But is that measurement just the unit or the hight of the knobs included in that measurement. I wanna get cracking on the slide out tray before I get the keyboard. Thanks.

      @trashtuber6021 10kg sounds like a lot. The runners are quite sturdy, might be worth checking the specs to see if it can hold all that weight.
      In terms of leg room-depends on how much space you need. Measure your space, and see if it’ll work for your needs
