Review on πŸ’» Enhance Your Workflow with the Odyssey LSTAND L-Stand Laptop / Gear Stand - Including Clamps by Randy Butler

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great product, quite durable, takes up too much space.

Perfect for my Yamaha P-35. On its lowest setting, it barely fits an inch or two above the keyboard, which is exactly the height I wanted. At its lowest setting, the clearance at the smaller end of the stand is about 7 inches, meaning if you have something much shorter your computer is significantly taller and can't be shorter. The stand itself is all metal, but it comes with little foam stickers to stick on it to keep it from scratching your computer. The metal brackets that fit your desk are fairly narrow, so they fit under the keyboard very well, but with the addition of foam, it's about a quarter inch tall, so it might not fit under everything you want with them. Even without them, your table probably won't support much. They flattened one side of the legs at the factory, leaving sharper edges only on their tops. My only complaint about it is the angle of the base of the stand. My 15-inch MacBook Pro Retina still has about half an inch of headroom in the back, which isn't really that bad, but the base is almost another three inches behind. This means that in a fully upright position, your laptop takes up 13 inches of your desktop, placing it much farther on the table than you would like. Rather than being flush with the wall, it sits about 4 inches apart. So if you have a narrow table, you haven't wasted a lot of space. I also don't like that it has a logo on it, but I'll probably paint over it soon.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • For old
