      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. Targus

    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.

      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. Targus

      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. Targus

    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.

    Won't recommend it for its quality. Hidge can't hold a heavy laptop and its plastic. It is an odd set up to lift the chill mat.

    Not happy at all with this mat, it is very loud under normal conditions and sometimes one of the fans rubs against something as it is spinning and makes a horrible noise. The tilt feature is poorly designed, both sides of it elevate separately and are a pain sometimes to get them on the same level.

    So far, so good

    This chill pad seems to work as advertised. Fans are good, quiet. Unit is sturdy and the ability to alter the angle is nice. It lies flat enough to not be a nuisance while using on a desk. While the power supply would have been nice to supply with the package, the need for it totally depends on the power output of your laptop's USB port. It DOES work without the power supply. I am using it to run my wireless USB mouse just fine and it is not only providing signal but is also CHARGING the extra battery I have for it. If the USB hub is not working for you, it means your laptop's USB port is under powered. Not unusual. Do not know how many devices it could power at once, but really I just needed the one since it takes one away from the laptop, so all is fine. Would have been nice if the rubber pads were larger to touch more of the bottom of the laptop to hold it better, but my 15.6 WS HP laptop is being held fine with this pad. The bottom "lip" could be a little bigger as well for the same reason.
