2 out of 5 rating for Stiga Rosewood
The Mobo is an elegantly simple solution to a complex problem: using a keyboard with a desk that just won't take an adjustable keyboard tray. In my case, I have an antique rolltop desk with trim that I did not want to ruin by installing a keyboard tray and rails. This was the only product I could find that would do the job.
It was kind of a "duh" moment when I saw the pics and description: don't jerry-rig a keyboard tray to a desk not designed for one, just add the keyboard tray to the chair.
I have had my Mobo for a couple of weeks now and it works as advertised. It makes the keyboard comfortable to use and saves my rolltop desk. I can also sit my laptop directly on it if I don't use my separate keyboard. At the same time, I can still use the same chair with the mouse pads folded to work at our separate computer table.
This is apparently a new company with a new product. I would have felt better when checking the product out if I could have located a real address, phone number and better business bureau report. I hope the company sets those up soon. In the end, I took the gamble on legitimacy and it worked out okay. The product arrived quickly and installed quickly. I have recommended it to a couple of friends already.
Update (8-26-11): I realized this morning that I have had my Mobo for almost a year and a half and I still love it. I haven't had to do anything to it. It is comfortable for long periods. The keyboard tray doubles as a writing surface for those times when I have to work with a paper document (it happens). Mouse on one chair arm extension, cell phone on the other, keyboard in the middle and away I go. I wish I had thought of this one!
