Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Same sentiment as Suliman... you can find his review by filtering reviews to 3* only and his should be first, I marked as helpful and commented. ========== Please note all of my testing occurred with the KLIM cooling pad running at max on BOTH adjusters. ========== This device does nothing, but lower your laptop's fan speed. temps are nearly identical under 60% CPU load or higher. The only variance I noted was the min and max both grew farther apart (the range from min to max was 7c without the pad and 10c with). I would expect at idle, temps will be lower than without this device though as the internal fan will be shut off at that point. The rear legs are a 2" lift, plus an extra inch for the device itself, this makes the back end of your laptop 3" higher than flat and 2" higher than the front. I will be buying thermal paste and pads to do a teardown and replacement on my laptop to easy the high temps. I have had no issues with the front supports breaking like others mentioned (in the 3 hours of ownership I have so far). The front fans hang out a bit if you use the laptop supports, so cool air blows on my wrists, not necessarily a bad thing... ========== Pros nice lift, good angle quieter than my laptop was makes my laptop fans run slower, so quieter the Blue LEDs are covered under the laptop legs to keep laptop from sliding off has a passthrough USB port keeps my laptop's fans quieter (said twice, because that is really nice) ------------ Cons LEDs - no idea why people want this under the laptop, they don't shine out the sides... does not allow my laptop to run cooler uses up my only free USB port not good for your lap, needs a solid flat surface under it (doesn't bother me, but will bother others) no overall change in laptop temps (said twice, because this is the main selling point and should be explained in the description) ========== While Suliman gave this a 3* rating, I am giving it 4*s because there is nothing wrong with the device itself, only the description of it. Giving this device a low star rating, because it does what EVERY laptop cooler is going to do isn't a good idea. Giving a review that explains how the device actually works is a better plan, and Suliman did this too, which is why I gave him a helpful mark on his review. I did give this device a 1* for gaming on the features though, because your laptop will most likely be at max fan during gaming with or without this cooler. ========== My overall feelings on this and ALL laptop coolers of this style (I contemplated getting one that attaches to the output and pulls air out of the laptop, those may work better, but didn't have the space for it in my setup) is don't buy it if you don't have an issue with the sound levels of your laptop's current cooling system. Personally I did and as such this device is working for me, if not in the way I wanted (as you can see in my screenshot my temps are just way too high on this laptop, the max temps listed were after 3 mins at 100% cpu all cores with some fluctuation of not more than 5% on any one). As such, I will be ordering some thermal paste and pads and then will do a teardown and replacement of the existing. reviews on this process for my laptop series shows 10-25 degree decreases overall in Open Hardware Monitor from performing this, vs. no temp change and slower fan speeds from a laptop cooler... I am hoping combining the two will net me the ability for the internal cooling fan to shut off when I use this cooler.
