Review on Computer Aluminum Adjustable Ventilated Compatible by Jarrett Young

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Perfect for your new home office

This simple stand is surprisingly durable for the price. I won't be into it, but I'm not worried about how it will hold up when I carry it in my bag or use it around the house. Your angle/height settings are limited. Extreme highs are basically useless to me. But the positions I use suit me. I use a setting to find the right angle when working at my desk with an external keyboard, trackpad, and second monitor. The hinge on my 2019 MacBook Pro won't open far enough for the highest settings, causing the screen to face down. It just requires some padding under the front legs. Unfortunately, when I'm in the office a lot, it's quite finicky, so I often use the bottom position. When I'm working at a desk away from my desk, a few slots below the screen is a comfortable height than usual, and the keyboard has a better typing angle. It's sort of a compromise between the two, but that's the nature of laptops - neither this stand nor any other stand can do anything about it. The anti-slip pads are very effective and really make my laptop more secure than it is. is on her own. That alone would be worth the price to me if I were to work standing at my desk again. I used to twitch every time my laptop slipped slightly on the table. This will not happen with small bumps when using this stand. And when I'm on the go, it's very easy to quickly fold the stand up and throw it in my bag. The included drawstring bag comes in handy for extra maintenance if you're worried about the aluminum frame scratching something in your bag, and keeps the stand clean. I use it most of the time when I go to a field gathering. All in all, these (and probably many similar examples) are a great addition to your laptop setup, whether you're on the go or sitting at your desk most of the time. Time.
