The power strip, the cable snake and the tissue box end up on the floor under your desk. The Stowline under-desk cable tray clamps under the desk top and holds them within arm's reach, off the floor and off the desk top.

Best for: desk tops 0.4 in to 2.0 in thick with a straight, reachable edge. The tray hangs from two screw-in clamps, so nothing is drilled into the desk or the wall. The base and long sides are perforated mesh, so a power strip inside is not boxed in. Two lengths: 13.4 in and 15.7 in. Both are 5.0 in deep and 3.1 in tall. Black or white.

Not ideal for: desk tops thinner than 0.4 in or thicker than 2.0 in. Glass or thin hollow-core desk tops. Sloped, curved or bevelled desk edge profiles. Wall mounting, because this clamps under a desk. The maker does not publish a load rating, so no weight limit is stated here.

How to choose: Measure your desk top thickness. It must be between 0.4 in and 2.0 in. Measure the length you need: 13.4 in or 15.7 in. Check that the underside of your desk edge is straight and reachable, not curved or bevelled. The maker's drawing shows 8.1 in from the desk top down to the underside of the tray, so check clearance below.

In the box: One mesh tray, two steel clamps, and the screws to attach the clamps to the tray. The maker describes no assembly step, so none is promised here.

Second one for the basement

Bought my first one for my upstairs office and just ordered another for the basement desk. Both 15.7 in black. They hold a power strip, cables, and in the basement one I also keep a small flashlight and some batteries. Clamps are the same solid design on both. No issues after months of use.

Does the job, assembly simple

Screwing the clamps to the tray took a few minutes and the instructions were minimal but it's pretty obvious. I put a power strip and my external drive in it. The mesh sides are good for ventilation. Only thing is I wish the tray were a touch deeper, my drive barely fits with the cables plugged in.

Fine but hangs lower than expected

The tray is good quality and the clamps are strong. My issue is it hangs about 8 inches below the desk top, which I didn't fully picture. It's fine for a desk with open space but my desk has a keyboard tray and it bumps into it. I moved it to the side and it works there. Just be aware of the drop.

Great for standing desk

I have a standing desk and needed somewhere to put the power strip that wasn't on the floor where it would get yanked when the desk goes up. This clamps under the top and moves with the desk. No more cables pulling loose when I raise it. Works exactly as I hoped.

White matches my desk

I was worried the white would look cheap but it's a clean matte finish and matches my white desk top well. I have the 13.4 in. It holds my power strip and a little tray of office supplies. The mesh bottom lets me see everything without pulling the whole thing out.

Great, but watch beveled edges

My desk has a slightly beveled front edge and the clamps only grabbed on the flat part, which was fine but a bit tight. If your edge is more curved than mine this might not work. Otherwise it's a solid tray and keeps my stuff off the floor. I'd measure your edge profile before buying.

Held up after two months

I've had this under my desk since early March and it hasn't sagged or loosened at all. I check the clamps every couple weeks and they're still tight. It holds a power strip, a USB hub, and a bunch of cords. The black finish still looks new, no scratches or rust.

Wrong size for my setup

I ordered the 13.4 in thinking it would be plenty but my power strip is bigger than I realized and it doesn't quite fit lengthwise. That's on me for not measuring. The tray itself is fine, sturdy mesh, easy clamps. I'll probably order the longer one and keep this for a smaller setup.

Sized it right this time

I measured my desk edge first, it's 1.2 in thick, and the clamps fit with room to spare. I went with the 15.7 in because I have a long power strip. It fits with maybe an inch of slack on each end. The underside of my desk is straight so it clamped flush. No complaints.

Ten minutes and done

No assembly really, just screw the two clamps onto the tray and clamp it to the desk. I had it on in under ten minutes with a Phillips head. My old setup was a power strip zip-tied to a desk leg which looked terrible. This is way cleaner and I can reach the outlets without crawling under the desk.

Good, but load rating unknown

Works well for light stuff like a power strip and some cables. I wanted to put my laptop power brick and a small speaker in it and it held fine, but there's no stated weight limit so I've been cautious. The steel mesh feels solid though, no flex with what I have in there. Would buy again for a lighter setup.

Cleaned up my cable snake

I had one of those cable management sleeves and it was still a mess. This tray let me route everything along the back and now nothing touches the floor. I used the 15.7 in in black. Deep enough that my power strip sits flat with room to spare. Sides are mesh so I can see what's in there.

Nice but glass desk owners beware

The tray is good quality and the mesh looks nice, but my desk has a glass top so the clamps don't really work. It slid a bit the first day. I ended up moving it to my wood desk in the other room where it works fine. Just a heads up for anyone with glass, this isn't the one.

No drilling was the selling point

I rent and I'm not allowed to put screws in anything. This clamps on with two screw-in brackets and that's it. I put a tissue box and my phone charger in it. Nothing fancy but it does exactly what it says and it came off clean when I rearranged my desk last weekend.

Solid but check your clearance

The tray itself is well made and the clamps feel sturdy. My only issue is I didn't think about how far down it hangs. My desk has a drawer unit on one side and the tray sits about 8 inches below the top, so I lost a little legroom. Not the product's fault, I just should have measured first. Still works great for holding my power strip and the cable mess.

Bought a second one

Got the 13.4 in black for my desk at home back in February and liked it enough that I ordered another for my work office. Both clamp on solid and neither has shifted. I run a power strip and my docking station cables through it. The perforated sides are nice because I can loop zip ties through the mesh.

Perfect for my home office

Bought the 15.7 in white one for my guest room desk setup. The white matches my IKEA desk top pretty closely, close enough that I don't notice it. I keep a small power strip, my laptop charger, and a little bin of pens in there. The mesh means the power strip doesn't get hot which was my worry.

Finally off the floor

I had a power strip and a rats nest of cords just sitting on the carpet under my desk for two years. Measured my desk top at 0.75 in thick and the clamps grabbed it fine with no drilling. Took maybe ten minutes to screw the clamps on and hang it. Now everything is off the floor and I can actually vacuum under there.
