I use a lap desk everywhere except in airports. First mistake I made was snagging a cheap one at Barnes & Noble. It warped right away. I then purchased another on Amazon that just didn't have the room for my laptop, so I started looking again. Everywhere on the net. This is the coolest lap desk - It is a great size for my laptop and plenty of room for the mouse. The padded wrist rests are such a relief I almost moaned. Being dramatic here. But it has been so uncomfortable trying to use other lapdesks. I had bought a great cooling pad called a Notebook Buddy that is amazing and takes care of the worry about overheating. It is terrific on this lapdesk! You have to go to their website (NotebookBuffer) to buy it, but it is absolutely the best (indestructible), simple, portable & cheapest method I've found for cooling. Together with this lapdesk, my setup rocks!

My previous review mentioned that the addition of wrist pads on the lapdesk was annoying. After using the product for several months I no longer find it so -- however they should still be removal like the padding underneath.

What I like most about the lapdesk is that the bean bag pad underneath forms to whatever surface it is on. With other flat coolers they can become tilted with any sort of small disturbance underneath. Plus the sides of it allow for an iPhone to sit next to a 15" macbook without a problem (and allowing for something else on the other side).

I was given this lap desk as a gift, and haven't been at all disappointed. Having used several in the past, this is the best of the best. It's not only comfortable with it's pillow, but the added touch of the wrist pads only adds to the comfort you experience. The carrying handle makes it easy to carry, and the finish looks great. The addition of the pencil holder on the bottom is just one other good feature.

Artrends really thought this through from start to finish. I can't think of another feature this lap desk requires. It's got it all, and their execution is top notch. Although it is priced somewhat higher than competing desks on the market, the extra cost is well worth it. You can't beat this for the price.

I just bought this today, and will admit I bought it locally for about 1/2 the price here at a certain "warehouse" type store. That said I'd pay the price here in a min, this thing is great!

I had what I originally considered a very nice plastic version but over the past year it's cracked along all edges and then once it cracked the little beads inside the bottom started escaping. Since this is solid wood it won't crack, it looks very nice sitting on my sofa, fits against my stomach comfortably, my macbook isn't sliding around like it did on the plastic one. I was worried the wrist pads would annoy me but they are actually comfortable and I just realized they stop me from pressing on the edges (a known issue with the white macbooks, they crack easily with any pressure), even the bottom cushioned portion is removable for cleaning etc. Size wise I can even fit a mug on the edge (do at your own risk).

I'm heading back tomorrow to buy another as my husband (who never used my other one) has been stealing this one all night for himself.

I originally bought this product from Costco and went back several weeks later to get a second one as a gift because I absolutely LOVED the lap desk. Costco was out of them so I did an online search and FINALLY found it (it was extremely difficult to find since I didn't know the manufacturer, so I was searching in the dark). I love everything about this lap desk -- wrist pads, nice wood, carrying "handle," cushy bean bag bottom, light weight. It's listed on Amazon under "health and beauty aids" and would probably be a much better seller if it were listed in a more appropriate category!

Tried several plastic versions of lap desks, which gradually buckled in the middle. Finally paid a little more and got this lap desk, which is extremely well made - rigid wooden desk with nice dark stain finish, wrist pads are very nice and built into the desk, they won't come out. I have a 17" laptop and I slide it a little to the left, which leaves plenty of room on the right to use a regular optical mouse. The padding underneath feels like styrofoam beads in cloth. I'd prefer something more solid, but that's me - and it's easy to remove if you want to. Great quality product.

Hands down this is the best laptop desk, perfect size, great quality, nice cushion, nice pads, and feels so comfortable. Buy it before they stop making it!

This lapdesk is totally AWESOME! Great quality. Solid wood-no cheap stuff! Very comfortable. I would strongly recommend it in a heartbeat. Fantastic! Exactly what it claims to be.

I received one of these lap desks as a christmas gift. I liked it so much I found the identical item on Amazon.com and purchased and shipped it to my future daughter-in-law in Las Vegas as a birthday gift.

This lap desk is sturdy to put your lap top on with the wrist pads it takes away the stress on your wrists when working on your lap top. It is comfortable on your lap with the fabric covered bead sack filled bottom under the wooden lap desk.

I'm very happy with mine and my daughter-in-law is happy with her's also.

Bought this for my wife's large laptop. I have one just like it and it works great. Has room for her laptop and external mouse. Great quality and construction.
