Vertical Notebook Computer Riser With Cable Management, 9" X 12" X 6.5" To 9.5", Black/charcoal Gray, Supports 20 Lbs

I absolutely love this laptop stand and highly recommend it! I occasionally work from home and needed something to prop up my work laptop to use as a second screen due to not having a docking station. I researched several options on Amazon along with watching videos online for several of them. In the end, I decided to give this one a try. I was a little worried it wouldn't be stable enough to hold the heavy 15" laptop or that the bottom lip might not be big enough to prevent the laptop from sliding down, or out from the bottom, but that is not an issue at all. The laptop is very stable and I never worry about it sliding out, even when I adjust the laptop screen or plug in different things (keyboard, mouse, charger, etc.) The angle makes it perfect to use the laptop as a second screen, especially with the different adjustments you can make to the stand, but the angle makes it very difficult to use the keyboard on the laptop to type. I planned on using an external keyboard anyway, so that isn't an issue for me. If you plan on typing on the laptop, not sure this would be the best choice. I store it on its side after every use and was worried I may have to re-tighten the adjustment screw every once in a while, but that hasn't been an issue either. Probably my favorite thing about this stand is it doesn't take up a ton of room, which is ultimately why I decided to give this one a try. Some of the other stands I was looking at had a much bigger footprint. They would have taken up a lot more room on my desk, which would make it difficult to put an external keyboard and mouse in front of it, but that isn't the case with this one due to it's small footprint. I've used the stand for several weeks now and I have been extremely happy with the purchase. I would definitely buy this again and wish they would replace our stands at work with this one.

I've been using this with my Lenovo ThinkPad X230 at work for group coding sessions at the conference table, and it's worked great. It's light and yet quite solid and stable.With most (or all?) MacBooks, you won't be able to use the highest settings, because the range of MacBooks' hinges is limited -- that's not the fault of this product, though. For MacBooks, you need a stand rather than a riser if you need a good deal of height, and a stand that's as stable as this riser is going to be bulkier and/or heaver.This riser wouldn't be suitable for me for permanent use, as even at its highest setting, it's not *quite* high enough for full-time ergonomics. This is partly due to the laptop I use it with being a 12.5" widescreen (i.e. short). But this is a riser, not a stand; I don't believe it was designed for full-time primary-screen use. To me, this is a tool you can take with you for when you need to do actual work on your laptop away from your desk. At your desk, you should use an external monitor, and either keep your laptop closed, or put it on a fairly high stand so it can be at the neutral ergonomic level that you have your monitor at -- you do have your monitor on a stand or arm, right? :-)To give you an idea where I'm coming from, I haven't met a height-adjustable monitor yet that can stretch tall enough for me while sitting right on the desk. (At this point, you may be wondering if I'm a giant; no, I'm slightly under six feet tall. I just take ergonomics pretty seriously.)Now all I need for even better portability is a light, wireless ergonomic keyboard and mouse. Alas, those are much harder to find than this was.

Well, I just got a new laptop for college, and one of my friends recommended I purchase a laptop riser (this one, specifically). As a computer science major (and pc gamer!) I spend a lot of time in front of my laptop screen, and a riser would prevent having to spend all that time looking down. The product has been quite good; my laptop weighs over 5 pounds, and the riser holds it without any issues. It is quite sturdy. It is easy to assemble and disassemble, and adjusting it take less than a minute. However, it has one problem: on the bottom of the product, underneath the lip that holds up one's computer, there are two rubber strips that cover bottom edges of the riser and provide added traction and support against a desk. However, one of them has consistently fall off my riser. I can easily put it back on by pressing it back onto the plastic, but still, I was somewhat disappointing. It seems like coming from a company like 3M, adhesive failure would be the last thing you'd expect, but still. For this reason, I will not give this product a five star rating. Other than that though, it has been great. I would definitely recommend it.

I love this thing.I was using my laptop (standard IBM Lenovo) as a third screen in my cube at work, but it felt very far away and too low when compared to my two other larger monitors. I bought this and it allowed me to move the laptop much closer to me, and I was able to raise the screen to eye level to coincide with my other two monitors. Basically, this laptop stand is sturdy enough for me to have my laptop open the whole way and thus the laptop is perpendicular to my desk. (I basically have a cockpit at work now and get a whole lot of comments from others in the office.) The one curve ball I had is that I use a docking station at work. The docking station fits on the stand just fine without compromising the balance of the laptop sitting on there. It's still very sturdy. My docking station is smaller than the base of the laptop, so I put the laptop on the docking station first, then place the laptop/docking station on the 3M stand. I thought about somehow attaching the docking station directly to the stand so it stays up without the laptop, but I just haven't gotten around to it.Overall, the stand is sturdy but light. It also breaks down/adjusts very easily and was available for a great price. I am thinking about getting one just for my home office as well. It just saves surface space if you do not need to use the keyboard/mouse on your laptop. Highly recommend.
