The Simple Houseware Monitor Riser is a heavy-duty storage solution made from stamped steel. Its primary feature is a sliding drawer and side pockets, which are very helpful for keeping a desk free of loose pens, mail, and charging cords. The steel mesh top is designed to allow air to circulate around your devices, preventing heat from being trapped underneath a laptop. Specifications indicate a static load capacity of about 40 lbs, which is plenty for most modern monitors and small office printers.
The unit sits on rubberized feet to prevent it from sliding around while you are working. While the drawer is convenient for storing A4-sized documents or a tablet, it does not use ball-bearing tracks, so it may make a small amount of noise when being pulled out. Because the height is fixed, you should measure your desk and chair to ensure the elevation is right for you. The side pockets are removable, giving you the flexibility to place them where they won't interfere with your mouse movements.
- Side organizers are perfect for holding frequently used tools like scissors or remote controls.
- Metal mesh design is durable and easy to keep clean.
- Under-shelf area provides room for a small laptop or a ream of paper.
If you need two stands to support a larger multi-screen setup, the Bontec 2-Pack offers a similar mesh style with adjustable height. For more metal-based organization options, see the desktop shelf risers category.
