Cheap Plastic!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Cheap plastic! Says it will accommodate up to 17" laptops, but don't even try it. Your laptop will be substantially overhanging on all sides, if it could actually handle the weight.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from Targus Team
Posted .This chill mat is compatible with most 17" laptops as long as the dimensions do not exceed 14.00" x 10.50" x 1.00" (W x H x D). Although, made of plastic there are some metal supports to help with weight of laptops. If you have questions or concerns about your chill mat please reach out to our customer support team at 877-482-7487 Monday thru Friday 10 AM to 7 PM EST.
Cheap but not good
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was a bummer when I tried to use it! It didn't cool my laptop at all and is this cheap plastic! I was disappointed in purchase and returned it to store!
No, I would not recommend this to a friendOverpriced, small, cheap build
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The concept is great, should be priced around $15. The plastic is so light it feels fragile, there are no pads or anything to keep the laptop from sliding around.

No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from Targus Team
Posted .We are sorry to hear that the chill mat does not seem to be helping to cool your laptop. We are also very saddened to hear that you will not plug it into the laptop itself due to spyware fears. Though somewhat understandable we feel that you may find it works better and you will have more options that way. If you have any questions please contact our customer support team at 877-482-7487 Monday thru Friday 10 AM to 7 PM EST. They will be happy to help.
not so good mat
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It seemed like such a grreat deal. then it began making tons of noise and I cant seems to get it to stop. It is now pretty much useless
No, I would not recommend this to a friendChill Mat fan very noisy and was returned
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased to replace a Targus chill mat that had gotten noisy after over 5 years of continuous (24x7) use. Some reviewsof this chill mat complained about fan noise for this item but based on my past experience I bought it anyway. The amount of noise from 1 of the 2 fans was worse than the noise from my old chill mat. It could easily be heard from other rooms. If I could have given it a rating of no stars, I would have.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendNot a good idea
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I found this actually blows the hot air back into the laptop. It was getting hotter then normal.
I would recommend this to a friendBrand response from Targus Team
Posted .Hello, the fans are designed to circulate that air around the laptop. They are not designed to blow cold or hot air on the laptop but to circulate what is already there. We are sorry to hear that this fan is not working out for you. Our customer support team would be happy to help you find an option that would work better. They can be reached at 877-482-7487 Monday thru Friday 10 AM to 7 PM EST.

Weak
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got this hoping itd help cooling my razer 15 just a bit but i saw no changes in temperature on my laptop at all would advize against it
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from Targus Team
Posted .We're very sorry to hear that the Chill Mat you purchased was inadequate. Please note that gaming systems, especially when running high-graphic use games, can run very hot. The Targus AWE57US is specifically designed to work with these hotter-running systems. This would be the cooling Chill Mat that we would recommend.
Broke

Not a fan
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I thought I was going to like this product, but I don't. I liked it for the sale price and for a few days after I bought it. However, that changed because every time I turn my computer on, the fan of this product makes a loud and annoying sound. I am not satisfied with it.
