If you’re choosing between the VIVO 36″ and the compact no-drill cable tray, the decision really comes down to desk size. Both work. It’s a question of fit.
Quick Answer
The VIVO 36″ ($29.99) wins if you have the desk space to justify it. For a standard desk with modest cable load, the No-Drill Tray ($18.99) is all you need — and it saves you $11.

VIVO 36″ — $29.99
36 inches is genuinely useful on a wide battlestation. L-shaped desks, sit-stand desks with lots of peripherals, ultra-wide setups with multiple power strips — this thing covers the whole run. VIVO’s build quality is solid; this isn’t a flimsy basket that’ll sag under load.
No-Drill Cable Management Tray — $18.99
More reviews (31 vs 14), lower price ($18.99), handles a standard power strip easily. For most home offices and gaming setups, this is plenty. You’re not missing anything by going smaller unless your desk actually demands 36 inches of coverage. Check price at Walmart.
The Call
Wide desk, heavy cable load? VIVO 36″, $29.99. Standard setup? Save the $11 and go with the No-Drill Tray, $18.99 — it has more reviews and does the job at a lower price.
