21-12-2024I ordered this as a birthday gift for my MIL, who loves rose gold and has been elevating her monitor for a couple of years with a wire shelf organizer designed for the pantry or kitchen cabinets, then stashing stuff on a tray underneath. Since were talking about upgrading her to a second monitor when we build her a new computer (her old one was cobbled together from pieces that survived a lightning strike in 2016), shes going to need a new monitor stand anyway, and this one is right up her alley in terms of functional style. Most of her days are spent on the computer, watching videos or listening to audiobooks while shes crocheting, petting her cats, and occasionally playing games, so this will be fantastic. This stand is made of the classic wire mesh seen in offices all across the US for the last 20-odd years or more, but in a trendy rose gold metallic finish. That was only a little bit of a draw for me; Ive passed up dozens of rose gold items when looking for the perfect gift for her, because they werent something she needed or werent functional enough. But this organizer nails the functionality as well. Itll raise her monitor about 6, roughly the same as her wire shelf does, and uses that space underneath to fit half a dozen different pen cups as well as two removable drawers. Both drawers are divided, so this monitor stand/organizer ends up providing 14 different compartments sized for things ranging from paper clips and post-it notes to angled scissors, fresh pencils and pens, highlighters, and trifold brochures. The drawers are slightly too short for a business-sized envelope, though. But my MILs retired at this point, so shes generally not storing envelopes anyway. Blu Monacos products are generally more expensive than I usually purchase for myself, but this is my MILs 65th birthday gift, and I want to give her something that will last and be used pretty much daily, so its worth the extra expense to give her something shell really love.

> 3 dayAdds extra space to my desk. Each drawer is divided into a big section and two small sections.

> 3 dayThe monitor may be too heavy for this because the top sinks a bit and makes the drawer feel weird. The drawers are not on any rails or anything, they just slide out. Its all made of the same sheet metal material The site pics show it used with a laptop which I think would definitely be a more appropiate use of this. Probably works best for a student, but it may be too pricey for a student budget. I think it can make for a much appreciated gift

> 3 dayI have found this to be quite durable. I did put another organizer on top of it with no issues. It was easy to put together and the drawers work very easily. I also like that it truly is the rose gold color that I was expecting. Its so pretty in person. The pictures online dont even do it justice. Its the perfect addition organizing my desk for sure.

> 3 dayThis is prettier than I expected. Fits more than I thought it would. I like it. I bought it for my computer monitor then decided I’d rather have it on my desk vanity for makeup storage. This is a beautiful versatile product that can be used for so many things.

> 3 daySmall organizer that packs quite an organization punch! First, the product came well packaged in a fancy box that matches their logo. It was well-designed and made for the product. It felt very expensive when opening the package. The color pops, it’s a beautiful rose gold wire frame. I was impressed when I pulled it out of the box. There was no assembly, only taking it out the box. I had to rearrange my home office for it to fit well, and initially I wasn’t too impressed with the stability of it. It rocks a bit. It seems there is a slight grade in the alignment. It rocks slightly, but not enough to cause a hazard to my computer. If I was afraid of the stability I would not put my iMac on this. The drawers in this organizer is NEXT LEVEL though. Each drawer has little compartments that fit all the things that just kind of “hung out” on my desk, so I feel so much neat and cleaner now. This was an excellent choice for my set-up. It’s higher than my other riser, but it’s not too high. I actually like the view.

> 3 dayThis thig has TONS of room! 3 holders on each side, and 4 in each drawer. It seems very sturdy so far with my dell laptop on top of it. The netted style of it makes it easy to kinda see inside if youre adhd like me and things go outta sight outta mind. Im currently storing extra post is, a stapler, pen refills, staples, stickers, a mini notepad, dry erase markers, regular pens, white out tape, regular tape, and label maker refills inside of it. The only thing is it is slightly bulky, but still a nice accent.

Greater than one weekWhen I got my stand, I was worried it wasnt going to hold a Monter very well, but I was wrong! Its strong and study and the Rose Gold color adds that perfect pop to my desk! The pern holders hold a lot more pens than I expected! And the drawers have little built in dividers so it doesnt really turn into a junk drawer I can organize it! So, I love this! Adorable and perfect for my organizing brain!
