    The stand had a great price. Cools with no noise. Is USB powered so needs no plugs. It's just the basic cooling stand so thereare no extra USB connections. Very efficient and gets the job done.

    This laptop cooling pad has a fan you can plug into the computer so the fan works. I didn't know that upon buying. I figured it out when I opened it and lifted the bottom. The fan works and cools down the computer if it does get too hot. This is a bit steep for the price but well worth it. I just wish it was padded and not just solid because when it gets cold, the bottom on legs is cold.

    Good basic cooling pad, light, fits easy on lap or table, I easily forget it's there. Cools my system well. I do have a gamer friend who also has one, he runs his computer pretty hot it does not work so well, but for the average student and computer user, its a handy little pad.

    It does cool off my laptop, good product. You can use this any where you use your laptop. It connect to the laptop for power. It's thin and light and easy to carry around. I like the way the cord that you connect to the laptop tucks away underneath the cooling pad.

    Bought this for my large laptop to help keep it cool. It's basic and easy to use. I first bought one that cost more and it ended up not being as good as this one! I would recommend this to a friend!

    Works perfectly!!! Often I use my laptop to watch tv programs in bed so the laptop on the soft surface was overheating. I was concerned about damaging the laptop so I bought this cooling fan and it works perfectly. No matter how many hours I have the laptop running it stays cool. I highly recommend.

    After 30 days it started making all sorts of noise. It has a 2 year warranty, and I am trying to get it replaced as we speak. WORKED GREAT until the noise started. I am hoping I just got a defective one. Still did what it is supposed to do.

    Worth the price. I tried 2 others that were more expensive from other stores but they didn't do the job of keeping my computer cool. With this one the laptop is cooler and it fits easily in my computer bag. Clean and simple which is exactly what I wanted. I've been using it daily now for about 4 months without any issues.

    I use my laptop for about two hours every night on the couch. Without this to keep it cool im pretty sure my computer would not last very long. It works great and keeps the computer tem at bay!

    i use this cooling pad on top of my lap desk. i originally bought it when i played PC games such as roller coaster tycoon or sims. my laptop would heat up and i needed something to keep it cool. this cooling pad did the job. it has rubber underneath so it doesn't move around the lap desk and stays in its place. the cable for this cooling pad is also strategically hidden so you only take out what how much ever you need. overall, a pretty good buy.

    I am very happy with this cooling pad. It works well and was inexpensive. My only complaint is that there is no padding on the bottom for when I have my laptop resting on my lap. After a while the part of the cooling pad that rests on my legs gets uncomfortable. Other than that it is a fine product and I would purchase it again.

    it works well to keep your laptop from overheating. I use a I-5 laptop and I use it for gaming. I use the cooling fan to keep my laptop from overheating. it works well but it does drain the laptop power (just a little bit). overall, it works well. =)

    Keeps the lap cool under a laptop computer

    I purchased this item to go under the laptop computer I was buying for her that same day. It has a USB fan included, which really does help keep the laptop cool. However, the fan does use some of the batter power from the computer, so the battery does not last as long. When the laptop is plugged into a standard electrical outlet, obviously, this is not an issue - only an issue when running on battery.

    When I first saw this item I thought it looked weak and un-supportive of my laptop. I thought my laptop could break it because it is so thin. It also does not seem sturdy. But wow it work great and it is very strong. The fact that it is light, makes it even better. I no longer use my laptop without having the cooler plugged in. And since it is so light I do not mind carrying it with my laptop.

    Well, in the time I've been using it, it's worked great and kept my Macbook Pro much cooler than without it. I assume that will help with battery longevity, if nothing else. It makes a little noise, but I don't hear it when I'm watching video, when it would probably be most annoying. It also raises the laptop up in the back, which I really like, it makes it feel more comfortable to type.

    I bought this cooling pad for my Mac because it overheats so easily when it is on my bed. Its easy to use (just plug in the USB, no installation required) and really cools down my computer. The only thing is sometimes my laptop will feel a little too warm for my comfort with the pad plugged in after long periods of use. Otherwise, its a great product.

    I purchased 3 for my kids and it actually keep them from sitting the laptop down on a flat surface which in return can cause the fan to burn out.

    I use my laptop very heavily and it has shut down due to overheating many times. This product has kept that from happening, even when running for 14+ hours. There is no way to attach the unit to the laptop or move the fan itself, but the Air Flow Wave circulation works very well. It feels like an a/c is connected to it now. Works well on desks, or even on carpet if needed. Although cheaper than other products I've seen or that Best Buy carries, this easily matches their performance and is well worth the money. Be aware, on laptops that have minimal USB attachments, you might have only one option to plug it in. Overall, great product!

    It is great. Holds the computer (15'6) firmly, and it does not slide. The computer fan does not turn on at all and helps with the speed of the computer. It is light and easy to use. I use it at home. The only con is that you need to remember to unplug it when you put your computer to sleep or hibernate, because if it plugged the computer stays on.
