Simply outstanding.

For years I was against monitor risers and stands as a concept easily defeated by VESA mount on monitor arms, but I overlooked a secondary function that monitor risers have: Display and storage.
I have too many keyboards. Three that I regularly use. Now I can throw two of them in a drawer when not in use, or I can look at them and appreciate them all the time. Iโm not a fan the usual keyboard displays either: awkward acrylic stepladders that they are. So had to figure out something else.
I also have a headphone amplifier that I like quite a bit but was just sitting out on the desktop.
So I looked at seemingly every monitor riser that exists on Amazon, and elsewhere and found that this Fenge product (Rodin on their website) fits the intersection of value, good build quality, and beautiful design aesthetic. Unlike the Hexcal shelf, which has great build quality and design, but costs $600+, for $109 (at time of purchase), you get a visually intriguing multilevel riser with aluminum hairpin feet, good sturdy materials, a beautiful (albeit synthetic) warm walnut finish (though available in four other finishes as well). Cleans easily with a dry or lightly damp rag. This isnโt your Mind Reader riser with all function but being an eye sore. Itโs also pricey enough and has an interesting enough product to feel premium without being unreasonably priced for what you get.
Building it was a pleasure. Packed so well, and everything in order as far as parts go. Wasnโt missing any, assembled so easily, and even better to see in person than in pictures.
I have a 72โ desk and had to rearrange some things to fit it, but well worth it. It serves the functions I need, but if you need more from it (like holding your devices), thereโs another variant with phone, headphone and laptop stand built into this design. Also, if this isnโt visually interesting enough, thereโs a third version with RGB and an acrylic lower shelf to create some illuminating pop on your workspace. As you can see, my workspace has no shortage of illumination as is, so I skipped that.
But I think it did well. It partially displays my keyboard collection, stores my headphone amp, can hold a pen or two as I study, and I donโt need it to do much more on the regular.
I know it wonโt fit every desk aesthetic, but if you already have tech statement pieces on your desk, this may be the perfect complement.
