The Bed Desk is a small portable table top with short legs that fit on either side of your lap. Similar to a breakfast tray in design, the Bed Desk is smaller, more manageable, and has a slanted top for easy viewing in a semi-reclined position. It can be permanently set at an angle or adjusted to accommodate any angle, including the ability to lie flat.
With a Bed Desk you can work, read or write for longer periods of time without getting fatigued. Holds books, your laptop, clip-on lights, sheet music, magazines, keyboard, papers and crafts.

Fitting and use
- BedDesk height. One size does not fit all. Custom leg heights are available for an additional fee.
- The standard height is a good reading height for most people. On the standard unit the desktop is 11.75" high when the platform is closed flat. (Actual leg height is 10.5".)
- If you are petite you may need a lower reading height.
- For typing on a laptop, you will probably want your BedDesk much lower for comfort.
If you already have a BedDesk, the manufacturer offers a leg-exchange program.
- The Bed Desk is best used on a firm, stable surface. The legs do not lock into postion, but stay in place when they are fully opened, flared, and expanded out to their 15° position. Keep this in mind if you use the BedDesk in bed and someone tugs at your covers.
