Item is often defective
I would have given this keyboard a higher review if it was not defective. My work bought this one at OfficeMax. The mouse pads’ lowest point was at least 3/4″ above the keyboard tray. I should have realized something was wrong, but after a couple of days it really started to hurt my mouse arm. Be careful! If you got a defective tray, return it. I called them and they said it could not be fixed and to return it. It appears the hardware to attach the mouse pads is wrong. The online description on the Kensington site says the mouse pads can adjust above and BELOW the keyboard tray. If yours doesn’t, send it back before you hurt yourself.
Otherwise, the adjustability of the tray itself was not that bad. I’ve had better and I’ve had much worse. There is not much knee clearance below the tray and I kept hitting my knees.
Update (2/9/2012): I also found some auctions for this item here.

DON’T buy it!!!
The one I got is different from what we see on Kensington website! Even the model number is the same, but what the clip video shown on Kensington website is different! Please make sure if this is the right one you want!

This thing is Dangerous
This Platform is terrible. It is absolute overkill as far as technology…much too large and heavy. The installation instructions are pathetic. The color code operation is unintelligible. The worst part is that the clamp operation is downright dangerous. Release the clamp and it snaps down with industrial strength so hard it could break your fingers or maybe worse. I’d call this the Jaws of Death design…with no instructions about how to operate it safely. I didn’t buy it from Amazon. I bought it elsewhere from an outfit that has a pathetic return policy (big mistake). I’d rather throw it away that deal with it.
