I bought 3 of these so far, because when you need a nice-looking desk that will fit in a small space, there's not much to choose from. I use it in two ways: (1) put a laptop in the keyboard drawer and use an external monitor and keyboard on the desktop, like a docking station. (This is particularly useful if you have a laptop with a damaged keyboard and/or screen.) (2) use a laptop on the desktop and use the keyboard drawer for papers, pens, etc.
In both cases, the keyboard in use is on the desktop and because of this, I cut 1 1/2 inches off the leg bottoms so
that it is not uncomfortably high. Still 5-stars for usefulness and construction.
