Is anyone using this with a glass desk? Maybe with rubber between the metal and desk?

I'm not sure using this with glass would be a good idea, even on thick glass with two monitors it is pretty heavy. Unless the desk has a metal bar within depth of the clamp to take the weight then i wouldn't try it.

Yes, I have both pieces. And you are correct. The chair will not slide under the desk. But it is fine for working, writing etc. it may not fit well in a toght space.

I put this pad on a Pottery Barn glass top desk and it has not been an issue. Not sure if that helps but that's my only experience.

If you put blocks of wood between the glass and clamp it might work. But I wouldn't think that this stand should be on a glass desk. I would look for something else.

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.

The hutch sits on top of the desk with nothing attaching them. so you can lift it straight off. i don't think the glass would be a problem at all. very nice desk and hutch i use it as my main working desk.

It does not work well on a glass top table. I had to use paper as a mouse pad when working on a glass top.

I have mine set up with my keyboard on top of the desk and have no problems. The edges aren't Sharp at all.

Hello Paul, My experience with desk thickness is that should be fine. I operate a business and have bought dozens of various mounts. I clamped this one to a plate glass desktop (very thin) and a very thick desk top. The key to securing firmly is having enough lip for the clamp to slide unto and get a good grip. Some desks have no lip and some not very deep. If not a deep lip, the issue of course is not the top, but the underneath clamp or the knob. The knob may be to close to a side panel to turn. I some cases, I have trimmed down the knob to get closer. Which then requires using a tool to turn and get tight. But that has worked a number of times. I also have secured this mount through desktop by drilling when no lip. This is a fine mount for the price. Very sturdy. Best of Luck.

Nope. My desk is MDF from IKEA. So long as it is at least an inch thick, you'll be fine.

The best solution I have found is to epoxy two metal plates to the underside of the desk and then use sheet metal screws to attach the keyboard tray to the metal plates. A standard wood desktop is 3/4", but particle board may vary and is not a reliable material for trays of this style.

Hello Valisk,I would say you can mount this to a glass desk, but I would recommend you place a piece of wood between the bottom of the desk and the clamp for stability. Thank you for your question. Taylor W.VIVO

you will be able tosee what happens is the mount doesnt hang behind the desk its inward. infact if you look at it from the top down at no point does the edges, other than the part attached to the actual desk, hanging over the desk.you should be fine.

The glass is thick tempered glass, I haven't stood on it or anything but I'm confident that it will hold just about anything you want to place on it. It's a great desk expecially for the price I would totally get another if the time ever required it. You will be very pleased with it

I do and it works just fine. Just be aware that you are using a glass top..

I use mine on a glass table ("Studio Designs 13220") that I covered with an Alvin Translucent Cutting Mat. I had to be a little creative with the installation, because the instructions have you drill down into what would have been glass. I made it work by putting the cable holders vertically along the front and back of the metal desk frame, attaching them with pop rivets. It works great.

I am not 100% sure but, from the picture I saw online when I did a search, is that it looks similar to desks we have, but ours are silver/grey with clear or frosted glass. The suction cups fit into the holes of the desktop braces nicely and hold the glass in place. I hope this helps. If you don't have holes in the braces, then I don't think they would work.
