Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I am the kind of person that likes a laptop for mobility. I'm not stuck in one room where the computer is I can take it with me. Also, I am a gamer which means I can't have the laptop sitting just anywhere - I need it on a solid, comfortable surface that offers stability and airflow...this desk hit the nail on the head for my personal ideal desk needs. Here is my pro and con list of it all. Pros : - LOVE that it's ultra lightweight - It is the perfect size for my Toshiba Satellite , haven't tried it with the thicker dell but for the Toshiba it's just great - I have a larger laptop and it fits perfect with some space to spare (an inch or two to spare on the side) -It's made of aluminium so it's tough and durable! - The black vented lap desk comes with a little side tray that attaches easily and effortlessly for your mouse and the plus in that is you don't even need a mouse pad with it but I do choose to use one. - The table section has enough of a ledge to keep the laptop from sliding off even when the desk part is on an angle BUT they have provided you with two slip on clips for added non-slip/ to accommodate thicker laptops. - This desk does have two fans and they seem decent enough quality. They are extremely silent and do a great job keeping my laptop cool as a cucumber while playing a cpu/gpu intensive game like Rift. Normally an expensive fan would be needed to play this game while on a desk BUT your laptop is supported in the air with clear and easy air flow, no wood or stone desk suffocating your pc so the fans on the desk are more than enough to please any gamer. Now, if you have a dinosaur of a laptop and are trying to play system intensive games...this won't be ideal for you as most likely your laptop is not up to par and barely qualifies to play such games so expect your laptop to run beyond HOT - there is no fix for "old" laptop outside of getting a new one sadly. - I adore I get the option of turning the fans on or off with a flick of a switch. Facing the user and under the table top is a little black on/off switch. Also, there is a usb cable that attaches to your laptop for a power source, it is removable so it's not dangling under your table if you aren't using it. - The legs on the desk move in the most incredible ways. There is no angle these little suckers can't move AND they can be positioned differently from each other to literally accommodate any angle/incline/decline. There are times when I have one leg positioned one way and the other leg positioned on another angle to offer me stability on strange inclines. Sometimes I am on a surface where the right side of the laptop is lower than the left and this laptop is the answer...stability on every angle for me. - This lap desk doesn't really jiggle or shake, I mean if you kick it or hit it it will but it never tips over (anything tips over with enough force though), it's never come close to it thank goodness. - It folds up very, very thin. I can slip this under anything and no one would really see it it's so thin. Under the bed, under the couch even. It's not bulky one bit. Cons: - I wish the side tray mouse pad was a tad bit bigger, it is more than enough for me in the time I have used this lap desk but I like having roaming space. - The aluminum legs have plastic joints, I am unsure if this plastic is a cover for the aluminium or if indeed it is plastic. It seems like a hard plastic but I just have bad luck with plastic altogether. I am a bit worried it will break in the future. - I am a woman with long nails and the buttons on each leg to adjust it give me a bit of a hard time. They are sometimes difficult to press when only my nail tip can reach the button to press it. Some times my nail bend in a hurtful way, other times my nail just breaks so I've started using small things made of metal to press the buttons in for me. Over all I love this desk and am extremely pleased with it on every front. It's lightweight and stable, easy on the eyes and just looks cool! Anything that allows me to use my laptop comfortably on the floor or in bed, sitting up leaning against the wall or on the sofa, in a chair or anywhere else is amazing to me. One of my best purchases to date! If this broke tomorrow I would order another the very same day I am so pleased with this. 15 out of 10 thumbs up from me.
