Is there an all around frame or raised border so that it could keep a plate from slipping off...i.e., is it all flat?

It is all flat but if you don't cross your legs I'm sure you can eat off of it

The surface is all flat except for the two "cupped" areas on each side of the handle. I would have zero problems putting a plate on it as long as there was a towel or napkin or something like that under it.

It is all flat. I gave it to my granddaughter but I think it had a pencil compartment at the top. She said she would use it also as a tray but I never asked if she did. Hope this is a help

I screwed mine into the wall behind my wall mounted TV to hide the Dish box and hide wires. It is flat on the bottom (about 3 inches wide) but if you put magazines in it I think it would fall over all the time, because there is no extended base or feet with which to balance the rack. I put 2 screws in the wall at the top and it holds my TV Dish box which is actually 6 inches taller and the same width as the rack, and it isnt light as magazines and it hasnt fallen off the wall yet!

We like ours. We have had no slippage whatsoever and my husband naps on it daily. Just be sure the frame you get has the metal keepers on the front which prevents slippage.

It is a rubber frame that goes around the plate, it is not covering your plate. However, in looking at the packaging, it does state the following. WARNING: Laws concerning the use of this product vary from state to state. Your state may prohibit its use on public roads or restrict its use to novelty plates, show-cars or off-road areas only. In some states, including without limitation California, off-road uses are also prohibited.

Nope - it's flat. The angles you see in the photo are simply to allow the plates to interlock. Be careful where you mount it as you'll have no control over the angle of view once mounted, so make sure you mount it level with your eye line. Very simply, useful mount, if your only need it so mount a monitor/TV in a static location.

Only the top where the screw holes are is flat. You could put adhesive tape along that part.

Uncertain. There is a back panel. My handyman put it up. He didn't say there was anything was missing. It feels secure.

Hello, the sides are curved but, not tilted so it protects anything from falling off. Hope this helps. Debbie

Yes, but very flimsy. I used clear glass plates that I bought at CostPlus and it holds them... But it is not stable.

Sometimes it will slip on the initial angle setup, however, when you set it on a table or anything flat, it stays upright.

No. It is mostly flat, but there is a slight edge to it, which is useful to keep whatever on the plate.

It really is meant to be mounted on a wall the flat plate which you would put something on is not totally flat it has a slight tilt. I hope this has been helpful.

Yes it does... the sides are not high, but it does keep things from sliding about.

no, frame is heavy and will move. Better to attach to a frame. Good quality and looks really nice and good for the price

There is a solid top that slides on and a grate with bars above that. You could leave the solid plate out. I'm going to try that out myself.

Yes there are no perimeter turnups, restraints, etc. You could put any shape on it as long as you keep the balance right.

Agree with the other poster that if you flatten it well it will just lay there. You could screw it down but that would create a trip hazard and not add value.
