I use this laptop stand, not on a desk, but with my keyboard so that I can follow tutorials online and/or connect the keyboard to a DAW on the laptop. It's strong, solid and inexpensive. The only caveat is that the join between the base of the stand and the upright is not flat but angled for more strength. When using on a desk this is no problem, but under a keyboard it means the back is a little higher than the front. This won't affect most people but it's worth pointing out if anyone else, like me, is trying to find a solution for positioning a laptop screen over a controller midi keyboard. Recommended
