    Does the job and love the angle adjustment! Personally i use this to cool off my gaming laptop during any use and have noticed the increase in rendering speeds when i am editing videos. Especially with the touch of angle management, i consider this a great buy!

    Bought it because I thought I needed it. The replacement laptop I purchase has so many exhaust fans that are doing their job quite efficiently. I am going to keep it to use with the other laptop.

    Would be nice if it had type c inputs but otherwise nice. The fans could do a little more cooling but as I have a gaming laptop it’s doing as much as it can

    Good Fan Base but not perfect

    There does not seem to be a perfect laptop fan base for larger 17" laptops. With this one there is a lip at the front to stop the laptop from sliding off when tilted. Larger laptop has to sit on top of this lip so laptop's back feet are still on base. Base is a little too lightweight and flexes when typing on laptop keyboard. I don't use the base with separate keyboard; all I want is extra cooling. The tilting mechanism is what makes the base flimsy. The 4-port USB 2.0 hub is very nice feature. The base looks good. The 2 fans seem to do at least the same job as my previous fan base, but make less noise.

    Great at keeping my gaming laptop cool! It also props my computer for better ease of use. It is quiet and I forget it's on while I'm gaming.

    I use this for my gaming laptop and it works wonderfully. I don't plug it into my laptop, instead I plug it into a portable charger. The charger can run it for about 48 hours. It works well.

    I bought this to replace an older chill-pad I owned that developed an extremely loud amount of fan-bearing noise when it was first powered up. I did a fair amount of searching to compare the different models offered by Targus and others, and this model seemed to hit the sweet spot between price and features. It's nice that it's USB-powered, so you have one fewer power supply you have to find an electrical outlet for, but the overall build quality of the unit generally speaking seems a bit cheap and flimsy. I like the tilt feature. It's raised my laptop screen up quite a few inches higher compared to where it sat before, and tilting it up also had the effect of creating a significant amount of space for the air underneath the laptop to circulate in; I can easily feel plenty of warm air that's being expelled. But then, after using it about a month, all of a sudden fan-bearing noise began kicking up at start-up on this chill-pad too, and you could distinctly hear the pitch of the different noises coming from each of the two fans. No lie: after starting up my laptop and chill-pad, I LEAVE THE ROOM for five minutes to give the fan bearings time to do whatever it is they have to do quit making that annoying, grinding noise. Even so, I like it enough to plan on continue using it until I feel I've got my money's worth out of it, at which point I'll trash it and begin shopping all over again.

    I like the light weight of the product. I love that it has 4 ports so I can plug in more items because my laptop only has 3. The fans could be stronger, but since I only have 4 gigs, it's workable.

    I am pleased with my new cooling system that I purchased from Best Buy! My laptop gets too hot, so this cooling base keeps it from overheating. I highly recommend it!
