I've had this stand for about a week now and really love it. I'm a college student who spends a lot of time on my laptop and desktop, and I'm tired of bending over my laptop while I work, so I bought this. It prevents neck and shoulder pain and frees up space on my desk. I recommend purchasing an external keyboard to use with it, but it's down to preference. This little thing is very durable and well made and comes in a nice carry case. This is perfect for my 13" MacBook Pro and also great for storing books! Highly recommended.
