Review on ๐Ÿ–ฅ๏ธ SIKER Cooling Pad for 14-17 inch Laptops - Gaming Notebook Cooler with 2 Large Fans, USB Powered, Adjustable Mounts Stand, LED Lights by Erik Snyder

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good cooling pad, you need a quality cable.

I purchased this dual fan cooling pad in August 2017 and am writing my review in May 2018. So my original purchase was delivered on time and left on my doorstep. When I opened the package, I immediately noticed that one of the two USB ports was damaged. I can only assume that's how it was assembled and skipped. I contacted the seller through Amazon and informed them of the damage to the USB port and quickly received a replacement cooling pad. The included cable is short but long enough to reach your laptop and access one of the USB ports for power. Another issue I would like to point out is that the cable appears to be very fragile and delivers enough current to power both fans if left untouched. If I grab the cable while it's connected to the fan and my laptop, there is a current drop from the laptop to the fan and the fans will slow down and the lights will dim almost completely. As soon as I let go of the cable it works fine, I just wish a better quality cable was supplied, maybe with a heavier gauge wire to allow for DC power. Aside from the previous mentions, this dual fan cooling pad works great. I read some reviews and noticed that some people have problems with the tabs holding the laptop breaking, but I haven't had this problem myself. I place my laptop properly on the pillow, undo the tabs and it stays perfectly in place. They feel flimsy and are on a plastic loop. So if you carry your laptop on a pillow, they can break. To prevent this from happening to anyone, you should fold the mat completely, fold down the tabs and hold the unit with both hands when transporting/moving your mat from one location to another if it is a short distance . It worked well with no issues other than loss of power due to cable movement, otherwise I would honestly give it 5 stars.

Pros
  • Pretty packaging
Cons
  • Vulgarity
