Kensington Extra Wide Monitor Stand
Last updated: 5 October 2026
The Kensington Extra Wide Monitor Stand is a 60cm platform on steel legs that lifts a screen of up to 32 inches and 20kg off the desk. It costs £22.99 on Amazon UK, sold by Amazon, and it needs no tools to put together.
It is the riser under my own Apple Studio Display. I checked the price and specification on Amazon UK on 5 October 2026.

What the Kensington Extra Wide Monitor Stand is
It is a long, flat shelf on two steel legs. The screen sits on top, and the space underneath takes a keyboard at the end of the day, or a laptop, a notebook or a hard drive. Kensington's model number is K55726EU.
It does one job: it raises a screen that sits too low. The Health and Safety Executive's display screen posture guidance says the top of the screen should be level with your eyes, about an arm's length away, and many screen stands do not reach that.

Who it suits

- Laptop users with a second screen: the screen goes up and the laptop or keyboard goes under it.
- Small desks: the space underneath gives back some of the desk the screen took.
The limits
The height is fixed, so measure from your desk to your eye line before you buy one, and check it gets the top of your screen there. There is no adjustment if it does not.
It also carries the Kensington logo on its front edge. On my desk that is the one piece of branding I would rather not see.
Where to buy it in the UK
Amazon UK sells it at £22.99, sold and dispatched by Amazon. It is pick 03 in my best desk accessories guide, under the Studio Display.
