2 questions....can the shelf just under the keyboard tray be left off? Also, my monitor is 19 inches tall, will it fit under the top shelf?

Because the tower of my computer is taller than some, I had to move the shelf under the keyboard up about 2 inches. I left the shelf in for more stability but I suppose it could be left out. The top of the computer table to the bottom of the shelf above it measures 25 1/2 inches. You should be able to put a 19 inch tall monitor in that space.

The shelf under the keyboard does not seem to move-looks like it is permanent. Your monitor will definitely fit-the top shelf is adjustable and you can put it at the upper level, no problem

you could leave keyboard tray off and you can put up 24" tall monitor (tall not diagonal)

With my Veridesk fully raised I am Approx. 15" above the surface that the Veridesk is sitting on. I am afraid you would be looking downward to see your monitor let alone using your keyboard.

Hi, Ralph. The legs or side pieces can be adjusted to be either 6 or 9 inches apart, so if I understand you correctly, the stand would not be wide enough for you to slide the keyboard under the crossbar. In addition, the crossbar only sits about 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch above the tabletop, so you probably wouldn't have enough clearance. Hope this helps.

When it is in the lowest position, I put the keyboard on the small pull out section below the monitor that sits right on the desk top and may be has a thickness of 1/2 inch. Look at the fourth picture on Amazon that shows this. Hope that is helpful.

Yes, you could not install the keyboard shelf. It would add about 5 inches of extra leg room. You could also easily add the keyboard shelf after it's built if you change your mind (the track is essentially just hammered in, then a could screws to keep it in). Or you could build the shelf in to begin with, and just remove it later (however, this would leave the track installed... not a big deal but aesthetically not as nice).

Yes the little shelf comes off very easily. And the keyboard tray is almost the exact length or a regular keyboard. It's a great looking desk with a lot of room the only annoying thing is the instructions.

Curtis, that is correct. The keyboard tray easily slides under the desk. It's also height adjustable and swivels to either side. Sorry to sound like an advertisement but I really like mine. Well made and easy to use. The set-up directions could be a bit clearer but to be fair I didn't find it to be difficult to figure out.

I don't have the most precise measurement tools at my disposal, but the width between legs is roughly 16 1/2". You would be able to fit your keyboard underneath if you turn it slightly and then have approx. 2" to spare once it is underneath. The max height, as in underside clearance, is 5". The max height of the shelf upon which your monitor or whatever will sit is 6". Hope this helps. I'm still very happy with my purchase.

It is 20 - 1/2 inches high, but you would have to remove the shelf. My desktop fits very nicely on the open shelf, but on its side,

The monitors are about 4 to 5 inches higher when in the down position. The keyboard will sit on the lower position so is only about an inch higher.

The distance between the keyboard and monitor is about 11". As for changing the dist. there are 2 grooves that run down the monitor stand but I am not certain how to adjust it - but there must be a way to do it.

The base cannot be adjusted enough to allow a monitor to stand on it. In fact, when I opened my laptop on the shelf it covered up the monitor in it's clamp. There is also a weight limit, which I exceeded in the dual monitor station (plus laptop). When you exceed the weight limit the monitor and keyboard walk down the poll. If you have the right weight, it is fairly easy to raise and lower everything between a sitting and standing position.

It seems the space between the top two shelves will not be sufficient to house my 27" iMac. I suppose I could raise it by inserting a block of wood under the computer to bring the bottom of the monitor up to the level of the other two monitors I would like to eventually buy. I'm into flight simulation. If anyone knows of a desk better suited to that hobby, please let me know....thanks.

Mine Monitor is only 19 inches and I have room for speakers, phone, small lamp and mouse. However if you have a 24 inch, you would only have 3 extra inched to put anything on desk top. Top is very sturdy and I love mine and never worry about it. Hope this helps as if all you are going to put on top shelf, you will like this desk...

There doesn't seem to be a way to detach the shelf and keyboard stand because even if you remove them, the arm that they are laying on is still in the way. Ergotron's products are really great and affordable so I'm sure they have something that will just hold a monitor up. Have you checked out their site?

The depth of your desktop really determines the length of the track you should choose. If the track length is too long it'll stick out past the front edge of the desk you won't be able to push the keyboard tray back under the desk to hide it. Hope this makes sense.

The top of the monitor is 19.25" above the desktop in fully lowered. The front of the screen is about 11.5" from the back of the stand (or wall in your case).
