretty heavy, though. I did knock the keyboard off once, only because I was trying to adjust the stand height while with the keyboard on it. I don't suggest that. If you need to move it or adjust it you have to take the keyboard off first. A lot of commotion, out of control kids and/or dogs could knock it over.

This stand is sturdy IF if fits your keyboard correctly. But I can't help you with that.

Yes and no: The desk is structurally sturdy, enough that the monitor doesn't move as I type, but my keyboard tray does not lock when pulled all the way out. I'm pretty sure it's supposed to, perhaps the parts don't quite fit together properly. So it's sturdy vertically, but not horizontally. Other than that, I really like it.

It's quite stable. I bought it when I got a much heavier keyboard than I previously had, and it supports the weight well.

Although I love the Winsome Cambridge Lap and Bed Desk as a "breakfast in bed" tray, I don't think it would be sturdy enough to support the weight and usage of a mounted keyboard tray. The main horizontal piece (the "table" part of it, if you will) is movable; it can be set at an angle and used to hold books for comfortable reading in bed. This piece of wood is approximately 1/3 - 1/2 inch thick, too thin I think to bolt anything to. Lastly, the legs of the table are rounded at the "feet", and if I have too much weight on the top of the tray, the whole unit starts to bow because the feet don't have a lot of grip to the surface the tray is sitting on (usually my bed). Hope this is helpful.

Not as is. You'll need to get a tray of some sort to support the weight. It's meant for another keyboard, but you could rig it for a laptop if needed

It "may" be sturdy enough, but since it folds in half there is a split in the middle that is slightly higher than the rest of the top's surface. This would make your keyboard wobble back and forth, so I wouldn't recommend this table for that purpose.

I hear the keyboard is fine. It takes a bit of getting used to as there's no curvature to the keys, but they're supposed to be firm and easy to press. Personally I'd appreciate it just because the solid backing makes it harder to ruin your computer with a spilled drink, and the recessed tray means your display doesn't rub against the keys when closed.
