Sturdy little stand
This stand was fairly simple to assemble and didn't take long. There was a chip out of the corner of one of the top panels. But no one is ever going to see that because the printer lives on it now & forever. The bottom shelf that is more exposed is pristine without any flaws. The drawer is fabric and it looks like the pattern repeated at an unfortunate spot on the front panel of the drawer and looks like a stripe or a crease just to the left of the handle. It's hardly noticeable because my printer actually overhangs the front of the stand so you can't really see the drawer unless you're across the room. And at that distance the flaw isn't noticeable. Even though I measured for purposes of fit and ability to accommodate my laser printer's size and weight, I was a little perturbed that I trusted the photos with the product showing a couple of binders on the lower shelf under the drawer. That is misleading because as you may be able to see from my pictures, that space is not tall enough to hold a binder. Again, though, the measurements in their specifications were accurate. After looking at many different stands I whittled my list down to a few that I liked and chose this one from those finalists relying a little too much on the pictures. Sometimes having so many acceptable options makes decisions even more difficult. But I'm not mad, just disappointed. ;) They provided a set each of either adjustable stationary feet or casters, depending on your preference. I have the stand under my new motorized adjustable height standing desk and I may need to roll it out from under if I choose to lower the desk, but that's probably not happening any time soon. The casters do roll easily and can be locked. I was expecting the casters to be white as depicted in the pictures, but I got black which is perfectly acceptable to me but thought I'd point it out anyway. The stand is supposed to be able to hold up to 88 lbs. The laser printer on it now is probably a good 40-45 lbs. And as I said it slightly overhangs the back and front. I could've oriented the printer to fit sideways but then I couldn't easily access the front panel of the printer or the drawer and frankly it would've looked wonky and bugged me. I use the scanner bed a lot so I will need to roll out the stand to be able to open the scanner lid. I'll also need to roll out the stand to open the printer to change the ink cartridges, clear paper jams or do any internal maintenance. This stand gives me all that flexibility with ease. For the money, I forgive the small chip and drawer front flaw. This stand fits perfectly under the standing desk and looks neat and professional. I would recommend it. Read more
