- Eliminates neck/head twisting while reading or writing documents
- There is no need to twist or turn your head in order to read or write while using the Microdesk, because your documents can be placed directly in front of you on the sloped platform, thus eliminating any potential injuries to the neck.
- Reduces overreaching by freeing up space around your workstation
- By making use of the space between your keyboard and monitor, you no longer have to put papers around your keyboard in order to read them; that space can now be used to bring other essential devices closer to you, e.g. your mouse, thus preventing overreaching; conversely, if your mouse is next to the keyboard, you won't have to reach over your mouse to write on a document.

- Stops your body twisting when writing to the side of the keyboard
- Since the Microdesk is designed to fit between your monitor and keyboard, writing can be done without twisting either to the left or right of the keyboard. Writing at your desk no longer has to be a pain in the neck!
- Stops you reaching over papers to get to your keyboard
- By providing an elevated surface to place your documents, the Microdesk helps 'organize' your desk, eliminating the need to put your papers in front of the keyboard in order to read them.
- Utilizes space between keyboard and monitor screen
- The space between the keyboard and monitor is an ideal location to place the Microdesk, since it not only keeps documents in line with your field of view as you type and look at the monitor but also takes advantage of that otherwise empty space, so that you now have additional room on your desk for other things.
- The clear working surface allows you to see directly down to the desk below depending on the paper positioning
- Even in very space-restricted desktops the Microdesk's clear working surface will allow you to see through it to your keyboard so that you can still type effectively, even when the keyboard is placed under the Microdesk.
