Is this sturdy enough/can it be positioned on a desk, so I can work standing, type on it, be the correct height and not worry about it falling?

I have not tried it in that position. Remember it is light weight aluminum and might not be as stable at a high position.

That wont be necessary, once you have accomplished the appropriate angles to create a sturdy stance nothing is going to fall.I stand all day but on occasion I sit. I simple bring my keyboard down to my desk and move my monitor to the keyboard tray which is perfect eye level for me I am 5'7.

It is sturdy, but it isn't a lap desk. A laptop would go on top and will sit 3-4 inches above a counter or desk. So, ergonomically, it isn't really comfortable for extended use. Without an external keyboard or mouse, the stand is more for display purposes than anything else.

It is surely strong/sturdy enough to place a TV on top o the stand as long as you fell the TV is secure and won't tip over???

My desk was definitely sturdy enough since I took care in putting it together. If you follow the instructions it will definitely survive an exited young guy. Good luck!

We used it as a conference table for about 4 months. Everyone brought their computers, materials, etc. and the table offered plenty of room to spread out and work. It is sturdy, so it doesn't wobble or tip. It is probably slightly shorter in height than the average desk but I spent years in college studying at the kitchen table-so I don't see it being an issue . Hope this helps.

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.

Rock solid for typing on for sure. Standing?? The device is desk mounted and has about 18 inches of vertical travel. I type and lean on it too! VERY Solid

My desk is only 20" deep so the Varidesk hangs over a bit on the front and the back. The design of the Varidesk works just fine with its weight evenly distributed. My desk, which is a "put together yourself" type supports the weight of my two monitors, keyboard and mouse just fine.

I find the stand to be very stable. Mine's on a computer desk which is located in an area where the desk gets bounced rather often & the shake of the monitor is very minimal. This stand wouldn't topple over. I find it stable even when tilt to adjust for viewing.

It is surprisingly sturdy and balanced, if it is an ink jet it might wobble when it is printing. It wouldn't fall over.I have a 3 year old visitor that uses it as a personal table and she hasn't had any issues with tipping.the base is really solid. I put a round placemat on it and if you put a printer on it, you might want to put one on it too.

No. not really using this desk as a stand up, and I got the 48 x 24. But it is very sturdy, It will not break unless you practice karate chops on it or if you sit on it and weigh +320 lbs. This is not press wood or thin bars. It will last you for a very log time. And if you are buying this for you son/daughter. As they grow up...You can raise the table to there height. So leaning on it, will not be an issue, IMO!

I'd be willing to try it and see. I'm sure a small to medium desktop would be fine. A really heavy desk top, I'd put directly on the floor. The bottom shelf sits on metal pegs that are pushed into the desk legs. It all seems pretty sturdy, but clearly it would depend on many variables.

I don't think it would be as stable. However, the legs are adjustable in height. I have it on the lowest setting and it's already higher than an average desk chair. The adjustments could take it up by another 4 inches, so would probably work fine.

Yes. You can also attach it to a board and then screw the board to the bottom of the desk top, but it will make the keyboard a bit lower - feet still go under??You can mount it out a bit too.

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.
