CABTE 90° Foldable Arm Rest Shelf for Desk
Product description
What’s included: one CABTE arm rest shelf with attached C-clamp and mounting hardware. The package supplies everything needed to secure the shelf to a desk edge and fold it away when not in use.
Build and materials: the support structure is made from stainless steel for rigidity and rust resistance, and can carry up to 33 lbs without noticeable sag. The pad uses high-density foam for a balance of softness and support, wrapped in a breathable fabric cover that resists overheating during extended use. The clamp features non-slip padding to protect the desk surface.
Size and fit: the shelf surface measures approximately 10.24" by 10.24", providing a generous platform for forearm and wrist placement. The adjustable C-clamp accommodates tabletops up to 4.4" thick and tightens securely to most desk edges.
How it works: the arm rest pivots to a 90° position to extend off the desk and supports the forearm while you type, use a mouse or lean briefly. When you’re finished, the unit folds down to minimize obstruction. No power or wiring is required; assembly is straightforward and can be carried out in minutes.

Exactly what I needed
After comparing options I chose this and it was the right call — foam padding and fold-away function are great.

Comfortable and sturdy, minor flaw
Very comfortable and solid overall. One screw stripped so it doesn’t sit perfectly flush, but it still supports leaning weight well.
