Customer Ratings & Reviews

This item is reasonably priced and affordable. For the price it gets the job done. Since using it I have no more issues with my computer getting hot. The fans are not loud and it gets the job done! I recommend this item.

The bottom of a laptop stays very warm without proper ventilation, contributing to damage that could occur. I bought this fan for my daughter's new gaming laptop, and it really works well. You can hear a faint hum, knowing it's working the way it should. It plugs directly into the laptop, so there are no dangling wires. I would recommend this laptop fan by Targus.

This is a great product. The fans are very quiet and do a great job with cooling, all for a very reasonable price.

So much better than my previous cooling pad! I have a 2012 13" MacBook Pro and my last cooling pad couldn't handle the weight. It pressed down on the pad and the the fans blades wouldn't spin. Not this one - I love it! I will say that my 13" laptop covers the entire pad, so it won't be useful if you have a larger device. I just plug in the USB and the fan works great! There are also 2 small rubber "nibs" that stick up from the base so the laptop doesn't lay flat and allows the air to circulate. It's also lightweight so I can sit on the couch comfortably and use my laptop.

Quiet and effective cooling mat. Light weight and very comfortable to use for multi sized laptops. Keeps your equipment cool with prolonged use

It does what it's supposed to, it blows air on the laptop. My biggest issue is with the legs on the thing. They are hard and they are smooth, which means the cooling pad slides all over my lap desk. It has a rubber pad to hold the laptop, but of course it is exactly the length of the space between the legs on the pad. If they were non-slip, it wouldn't be an issue. If I lose the desk so it doesn't slide, then I have four hard balls digging into my legs and the fans can't breathe (better design would draw the air from the sides and have a flat bottom as my old pad was) It moves a lot of air, and so far my laptop has kept its cool. We'll see how it does next time I'm editing video, but I'm sure it will help. Too bad the review that sold me on it was clearly for another unit or I might have passed. Not sure how you review the wrong item, but I guess they did. This really needs an integrated USB hub.

Purchased it as I run a cooling fan with both laptops. This one is under my MacBook Pro. Very quite with no issues to report. I like the price point and the size of the cooling pad.

I have an older laptop that has internal fans that no longer function as they should so I use a cooling fan underneath my laptop to keep it from over heating. This cooling pad works great and is very quiet. It is very light weight and does what it is supposed to do.

For $34.99, with taxes $44.61 It's a little high for what it's worth, but it does it's job quite well, using a thin and light laptop with a relatively capable CPU, normally it would run at 60C idle, now at 48C, Which is quite a significant change, and runs very quietly. But this product should have really been more like $30, maybe $25 at the lowest? I'd still would have bought this at $30 at least, it's mini usb, which is a bummer, but it does at least come with a cable, and it's easier plug in then if it was micro usb, and the port would probably last longer. Ideally it should have been USB C, but considering this unit was still made at least 7 years ago, judging from the oldest reviews, and is still selling to this day, is quite a testament on how effective and, in a way, more durable, but simple, there is not even an on or off switch, so I just connect it to a spare battery pack I had lying around. Will this last a couple years, probably, maybe even more if taken care of. Overall, it's simple, made of decent hard plastic, but just a little overpriced.

Would recommend! Bought for an Hp Victus laptop. Keeps it cooler, by about 20 percent.

The right size base for my laptop with good air flow. The fan is so quiet that I sometimes have to check to make sure it's running!! A good product for the price..

Very affordable and keeps my gaming laptop cooler.

Nearly silent unit to help keep my kids gaming laptop cool but you do lose 1 usb port to run it but otherwise its pretty thin and does a nice job.

This is very lightweight and is quiet. I have had cooling pads in the past and they were heavier and when the fan was running it was a little noisey. This one is not uncomfortable when using it on my lap. Perfect size! Worth the money.

Pros: Laptop cooler is quiet, lightweight, durable, and has nice design. It is able to fit 15 inch or smaller laptop nicely. It is composed of black plastic shell. two fans and a plug in usb cable. You can place the laptop cooler on you lap, if you desire. The cooler has four fixed feet that elevate the base by 1/4 of an inch allowing air to flow from the bottom of the cooler through the fans and grill to the bottom of the laptop. There is an ample amount of air flowing from the cooling pad, to cool your laptop, air from the cooler up to the bottom of the laptop's ventalation. The cooling pad air blows upwards. The cooler is small and light enough to travel with L13 1/4" X W 9 1/2".X H 1" It is affordable. I got mine on sale. Cons The usb cable is short at 18 inches. It has no on/off switch and no indicator light. The two fans are fixed. You cannot re postion the fans to align to the vents under the laptop. The fan speed is not adjustable. There is no place to store the cable in the cooler base. There is no storage bag to carry the cooler. Height is not adjustable and unable to change the angle of the cooler.

Yes it did make a rattle noise when I bumped it, but a tap or shake made it all quiet again. So to simple to be a problem realistically. If your internal fan are getting week. This is a lifesaver to keep alive until you replace the internal fans. Room temp is at 71F and close to the AC as well. Without this fan running from the USB it will just freeze up. It does not seem like all that much air is moving, yet no freeze up when it is doing the job now for 2 weeks. So I am happy. New fans are on order and the geek squad will be seeing me soon to install them.

I am a fan of Targus products. This unit COMES WITH A CORD IN THE BOX. DON'T LOSE IT, or the fan won't work. The fan works when you plug the mat and the laptop together. IT ONLY WORKS WHEN THE COMPUTER IS ON. When the computer is off, the mat stops working as well. I don't find this to be a problem. The computer does need to sit on top of the mat as the fan is not too strong. RUNS WITH EXTREME QUIET. I love that.

This works with a 17" laptop and is BETTER than the Targus cooling pad designed for larger laptops. Why? Because this has full vent design meaning it helps air flow everywhere. The fans are also positioned more to the rear of the pad which aligns with the typical location of video cards and vents on a laptop. Since I have started using this my laptop cooling fans rarely kick in. FYI this is powered by a short removable mini USB cable. It does not come with external power, you power it via your laptop but you can use a 5v mini USB A external power / cable if needed.

I bought this to go with my new laptop, and it works great to keep it cool. It is also very light and fits in my computer bag with no problem. However, be aware the product description is not accurate-this is not a usb hub, there is no place to plug in any usb devices-it is only a fan to keep it cooler. It is also not adjustable.

Amazing cooling fan. I game every weekend. Keeps my laptop a good temp while it’s running. Definitely a necessity when having to game on a laptop. With a good price.
