I have a 17.3 inch MSI laptop and it is holding up well. The all-metal construction is a nice bonus, and it doesn't budge when tilted. Whether on a table or a kickstand. The laptop itself hangs a little on each side, but that's not a problem as it's held securely on the stand thanks to the laptop's rubber feet, which ensure it doesn't move thanks to the metal desk portion of this stand. general. The ONLY small issue I have is that it takes a little more force to tip the stand than I expected, but if that means it stays secure then it really isn't an issue.
