Does the writing portion fold up or does the desk always stick out?

The writing portion does not fold up. it stays down so you can keep a lap top computer on it at all times.

Yes. The drawer pulls out and the front falls open so you have a flat surface for a keyboard. I'm using it for my keyboard and I have enough room left in the drawer for paper clips and pens.

Yes it does. Its a spiral, so just like a notebook you would write in. You can leave flat open or fold to show only half.

I think the roll out portion of the desk seems sturdy enough to use a laptop or books. I have numerous things including a printer on the top. The roll out portion has it's own legs for support.

It does not fold up. It requires adjusting with a wrench, so you should just plan on leaving it out all the time. I converted my office to a workout room and have this along with a few other select pieces of equipment.

If I understand you correctly...I would say no...it slides out at the same position you see in the photo, just below desk top. I do want to add one thing I recently discovered...my husband said he knew since he put the desk together...I was thinking one day all I needed was a slide out shelf and noticed just above the drawer it looked as tho it would slide out...it does!I keep saying...this is a wonderful desk. It has been perfect for my space and has most everything I could possibly need in a compact desk, for my space and my needs. realizing a desk is a very individual thing, but this one is just the best.

No, but it slides out to about waist level. I really love this desk and because it saves so much space in a small area, is very durable and even though it is compact it is very roomy. I have never had a computer desk this sturdy and compact!

It doesn't fold behind the mini like the soft cover does. However, if you flip it, as Collin said, the magnet will grab and they hold nicely together. You don't have to put the keyboard aside, which would be inconvenient when not at a desk

When you say fold, what exactly do you mean? I was able to write on the pad fine. You can even take the pad out if you'd like.

Yes, it folds flat for storage, and I take notes using it, but usually with the book on the stand and taking my notes with my laptop (even at my desktop), but if you meant to take notes with a tablet on the stand ~ maybe with a white board. Not sure about writing on a tablet or note tab with pen or pencil. Hmmmm

No it does not. It's actually a thin piece of leather and lays flat on the surface you're working on...it doesn't stick up like in the picture here. I usually fold it back under the keyboard actually and it's completely out of the way.

This unit does not fold up flat when not in use. The only thing that's adjustable is the angle at which the laptop sits up and how high off the desk the screen of the laptop is raised to be ergonomic.

No it doesn't and I don't believe it ever will. I've tried putting books on top of it, rolling it the other way, sticking it on the wall and stretching it out - the fold lines are still there...

The "divider" inside (you can see it in the picture) comes out. It is a very nice piece of furniture. I keep the "divider" inside but my hairdresser has the same piece of furniture with another matching piece and she uses the wooden "divider" on the top of the desk to organize things for her clients. I pray that this helps. God bless you!

The keyboard does not rise with the desk but the surface that does rise seems to have plenty of room to accomodate.

Yes they fold in. If you have set the table at an angle first straighten the angle back to flat position then fold the legs. I keep the folded desk under my bed when not in use.

Yes. The other is for chalk, or the roll of paper, can also fold down to a desk.
