Simple TrendingSimple Trending 2 Tier Metal Monitor Stand Monitor riser and Computer Desk Organizer with Drawer and Pen Holder for Laptop, Computer, iMac, Black

This desk organizer took less than 10 minutes to put together and fits nicely on my desk. I have space to put pens, highlighters, paperclips, sticky pads, and more. I can also use the top shelf for my laptop or other storage. This organizer is sturdy and a good choice for my office.

The Simple Trending 2-Tier Metal Monitor Stand has been a great addition to my home office workspace. It not only raises my monitor to the perfect eye level, improving my posture, but also provides a neat, organized look to my desk. The two-tier design is perfect for keeping essentials like notebooks, pens, and sticky notes handy, while clearing up space on my desk. It has the perfect number of side pockets for all pens and markers I need every day.The metal construction is solid, and the design is sleek without being bulky. I love the added airflow it provides under the monitor, and it’s surprisingly easy to assemble. For anyone looking to create a more ergonomic and tidy workspace, this stand is a fantastic solution. Highly recommended!

The shelf was easy to build and is very sturdy. I currently have my work IMac on it with no issues or bending. The drawers and side slots really help with organization. It doesn't take up too much room and fits well on the corner of my desk. The height is good as my neck no longer hurts from the monitor being too low. The shelves space isn't too high but can fit smaller items like stapler, sticky notes, or small notebooks.

I'd like to preface that there isn't a ton of options on Amazon when looking for a monitor riser that also provides storage. Here's my in-depth review on things I found interesting during assembly. Photos included!1. Instruction Sheet: Could be better at material distinction, particularly Parts C & D. Aside from that, it's straightforward. No misspelling like others have mentioned, it looks like every other build sheet.2. Screws: I noticed another reviewer mention annoyance between the screws offered which differ at the head. I understood what they meant literally speaking, but didn't fully grasp why this would be annoying until I did it myself. Included in the box is an allen wrench hex key. However, as shown in my photos, one of the screws required a screwdriver - which is not provided. I have one on hand but not sure why there was a difference...odd. First world problem, had to get up out of my seat and go to my tool box lol. Shame (jokes).3. Back Panel: It's actually loose. That back panel is actually too small for the stand. Idk why they constructed this piece as so, but I found it weird. You can't do anything about it, it still sits in the designated slot but you can shake it if you find yourself at the back of the monitor stand which is unlikely. Still, not sure why it isn't a flush fit.4. Side Panels: For my purpose I didn't want to use both side pockets so I simply didn't include the left panel. It is simply hooked on the side which I found odd because it is definitely not "secured in" by means of a fine fit or use of screws. However, putting things inside, and just by virtue of the side panel, it's not wobbly. I do enjoy the flexibility of including or removing as you see fit for your table.5. Storage: Plenty! For whatever reason I thought the drawer provided in this stand would sit on a pulley like a typical house drawer. It doesn't, the drawer sits on your table and just slides in and out. Has 3 sectioned off areas. As shown in my photos, a variety of items can fit wherever you please. I actually don't have enough items so I added to it. I purchased this stand in case my set up changes in the future and requires more storage which this definitely works. Going back, I enjoy the flexibility of including/removing the side panels as you see fit.6. Assembly: Took like 5 minutes lol. If you're not so saavy it may take you no more than 10 minutes.7. Height: On even other products I saw people complain about the height of the stand with respect to a monitor on top. For me, I wanted my laptop to match the height of my monitor for ergonomic purposes. If you have a monitor, which likely has a small built-in stand, you for sure will be looking at some minor tilt up. Be cautious if you only want to raise your monitor slightly, then perhaps a 1 tier stand may be a better fit for you. I also have a standing desk so there's a plethora of ergonomic options for me with my given set up but to each their own.8. Color/Material: There's only black, which I wanted white but I digress. If they had more than one color I'm sure this stand would be much more competitive than it's competition. I also didn't want a metal, grid like stand....but with the other options, this was my best shot for my preferences.9. Price: In my eyes, I think the product is overpriced. I would lean more if it was closer to $20-25 range like most of it's competition. For a near $34 product, I want every part to fit flush together, and everything lay secured. For reasons above, this product does not meet those standards.Overall: 4/5 = back panel not fitting, side panels "secured" by simply hooking it onto the stand rather than being built in, "lack of tools provided/screw head inconsistency," and price. I enjoy it, there's not much variability on Amazon, and it's a straightforward product. There's not much room for creativity lol. If you need a stand and can afford this product, go for it versus the other alternatives.

I work from home full time and I needed a small riser to sit my laptop on next to my desk to bring it up to eye level. This was the perfect height, is very sturdy, looks good and the extra space to hold pens and notepads works great. It's a good addition to my home office. Great quality for the price. 10/10 would recommend.

I use this with my laptop so the open structure is helpful for venting. I found that the drawer and side "pockets" are helpful. I was pleasantly surprised when I finished putting it together. I'd been struggling with the positioning of my laptop previously and I'm noticing my eyeline is appropriate to prevent neck strain while on this stand. It is sturdy, unobtrusive, and I would buy it again if I needed another.

I am very glad I decided to get this riser over other available options. It was easy to put together, only taking about 10 mins from box opening and finishing. It has storage options galore, although I'm a messy person, no amount of storage is ever enough for me! Anyway, the riser sits atop my standing desk and has a 32-inch LG monitor on top. The footprint is relatively small and by bringing up the monitor, it opened up the sides so the space is better utilized. The storage is golden. Two removable pencil/accessory holders hang on either side; one open space under the monitor and a divided drawer on the bottom. It is super useful and looks nice. : ) A++++

Plenty of compartments to organize desk. Compact and clears space while proving storage.
