Customer Ratings & Reviews

I use this item a lot now, even with a 17" laptop.

excellent laptoo sitter great protection no spills

I don't really use this- my husband thought I'd like this- but not overly useful with my iPad with the rugged messenger/ keyboard.

The slit at the top holds my tablet perfect!! I do wish the table was a little wider so my mouse and keyboard fit

It serves its purpose but cost more than I like and I didn't need all the extra features it has.

Decent lap desk but unfortunately my wife did not like it so I had to return it.

It might be ok for a tablet, but is too small for an average size laptop

did not have much of a choice stock very limited styles and types.

recipient loved this uses it everyday. great girt idea

Granted there's not too much to expect from a product titled, lap desk but i'll try and be thorough with the review. So first off, i don't often use this on my lap. I actually bought it initially because i use my laptop in bed quite a bit and having a laptop lay on a soft comforter is like a laptop's nightmare. Laptops need to breathe, even though some have exhaust vents on top by the screen, or on back, the intake vents are almost always on the bottom. Guess what happens when you place your powerful new ~$1000 laptop on a soft bed.. no, not that you dirty person! I joke, your laptop will not be able to breathe any intake it will pull through all its sensitive internals will be dust and linen fibers and whatever else- hair in my case :/ This if you did not know, is very bad for laptop, laptop not like heat and dust, and worse off, now laptop gets angry and hot starts slowing down so as not to overheat, now you're wondering why your relatively new laptop is so slow- this can most certainly cause that (not always duh). To the product, so this product has a nice hard, flat surface perfect for allowing your laptop to get the cool, clean air it deserves, laptop happy, laptop user happy. So the surface of the lap desk looks like a silver carbon fiber weave, obviously it isn't but it's textured and it seems real durable actually, I've had no issues with cracks or scratches or anything though i'm not rough housing the thing so ymmv. The built in wrist rest is cushy and does a good job though my complaint would be that it picks up dust and stuff as it's porous, though thankfully this won't affect your laptop, it just looks bad and i'm particular to these kind of things. My biggest con, and the reason i did not rate this 5 stars is that the surface while textured, is not grippy. Every time i want to put it on my lap and lean it away a bit my laptop slips off (away from the wrist rest). I don't like this and it seems like a major design flaw as your lap is not always a perfectly flat surface, most of the time it won't be an issue-until it is. Now for me, this only warrants one star removal because as i said at the beginning, i don't use this on my lap very often, i use it more as a stand to place on the bed as i sit in front Indian style or however in front of it. Aside from that, the bottom is also soft but no so soft as to compress under the weight of the laptop which is a good thing. The lap desk has a handle on the rear of it though even while using this at the store carrying it to the register i felt rather doofy, it is light though which is good for the traveler (if you'd bring this traveling i'm not real sure why). Also a note, there is a slot on the top toward the back for sliding in tablets and this is actually what is shown on the package material though personally i don't see why you would buy such a large product to slide a <10" tablet in as there are much more compact options out there, however for those interested i tried it with my Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4" and it is solid/reliable enough, in the landscape orientation-which if i were to ever use this i don't imagine using portrait- the bottom of the screen is cut off because of the depth of the slot. I specified the name of the tablet so you can see the thickness of the side bezel and think how your tablet would fit accordingly. Good luck if you got through all that, i see no point in writing 3 word or 2 sentence reviews as their are plenty of people who already do that. I try to write the review i would appreciate reading were i in the market for the product and had to spend my hard earned money.

My laptop was oversized for this lapdesk. Love the idea of a lapdesk but would be better suited to laptops ranging up to 14 inches.

Not good for a laptop, better off using pillow. Will not cool laptop.

Bought as present for my teenage daughter - she likes it and hasn't complained (a plus as far as I'm concerned). It's lightweight and has comfy padding in the memory foam bottom. She uses it for her 15" laptop and hasn't used the slot.

Versatile compact and comfortable. Soft padding and color design matches my mac perfectly.

Needed one for a while. This one is as good as one would expect.
