I didn't really realize how useful this stand is until I put my laptop on it. The stand is very solid and it takes a lot of effort to get the height and angle right. It's very niche as it means the whole thing doesn't wobble or fall apart when you have to tap it. However, if you use this, you will probably end up using an external keyboard most of the time. I also like that the camera view is much better with the new height than the awkward bottom view, which is good for ongoing work from home. After all, it frees up space on the desktop.
