Really uncomfortable.
They are situation-ally useful... my Fellowes unit is sitting boxed up because I don't have such a situation at the moment. Two moves ago I had another one, which is unaccounted for... but was useful when I had a narrow table beside the bed with a machine on, and keyboard could "reach out" toward me on/in it. You don't have to have them too high, maybe this isn't creepingnet's first rodeo because we see the desk surface beside this machine is a little higher.
Possibly mine might get deployed for a "just a pile of machines" workstation, sitting on like 4 desktops, or 2 midis with a desktop on top, or two full towers, plonk keeb tray on it, monitor on keeb tray, KVM and monitor on it.
Unicorn herding operations are proceeding, but all the totes of hens teeth and barrels of rocking horse poop give them plenty of hiding spots.
