    Overpriced and didn't cool my gaming laptop at all

    Didn't notice any drop in temp using this stand. There is no fan control or power control on it so I have to unplug the USB cord on it to turn it off. I have an MSI 18" gaming laptop and it fits fine on it, but it just isn't powerful enough to cool it down. It's fairly noisy considering it's size and the small fans in it. I don't recommend it. Find something what with bigger fans, LEDs, and a fan control dial or switch on it. This is way too over priced for what it is.

      We’re sorry to hear the Chill Mat+ didn’t meet your expectations. This model is designed for general-use laptops, not high-performance gaming systems, so it may not provide the level of cooling needed for a device like your MSI 18". We appreciate your feedback on fan control and noise—our team uses input like this when improving future designs. If you’d like, please contact us at 1-877-482-7487 (Mon–Fri, 7 am–4 pm PST) so we can help review options that may better suit your setup. Targus

    I bought this for my 10 year old for Christmas to go with her new laptop. It is strong and sturdy, yet easy for her to use. She uses this in her bed with her laptop and she loves the extra usb slots so that she can charge her phone and ipod. This is easy for her to use on her own and easy for her put away.

    Does What it's Supposed to Do

    There's nothing wrong with this cooling pad. My only frustration was that I went in to get a different model, which according to the Best Buy website was available for store pickup. I got there, and they didn't have it. Ended up paying about $20 more than I initially intended. I'm not sure how that can happen. With UPC technology, scanning products in and out of the store, how can they possibly not know they don't have a product on hand? I assume stock management systems talk to their website.

    Despite the thin build of the hinge supports, this has been great for my wife and her sister. The Chill Mat is quiet, includes some USB outputs, and collapses well for travel. It's nice to be able to prop it up on a table, and it's never ebbed down or slid from the "upright" position on either one of them.

    This unit has done a good job of keeping my laptop cooler. With the ability to change the elevation, it makes it easier to access the keyboard with less strain on your wrists as well. Not real crazy about the height adjustment mechanism. Took a bit to figure out how to get it to go back down after it was raised.

    Ok product, but made of plastic and kind of flimsy. The legs don't always lock into place when raising up the pad and the fan has begun making a weird noise. The extra USB ports are nice and it does help keep the laptop cool at the expense of the noise.

      Thank you for your review, Jonathan. We're glad to hear the extra USB ports and cooling functionality have been helpful, though we’re sorry to learn about the fan noise and leg stability issues. That’s not the experience we aim for.

      This product includes a 1-year limited warranty, so if the fan noise continues or worsens, we’d recommend reaching out to our support team for assistance or a possible replacement. You can contact us at support.targus.com or by phone at 877-482-7487. We’re here to help! Targus

    Product is decent, Targus normally makes a good chill mat, had bought one previously with a nice soft cover for my lap. This one however did not, and leaves rigid marks on legs or knees. It does allow for an adjustment to angle which is nice as well as 4 port usb hub. Fans can end up rubbing as with most mats causing some loud noise, but not very often (so far).

    Bought this for my 16 year old son for his Birthday and he says it's awesome! It's easy to adjust the angle so the laptop sits just where you want it. The fans work great and are not too distracting. The extra USB ports are very handy to have. My son is happy-- so I am happy!
