Product Insights
The Tobias Side Table by Gus* provides a 22-inch typing height that keeps forearms relaxed and wrists neutral during laptop use from a sofa, fitting a 13–14 inch laptop and compact mouse side by side on its 18-inch width, though its 12-inch depth leaves about 3.5 inches in front and an external mouse may hang off. Integrated rubber bumpers prevent sliding on hard floors but stability may decrease on carpet. The table ships fully assembled, saves floor space, and features a walnut wood veneer with a low-VOC, non-yellowing water-based finish that requires avoiding hot mugs and prolonged spills. Its 22-inch height aligns with sofa seating, and its slim profile fits tight spaces while coordinating with other Gus* furniture for a unified aesthetic.
