For Prime Day, Amazon is debuting a huge 40% off discount, which brings the Charge 6 down to an all-time low. The deal is only for Prime members but if you are not a member, you can take advantage of a 30-day free trial to join in on the action. The Fitbit C

Staples Union & Scale FlexFit Desk Converter Review: Reliable Riser

The included keyboard rest is optional to install, though the whole thing is designed to work together. It's a little annoying. I wish you could roll the tray into the riser to hide it, which would go a long way in making the FlexFit look a little more elegant, and could also help with storage. You also can't adjust the height of the tray, so while I didn't have issues typing on a keyboard, I found my wrist cramping up a little when using my Apple Magic Trackpad because it was a little too low.
